Cherry Valley - Gary Frank
Jackson, 70, loving husband, father, grandfather and favorite uncle, died
Sept 13, 2011 in his home in Cherry Valley, IL. Born to Lynn and Evelyn (Welke)
Jackson on March 17, 1941 in Eau Claire, WI. Gary worked 33 years for
Sundstrand Corporation, retiring on 1/1/2000. He felt blessed to have
enjoyed his retirement years working in his garage on his hobby, small
engine repair. He took great pride in bringing an ailing piece of
equipment back to life. He also loved his old hit ‘n miss engines. He
belonged to two Old Engine Clubs in Freeport, IL and Eau Claire, WI. He
enjoyed showing and running his old engines in club shows. He was a
mechanic at heart. He liked being outdoors, doing yard work, gardening and
walking every day with his dog. He loved spending time with his
grandchildren and family, going to auctions, meeting his friends on the
walking path and watching his Packers. |
