Carl "Stan" Jackson

Stan was born on October 31, 1942, to Carl and Dalpho in Los Angeles, California. After Stan graduated from Amo High School, he proudly served our country in the United States Navy, where he developed great mechanical and engineering skills. After his time in the Navy, he started his career in sheet metal where he worked for several great companies, built lifelong friendships, and worked with some great clients such as Nestle, Leaf, Chrysler, and more. In 1994, he started his own sheet metal company, Newjac, with his partner, Bob. They ran a great business together for many years before Stan retired in 2005.

Stan was an avid fisherman and served as the president of his local bass club for many years. He made great friends in his bass clubs, made new fishing friends when he traveled to Florida for the winter, and won many tournaments with his fishing partners over the years. He also enjoyed deer and pheasant hunting in his younger years. He really enjoyed traveling and went all over the world in both the Navy and as a vacationer including the entire United States, Grand Cayman, St. Thomas, Mexico, Australia and more. One of his favorite trips was halibut fishing in Alaska.
