Johnny Christian Jackson was born on January 5, 1990 to Johnny Spiess and Jeronica Jackson in Seattle, Washington. He graduated from Evergreen High School and continued his education at Western Washington where he studied Criminal Justice.
Johnny loved to joke and pull pranks, he had the ability to make us laugh until we were in tears with the jokes that he would tell (even the not so funny ones would have you laughing). Christmas was his favorite holiday, even as an adult he insisted on setting out cookies and carrots for Santa and his reindeer on Christmas Eve. He loved the outdoors. Fishing and camping were his favorites but football was his passion.
Johnny loved family, he was an amazing son, brother, nephew, cousin and friend. He enjoyed being a father most of all. His children Anaiyah and Cash were his world, he loved them with everything he had and was determined to provide a better life for them. Johnny had a smile brighter than the sun and his eyes spoke even when he had no words.
Johnny was called home to be with the Lord on August 28, 2020. He was preceded in death by his grandparents Johnny Spiess, Jerome and Melbaline Jackson and Uncle Ricardo Vanga, as well as a host of other sorely missed relatives.
Johnny leaves to cherish his memory his parents Johnny Spiess (Heidi) and Jeronica Jackson. His two children Anaiyah Jackson and Johnny Cash Jackson; siblings, Michel Jackson, Michael Burns, Jabarrie Jackson, Kendall Spiess, Kirk Terry, Savannah Spiess, Jenna Spiess, Cassandra Spiess, Dallas Spiess; a host of other close relatives and friends.
Scripture
I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course. I have kept the faith: henceforth there is laid up for me a crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous judge, shall give me at that day: and not to me only, but unto all them also that love his appearing.
2 Timothy 4:7-8
