Sherwood Jackson
1922 - 2016
Gestures
Sherwood and my cousin Lorraine were very much guiding lights to me as a young teenager. I spent two summers with them on their farm and have forever since regarded them as my first mentors. Fun, family, respect, education. The Regional fairs, weekend sightseeing (always had 'just a quick stop' to see a man a sheep, a whatever.). Sherwood dubbed me 'sobby' Serby as a 14 year old And when I last saw him he reminded me, and told my husband, how I got that name. I really did not want to go back to Arizona. RIP Sherwood, the winner of A race well run, a goal well won. Forever in my heart.
Sherwood was a true gentleman and the definition of a true gentleman. He was kind to everyone, including me when I was 9 years old and stood last with my ewe lamb. He was a very positive influence on many young people who later became good in careers that he mentored them in at a young age. The world will miss Sherwood Jackson.
