Carolyn Jackson, affectionately known as “Cooki & G-Mama” was born August 19, 1957 in Rockwall, Texas to “Big Daddy” Emerson Sr. and Willie Strange.
Carolyn transitioned March 29, 2021. She was proceeded in death by her late husband, Jay Jackson; grandparents, grandson, Raekwon; and niece, Chelsea. Carolyn leaves precious memories with her sons, Michael Sr. and Patrick Ward; grandson, Michael Jr.; granddaughters, Amaya and Sabrina; four brothers, Bobby, Emerson, Fredrick, and Michael; four sisters, Jean, Brenda, Patricia, and Phyllis.
Carolyn loved her friends, extended church family and accepted everyone right where they were. She modeled humility and kindness; she wore love like a beautiful garment. Carolyn encountered Jesus Christ at the innocent age of 17 and was filled with the Baptism of the Holy Spirit. Carolyn’s self-less character shared this experience with many. She left an in-delible impression that was noticed; but untold. My sissy is gone too soon and will be missed; but not forgotten. Together, “We will tell it!” as we celebrate her life & legacy.
