Miss Mindy Ann Jackson

It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of our beloved Mindy Ann Jackson, age 63, of Knoxville, TN.  She died peacefully February 28, 2023, with family at her side.

She was born December 4, 1959, to James A. and Patricia J. Jackson at the Presidio in San Francisco, CA.  Mindy graduated from Gaylesville High School in 1978.  She received her Bachelor of Science degree from the University of Tennessee-Knoxville and her Associate’s degree from Pellissippi State.
