Angie Jackson

Angie passed away at the age of 49, far too soon, leaving behind a love that will never fade and a space that can never be filled.

She was a woman of simple joys and deep comforts. Angie loved making sourdough bread — the slow patience of it, the warmth of it, and the way it filled the house with a feeling of home. She had a taste for life’s little favorites — especially anything pickled: cucumbers, garlic, beets, eggs, even corn. She also loved Skor bars, Dove dark chocolate hearts, sweet-n-hot beef jerky, Slim Jims, pecans, spiced cupcakes with cream cheese icing, and lemon bars — the small treats that made ordinary days feel special.

Her favorite meals were the kind that brought everyone to the table — chicken and dumplings, Marzetti, French onion soup, guacamole, Carmel’s beef and bean burlada, and a Plaza Azteca Mocha Jete. But crab dinner held a special place in her heart. A home-cooked crab dinner with lots of butter wasn’t just a meal to Angie — it was an event. It meant sitting down, slowing time, cracking shells, laughing, and savoring every bite. It was something she truly looked forward to and thoroughly enjoyed.

Angie loved being outdoors. She enjoyed going into the woods, especially trips to The Camp in Kentucky — a place that was hers both as a child and as an adult. It was where she gathered with family, shared fishing trips, adventures, and campfires, and made memories that lasted a lifetime. She was always prepared, ready to take on anything and overcome it, with a steady strength that matched the outdoors she loved.

She also loved slipping away to her “secret beach,” walking the shoreline in search of sea glass, each piece a small treasure shaped by time and water. Trips to Michigan’s Upper Peninsula brought her another kind of wonder — searching for and finding the glowing Yooper Lights hidden among the rocks, lighting up with quiet magic in the dark.

Music meant something to her. Songs like “Faithfully,” “Honey (Won’t You Open That Door),” and “Fishing in the Dark” could instantly transport her. She loved open-net goals and the thrill of simple victories. She loved the quiet peace of fishing and the grounding comfort of wood fire smoke in the air — the kind that clings to a hoodie after a long evening outside.

She brought creativity and life every where she went.

Angie was not defined by grand gestures, but by everyday beauty — the comfort of shared snacks, the warmth of a kitchen, the crackle of a fire, and the sound of a favorite song playing in the background. She found happiness in small things, and in doing so, she made ordinary days feel special.

She is deeply loved and profoundly missed. Her laughter, her tastes, her routines, and her presence will echo in the quiet moments — in the baking of bread, along a quiet shoreline, beneath northern skies, in the glow of a fire, and in the first notes of a familiar song.

Though her time here was too short, her love remains immeasurable.

Forever in our hearts.
