To the Jackson and Womack Families:
Please know that no words will ever do justice to the impact Veda has left on her family, friends, community, church, neighborhood and our world.  Her  glowing talents were lovingly shared and left such precious memories.  What a pleasure it was to know Veda.  I hope her mother--my friend and coworker at Carver High School and Eisenhower High School will remain strong and will share in the journey to finding peace after this difficult loss. Yet praying for all.

Sending love and prayers to Veda's family. We first met in 1979 at rehearsals for a film. What a great dancer and a great person. She had a wonderful presence and spark. I loved to watch her perform. Rest in Peace dear Rev. Veda Jackson Womak. 

To the Jackson and Womack family u have my condolences at this difficult time.  I've known Veda for over fifty yrs. Veda was a sweet and kind person to know and love. She's always been the same from day one. May God continue hold u in his arms

To the dear family of Rev. Veda Jean Jackson-Womack;                                                                                                There is so much to say about this wonderful woman. I've been friends with her for 42 years. She has been part of my family, and I was a part of hers. We first met during rehearsals for a movie, became fast friends working together on Broadway, and many projects in the entertainment industry. Through good times and bad times we remained devoted friends. My biggest blessing besides her friendship was her sharing her faith. She and I spent many a time discussing God's blessings and God's word. She shared her love for everyone, especially her daughter Chelsea who gave her so much pride and love. She always said Chelsea married a very intelligent and good man, and loved her son-in-law dearly. She was always beaming with love for her grandchild, and everyday thanked God for all these blessings.  
Veda always would let me know: "God does not give you what you want; he gives you what you need." Even though we want her to still be with us, I feel God needed her to come home.   My deepest sympathy for your loss, I know she will be sorely missed. There is a big hole in my heart knowing she will not be there to speak with. But that will be filled know we will all meet again.                                   
Sincerely, with love,
Mark Ziebell

Thankful for the opportunity to meet Rev. Womack and be in her presence. She had a Beautiful Spirit and was Full of Life, Vigor, Faith, and Zeal. Her Faithfulness in Our Church Ministry & Arts Department was Amazing. You will Truly be missed Mother! Prayers and Thoughts to the Family in your time of Pain. God will Heal You in Completeness. With Love, Thomas Pierce (Church Admin T.F.C.)

In this life  there are many people who will cross our path...with some going unnoticed... until one day.
And so our paths  knowingly crossed ... on the stage of Miller Theater... one summer... in a production of
Scott Joplin's opera Treemonisha.   But long before that our paths crossed... in the same neighborhood.. unknowingly.    And her mother and I crossed paths  as coworkers  at Carver High School... in the neighborhood.
So glad to have become acquainted with Veda, as we toiled on the stage to perform the special work of  Joplin. She was a dancer, while I was a singer.

Moreover, the Womack family members have been my neighbors, classmates, former students, as well as students of my parents, as well as family friends.

Sweet rest is Veda's deserved reward.   May all who loved her be encouraged by the Word in John 3:16, and anticipate a sweet, heavenly reunion someday.  And continually  be thankful for the life, labors,loves and longevity  of Veda Jackson Womack.

May the love of friends and family carry you through your grief.

You all are in my thoughts and prayers. The family of Phyllis and Eugene Smith,Sr.  God bless you and strengthen you is my 
prayer.  Raquel Smith

Dear Jackson family, I was so sorry to hear about Veda. I have such good memories of us dancing together at Bowie Studio, HSPVA and then Pasty  Swayze's. 
She was the carpool comedian and always made my mother laugh. I can see her now dancing on the stairway to Heaven. Treasure your memories, as shall I. 

My sincerest condolences to you and your family little sister....I love you, I'm praying for you, and I'm only a phone call away when needed! Prayers, comfort, peace and blessings to you during this difficult time!
