Michael Orvind Richard Jackson

On the evening of June 5, 2025, Michael Jackson passed away rather suddenly.

Mike was one of the most charismatic people I have ever met and known. That man could talk about anything and everything; and he loved it. He made friends everywhere he went, and I am so grateful that he had his social media to keep in contact with his friends and family.. Especially over the last few years.

He was a very proud man and took pride in his accomplishments. He was very proud to have served as an officer in the US Army. Although, he always said his greatest accomplishment was being a father. He never let his kids forget how proud he was and how much he loved them.

He loved life, he loved sharing his experiences and lessons he learned. He knew a bit of something about everything, a true jack of all trades. My hope is that his humor, authenticity and wisdom that he shared with everyone will be what he will be remembered for.

Mike is survived by his partner, Patricia; his three children, Duncan and partner Erin, Brendan and wife Tori, and Carolyn; granddaughter Emberlyn; great-granddaughter Brynnlee; and sisters, Cathy, Nancy and Barbara.

At this time, there is no date for a memorial or funeral service.
