Jim Jackson's Memorial Fund

Donation protected
I started this go fund me page for our dear friends permanent memorial space expenses and to preserve Jim Jackson's Artistic legacy.  We have raised over $4000  so far from the Will's Pub Memorial Event, but haven't deposited it in here because they would take a percentage. I will keep updating the total as we are keeping excellent records and receipts.

This collection will be for the actual memorial we want to build Jim. Including an some form of cemetary plot, gravestone, artistic monuments & memorial space for art where we will scatter some of Jim's ashes. Possibly at Greenwood Cemetery in Downtown Orlando (We are still discussing this and getting complete estimates) for us to visit  and pay our respects toJim in the future. (Details are still being worked out and we welcome your creative suggestions).

We can not thank the community enough for supporting our efforts to send Jim off the best we can and keep his memory and legacy alive.

The funeral services were Friday January 12th at "A Community Funeral Home" - 910 W. Michigan St., Orlando, FL 32805

If you missed it, there is a video on his website I made with the help of Dave Segal at JimJacksonsArt.com

Friday Jan 12th - Afterwords there was a memorial show at Will's Pub - 1042 N Mills Ave, Orlando, Florida 32803 from 8:30pm - 2am. It was packed and definitely a legendary event. 

If you missed that, rest assured there are many more  awesome Jim Jackson themed events to come.

As I said we raised over $4000 already to apply towards the forming of an entity managed by a board of trusties to ensure what we are doing what is in the family and Jim's best interst. Also the making of all the artistic merchandise we will be selling on the website. We are aspiring to create not just the money for the memorial space, but also to create long term income for Jim's disabled mother and retired father.

With the communities help we already met our goal to raised over $10,000 on Jim's Parents "Momma B's & Gill Jackson's" Go Fund Me account for the funeral services and to get her a replacement vehicle. Her's was not only damaged by Jim in this unfortinite accident, but she can't imagine driving in it after losing her son. She is still a little short of what she needs for the vehicle, but we will make that up with the sale of prints and merchandise on the website and other events.

Feel free to donate here if you wish to help and want nothing in return, but soon you will be able to buy one of the amazing art items that will be coming available on JimJacksonsArt.com.

We think Jim would like you to get something wonderful for your support.

Thank you all again for all the Love and Support you have shown and I am confident we will keep Jim alive in our hearts forever.
