Obituary

Harold Jackson, 84, resident of Lima, OH and Palmetto, FL passed away on March 31, 2023 surrounded by his wife and children.  

Born in Marion, OH on December 26, 1938 to Andrew and Gertrude (Pierson) Jackson, he was one of ten children including: Fran Kelly (Orange County, CA), Kay Micheli (Upper Sandusky, OH), Mary Fulton (Cardington, OH), Richard Jackson (Columbus, OH), Juanita Scott (Cincinnati, OH), and the deceased Jerome Jackson, David Jackson, Theresa Goedde, and Gloria Shaw.     

He was married to Carole (Lee) Jackson for 65 years and together they raised four children including: Gail Hefner (Columbus, OH), Thomas Jackson (Cincinnati, OH), and the deceased Michael Jackson and Janet Goedde; he is (additionally) survived by 3 grandchildren and 3 great-grandchildren. 

Harold had a passion for food which started as an adolescent working at his family’s meat market, Jackson’s Market. He continued as a cook in the US Army at Fort Knox, then as a butcher and manager at Pangle’s Master Market, and later his own family-run catering and meat business.  He was known by many as “The Turkey Man” for his unique preparation of turkey rolls which he sold on holidays and special occasions.   

Harold also worked for Ford Motor Company for 28 years until his retirement. His goal at that point was to be of service to others every day, which he did, leading him to become a much-loved friend and handyman within his community.  

 The family will receive friends from 2 – 4 p.m. and 6 – 8 p.m. on Monday, April 10, 2023 at Chamberlain-Huckeriede Funeral Home, Lima, Ohio.  The funeral service will begin at 11 a.m. on Tuesday, April 11, 2023 at the funeral home.  Father Mike Sergi will officiate.  Burial will follow at Gethsemani Cemetery, Lima.
