It is with great sadness and faithful hearts that we announce the passing of Lynne Ford Jackson,
74, on Wednesday, October 11, 2023. Born March 15, 1949, in Stone Mountain, Georgia, Mrs.
Jackson was the daughter of the late John C. Ford and Mari Jo Ford, whom preceded her in
death. Lynne will be lovingly remembered by her husband of 40 years, James P. Jackson, Sr,
siblings Jim Ford and Jane Mentzer (Bob), nephews John Ford, John Mentzer (Christie), and
James Lee Ford, nieces Susan Nichols (Adam) and Emily Ford, her stepsons Paul Jackson (Lynn),
and Todd Jackson, granddaughters Caroline Jackson, Camille Silva, Mary Catherine Fagetti, and
several great grandchildren, great nieces and great nephews.
Of all her many accomplishments, the ones she cherished the most were her marriage to Jim
(she was his “Cutie Sue”), her dogs, her family and friends, and her ability to bring people
together. Her love, hospitality, refined taste, and southern charm will always be remembered.
A graveside funeral service will be held at Stone Mountain Cemetery on October 19, 2023.
Visitation and service will be graveside beginning at 10:30 am with the Service at 11:00 am.

Lynne was a member of my Alpha Delta Pi pledge class at the University of Georgia in 1968. She was a great friend, a loyal sorority member, and always fun to be around. She had a great personality and was liked by everyone. I had the privilege of being with her at numerous reunions and get-togethers for years after we graduated. She will be greatly missed.
Lynne was a longtime friend and sorority sister since college days at UGA. She was always up for anything and such fun to be around. Rest in peace, Lynne. You will be missed greatly by all who love you.
