You never leave my mind or heart..always there always present ..memories flood my heart every day! I love and miss you beyond words !

My brother, I miss you so much. I could always talk to you and you always understood. I miss our talks, our time together. I wish I could have taken your illness and your pain away. I have loved you before you were born. Once, I heard you cry early in the morning, I thought I would take care of you and let mom and dad sleep in. I changed your diaper and picked you up and was going into the living room, from the bedroom. The bedroom was a step up from the living room, and someone had left a wash tub in front of the step, which I did not see, and I stepped in it and fell with you in my arms.Mom and Dad woke up and they were both yelling at me. I protected you as I fell, I held you up so you would not get hurt. Once they realized you weren’t hurt, they were ok and not so mad at me. At least they weren’t yelling at me anymore. I loved you then and I love you now. I will forever miss you.

Its been 5 months Bubba..I miss you so very much..I'm sorry your celebration of life didn't turn out to be what I was hoping for! Another lesson learned..you deserved so much more than what was given ..! Love you forever and ever..
Sissy!

Today is August 26th..I've learnt A lesson in these past three months since you have been gone.. You probably know all about it in Heaven so I won't go into detail..but I'm so very disappointed in people especially the ones who we thought were friends.. You got cheated out of a funeral because of this stupid Covid. Now there is a hurricane coming that might steal the memorial I had planned for you.. Looks like nothing went in your favor in life and nothing in death! I'm sorry Bubba..Ill fight for you in death just as I did in life..!it hasn't gotten easier..I pray nightly that maybe you will come in a dream to let me know you are ok..you haven't yet..but I'm still waiting ! I miss you so very much..sometimes I think I hear noises coming from your chair and I have to remind myself that you are not here..I love you !!!!!

It's going on 3 months on the 17 that you took your last breath at 11:15 that morning and I couldn't stop you from leaving me no matter How hard I begged you to stay..I was wAtching the monitor and I knew you were fixing to go....I tried so hard to keep you but I knew you were tired..
I miss you so very much..I can never write on here without tears rolling down...my brother. I miss you and Kevin..I love you

No words can describe how much I miss you! I love you ! Life is just not the same ..sometimes I catch myself thinking I need to tell you something and hits me like a freight train that I can't ..Then I think I'll tell Kevin but I can't do that either..so very hard to loose you both... I'm older than you and Kevin..I should have went first...

Long before we met I heard stories of you, the man, the myth, the legend James Jackson. You were my husband's best friend, his brother, his hunting partner, the man that helped raise his children, his children's godfather, the man that raised him, the man that made him the man he was. You were his hero. According to Kevin there was nothing you couldn't do. You wouldn't believe the expectations I had. You always had an answer for everything usually with some sarcasm.
My fondest memory of you, more than anything I loved sitting around a fire listening to yall tell stories, laughing and making new memories

I never met James myself but James and my Brother Bill were best friends so strange Carol James sister and I worked together and are friends but neither one of us knew Carol's brother and my brother were friends but now James and Bill are in heaven still best friends

I just got to see you one time and you was just the sweetest person to me and I couldn't believe how you was related to my son in law.. but I was so glad to meet you and May you rest in peace... And in the loving arms of the Lord... Amen

Laying here tonight wanting to talk to you about the confederate flag and the statues that are being taken down. You never failed to respond to a question about anything. I miss our talks about just stuff. The world is a lot less beautiful and funny with you gone. We all are better people for knowing you. I still smile every time I think about making jerky or running across something silly to pop in the mail to you. And I laugh out loud at how absolutely naughty you were about sharing jerky lol !!!!! I’m grateful for the smiles and the memories

Love and miss you Uncle Bill. 
Love, Kim

Uncle James I love you and will miss you dearly. You were a big part of my life when I was little when PawPaw, MawMaw and I would come and visit everyone at Oma's house. We always had fun! I remember I was scared to go into your Elvis room! And scared of the long hall way!Later in life we recconected when we came down for the summer and you met Ain. You 2 were best friends from the start. Thank you for always being loving and kind❤I will miss you but will always remember you loving your country and God❤Please hug my PawPaw and My Daddy for me❤
Rest in Peace Uncle Bill

It’s been one week ago today that you were welcomed into the almighty arms of your Savior Jesus Christ. The angels were rejoicing I am sure along with other family and friends that arrived before you.

You were 8 years old when I was introduced and accepted into the Jackson Family by your sister Carol. I remember the first Christmas I celebrated with you and how happy and loving you were then and all of your life. I watched you grow into a wonderful young man.

