Charles Boyd Jackson was born on June 27, 1942 of Birmingham, Alabama, and on August 1, 2018 he got to be reunited in Heaven with his beloved sweetheart, Joan Jackson. Boyd truly lived the most generous life. He spent the majority of his time helping improve the lives of others from family, to close friends, and even strangers. He always saw potential in people. His five grandchildren were his true pride and joy. Boyd is survived by his son, Joey Jackson (Margaret Ellen); daughter, Joy Giattina (John); brothers, Maxey Jackson (Betty) and Ronnie Jackson; and sisters, Elaine Coates (Bobby) and Susan Glover (Jay). He was a proud Papa to five grandchildren, Brittany Jackson, Anna Marie Giattina Perrin (Jesse), Boyd Jackson, Victoria Giattina, and Elizabeth Giattina, and two great-grandchildren Brooks and Charleigh Perrin. They cannot wait to see him again. The Celebration of life will take place Wednesday, August 8th at Church of the Highlands Chapel, Grantsmill Campus beginning at 2:00 pm.
