Jackson was a man of few words, yet taught us so much. He led by a quiet example. He was an incredible athlete and avid sports fan, constantly cheering on the Alabama Crimson Tide. Jackson loved being outdoors any chance he got. Jackson is known for his love of hunting and being a loyal friend; but most importantly for being a devoted follower of Christ. Jackson clung to his faith and told anyone that would listen that "God's got this." Jackson inspired countless individuals and encouraged their own spiritual walks.
Jackson noticed a knot on the side of his jaw in May 2017. After many doctor’s appointments, tests, and surgery, Jackson was diagnosed with Ewing Sarcoma, a rare violent form of bone cancer. In July 2017, he went to UAB where they discovered multiple spots on his lungs, too.
After praying for direction, his family decided to relocate to Houston, TX for 10 months as Jackson would receive chemotherapy and radiation along with additional surgeries at MD Anderson. In May 2018, after the conclusion of treatments, Jackson and his family moved back home to Alabama, and Jackson continued to have 3-month scans done. He received clear scans for a year.
But in May 2019, a scan determined the dreaded news. Jackson's cancer had returned and he had a spot on his skull. Once again, Jackson and his family packed their bags and moved back to Texas for surgery and chemotherapy at MD Anderson. However, Jackson wanted to be closer to home, so he could enjoy hunting season. Jackson and his dad traveled to USA Children’s Hospital in Mobile frequently for another 10 months during treatment. He finished chemotherapy in February 2020, then he went to Houston to have radiation.
In May 2020, Jackson received the news that his cancer had spread to his liver, and nothing else could be done. At the age of 17, Jackson entered into his Savior's arm completely healed and pain-free on March 8, 2021.
