I met Art when he joined the South Haven Area Men’s Chorus. A finer, more gracious man would be hard to find. I enjoyed his humor, his optimism and his company at many lunch get-togethers after singing practice sessions. He will forever serve as a role model for young men. Rest In Peace, Artie!

I meet Mr. Art Jackson at Van Buren United Civic Organization. He always had a smile and kind words for me. He became a second father to me when my father passed. It was a honor to welcome him back when he went on the Honors Flight to Washington D.C. May God give you comfort and peace.

So sorry for your loss. We will miss him at the museum. He was our best tour guide. People who came in loved talking to him. He had so much to share. All of us at the museum send our condolences.

Mr Jackson had known me for a long time. I will remember him for his kind words of wisdom that he always gave through out my life. He was there when I came home from Marine Corp boot camp and he was there when I came home from overseas. He was truly a man that I looked up to. Heaven has gained another Angel. To protect those pearly gates see you soon God speed brother

Arthur and i became very close through our association in SHAMC. I loved him as my brother. I was his Junior by 2 and a half years. We shared stories that only nonagenarian brothers can share. He was also Mr. Positivity. Friendship with him blessed me. I would have possibly been with him in Korea, but instead languished in a sanatorium while the war was raging. I am sure he was a superb soldier. He loved life, a true gentle man. I hope he keeps a chair beside him in the choir. I'll be there shortly.

Thinking of the family during this difficult time. What a "man". He always looked forward to the bake goods I brought to the Covert Civic Center. He will be missed???

I had the privilege and honor of having known both Art and Pat when I worked with Pat at the South Haven rehab dept. They are two of the finest people I have ever known, and I consider myself having been blessed with their genuine hugs, kindness, and beautiful smiles. I also witnessed their grace when they lost family, then how they forged on to be of service to others--always. Family must be extremely proud of both, and my heart-felt condolences to them at this time.

Art Jackson and I had many conversations over the years about his connection to my alma maters Corpus Christi and Hales Fransican High Schools located on Chicago's South side. He was truly a devout Catholic and a dedicated family man. May he rest in peace!!

Fond memories of seeing Art at Mass at St. Basil. He always greeted my family and I with a big smile and a handshake. He was always upbeat and full of life. R.I.P.

Art was a very funny man we had fun talking to each other about everything; he gave me advise. When I first moved to Covert, he & Pat came & welcomed me to the neighborhood. I loved talking to him. May GOD bless the family in your loss.