Throughout the years you shared your love and life with all of us who crossed your path. Always with open arms and an open heart to listen, to love others and to share your humor with those around you. Your love of all your nieces and nephews was amazing. You gifted each of us with a little part of you in ways I’m sure you would be amazed.

You were a very special part of my life and a brother to me. I will always remember you and I pray for comfort to your brothers and sisters on their loss. On the wings of God’s eagles as you soar to Heaven’s gates and on this glorious Sunday may you enjoy your time with your Heavenly Father and may you rest in peace. I’ll love you always.

My friend, my family. Love and miss you.

James was a smart and loving family man. His heart was huge. He loved his country and was a proud Texan. He had so much knowledge and he loved to share it. I’ve known him since I was about 12 years old. My brother in law enjoyed meeting James when he visited America for the first time. They talked for hours. I love you James and I’ll miss you. Say hello to my daddy. ♥️

“I’d like the memory of me
to be a happy one.
I’d like to leave an afterglow of smiles
when life is done.

I’d like to leave an echo
whispering softly down the ways,
Of happy times
and bright and sunny days.

I’d like the tears of those who grieve
to dry before the sun;
Of happy memories that I leave
when life is done.”

– Helen Lowrie Marshall

This is very hard for me to do so I really had to think about it for a while. The Jackson family became my Facebook friends through my daughter Casey. She was James’s nurse years ago and she grew so fond of him. Through this friendship I knew one thing for sure and that was that James loved his family and GOD and Texas with a passion. He had outstanding integrity and morals. I know with my heart that he received full attention from Jesus and the family that was waiting to greet him. I don’t weep for James, he is full of perfect health and happiness now! I do weep for the family though. I know he will be missed and it was so soon after Kevin went home. I am so sorry for your loss. Isn’t it strange how you feel like you know someone so well even though you never met in person? Amazing! Psalms 73:26

Rest in peace my friend...I will always remember our conversations, your pride of Texas and your friendship with my brother Larry.... I will miss you Pard....

Oh Uncle James! You took a big part of my heart when you left but boy did you leave a ton of memories! I remember every weekend it would be me, you and Kevie playing games, mainly monopoly and eating pizza. You would pick me up on Sundays and take me to church. Im so thankful that I can say you were the one that got Maeleigh and I both our first Bibles! You and Uncle Kevin got my my first Diamond ring for Christmas because yall said a girls first diamond should come from the special men in her life... and that was yall! My senior year you and Uncle Kevin took me on a guided fishing trip and we caught 75 Crappie! A few moths later you took Christian and I on a Hog Hunt in Freer. Hahaha remember the time you put my on the "deer dolly" and pushed me around to try it out lol. When I was taking classes at San Jac I never had to walk across campus to the next class or to the parking lot, you were always waiting for me on the golf cart to drive me around! When you got sick I remember being there as much as I could. We were road dogs! Every other weekend and holidays we hit the road straight to the lake! I seriously have a lifetime of memories and I could go on all day.. BUT what I'm thankful for the most is your relationship with Maeleigh. She may not remember as she gets older but I will. Ill remember how excited she would get to facetime her uncle james and of course going to the lake.

I love you and miss you beyond words and ill always and forever be your Swamp Monster!

I have so many memories. The time we talked you into doing an Elvis concert for us. You had every Elvis album I could imagine. There was one Summer Kim and I stayed at Mawmaw's house and you and Kevin took us to the San Jacinto monument and Battleship Texas. You taught us the history and significance of the war with Mexico. I think I impressed my seventh grade Texas History teacher with how much I already knew. You were always into history and always teaching all of us.  I love you so much and will miss you forever. I am thankful for the years you were here. I can only imagine what it was like when you got to heaven. Give everyone a big hug from me and tell them I love and miss them. Rest in peace, see you on the other side. I love you!

I met James when he came to buy turkeys from us,..with his brother, several years ago. He became a very dear friend via Facebook and I will miss him terribly.

My sweet & funny friend since July 2010. We shared the love of gardening, football, genealogy and he always checked on me if I was quiet on Facebook. I will miss you very much but I know your homecoming was full of love and the welcoming arms of your parents and your brother Kevin. Rest in sweet peace James. You will be missed. 

My sincere condolences to James family and friends. I worked with James at San Jacinto College. Such a sweet and caring man!!!!❤ Rest in peace my friend.
