Taylors SC

Mr. Larry Wilbur Jackson, son of the late Charles Junior and Netta Pauline S. Jackson, was born on October 10, 1959 in Greenville County, and departed his earthly life on July 6, 2021.

He was educated in the Greenville Co. School System and graduated from Riverside High School class of 1978.  After graduation he enrolled in the United States Army, where he served for four years in Active Duty and four years in the National Guard Reserve.  Later, he was united in marriage to Irma Neely in 1987 and to this union they were blessed to have four beautiful children, Joshua, Jarred, Jessica and Jasmine.

He was employed at South Carolina Disability and Special Needs Facility for several years until his health declined.

Larry joined Jubilee Baptist Church at an early age.  This is where he began to exercise his gift in music.  He had a lovely baritone voice and at times could sing tenor as well.  He sang on the youth choir, young adult choir and the Chancel choir under the Direction of Mrs. Edith Ferguson.  He sang at church events and funerals as well.  Just to name a few of his favorites, "Peace, Be Still!", "In Times Like These" and Lord Help Me To Hold Out."  He enjoyed history and could recall past events and dates so vividly.  He began to have a passion for Corvettes at the age of eight years old.  Several months ago he was blessed to get his dream car; a red Corvette!

Reflections of wonderful thoughts and loving memories will forever be cherished by his four children; Joshua O. Jackson and Jared P. Jackson both of Simpsonville, SC and Jessica L. Jackson and Jasmine J. Jackson both of Atlanta, GA; brother Charles A. Jackson of the home; sister Sherry J. (Jim) Woodle of Taylors, SC; one granddaughter Emoree Jackson; one grandson Joshua O. Jackson, Jr., both of Simpsonville, SC; aunts Bobbie Burnside and Annie Mae Jackson; uncle Dr. Capers Sullivan; sister-in-law Valerie Neely; and a host of other family and friends.
