I have been crying today reading this website. Tears of remembrance and tears of joy having known Davis. Something I want people to know about Davis - he was a kind person. He was a good artist in Mr. Ciganko’s art class. Davis encouraged me as a “fledgling artist.” He used to say, “Ed you are really good at this.” He was always encouraging me. It was because of his validation that I made art my minor at Bowling Green State University. I am a twin too and Davis always alluded to it. Davis was my friend and had a way of making people feel special.
I never got over Davis’ death. But he always has been in my heart.
My mom, Phyllis Jackson, loved the Jones family dearly.
Forever Remembering,
R. Ed Jackson
Dear Jones Family,
