Elliott T. Jackson

Donation protected
Elliott passed away unexpectedly on Wednesday, Feb 21, 2024 in Overland Park, Kansas. Autopsy results are still inconclusive. Originally, it was reported as a possible heart attack; however, that has not been determined at this time. His daughter was with him when it happened and was very brave and did everything she could by calling 911 and starting CPR until professionals could arrive.

Elliott had many great qualities, and one of them was being a loving and dedicated father to his one child, Sydnee Jackson. He was very proud of her and she took after him in many ways. She is a senior in high school and will graduate in May. Sydnee plans to attend college, has applied to many schools, and is waiting to hear back from some such as Georgetown, Northwestern, University of Chicago, and Howard before deciding if she will attend a college further away or stay closer to home. She has already been accepted into KU, Mizzou, and University of Arkansas. Her dad was a huge Mizzou fan and he was very excited about the possibility of her becoming a Tiger. Even her Jayhawk, Ku alumni Mother will be supportive if she decides to become a tiger. Currently, Sydnee thinks she would like to attend Law School after receiving her undergraduate degree.

This Go Fund Me was set up after family learned Elliott's coworkers may be interested in donating to a cause on behalf of Elliott and he would love nothing more than to make his daughter's life a bit easier, so we all have no expectations and are just humbled and grateful others have come to know and love Elliott as we have.
