Julia B. Jackson, of Wilmington, formerly of Hallsboro, NC, passed away Friday, November 28, 2014, at the age of 98, one of seven children born to Sandy and Julia Brown, January 27, 1916, in Marion, SC, all preceded her in death. She married Floyd Jackson of Hallsboro, NC, and they had two daughters. After retirement, they moved to Wilmington in 1978, and in 1986 celebrated their 50th wedding anniversary given by their daughters. Dad passed away four months later. Julia was of Baptist faith and a member of Myrtle Grove Baptist Church. Until her health started to decline, she enjoyed her meetings with the Services for the Blind and her yearly trips to the Outer Banks and Lake Norman. She was a beautiful and very strong lady throughout her long life and cared deeply for her family. She is survived by her daughters, Jeanette Bullard (Richard) of Zachary, LA, and Amy Smith, with whom she made her home; three grandchildren, Don Smith (Pam) of Wilmington, Larry Bullard, and Donna Herbert (Ricky) of LA; three great-grandchildren, Cannon Smith, Bryana Bullard, and Derek Morris; and one great-great-grandchild. Also to be remembered is Daniel A. Parker who spent timeless and numerous hours by her side, loving and caring for her. Special thanks to our second family, the Lower Cape Fear Hospice, and nurses, Kelly Yohe and Kathy Bonvouloir, for the amazing care given to Mom and our family, we will be forever grateful. A funeral service will be held at 11am Monday, December 1, 2014 at Andrews Valley Chapel with Rev. Elbert Bradshaw officiating. Prior to the service, the family will receive friends from 10am until the service hour. Interment will follow in Hillcrest Cemetery, Lake Waccamaw, NC. “My heart is full of pain to see you go, my life will be empty. I know you were tired and ready to be with Dad, I will find comfort in knowing you will have a new life and home in Heaven with love, joy, and peace. “I love you, Mom, and I am blessed for the time we shared together. Memories will live with me forever.” Your Daughter. In lieu of flowers, donations in Julia’s memory may be made to Lower Cape Fear Hospice, 1414 Physicians Drive, Wilmington, NC 28401.
