Barbara A. “Bobbi” Brown-Jackson, 69, received a message from her heavenly Father on Wednesday, Aug.4, 2021, that her assignment here on earth was complete. She was born Sept. 4, 1951, to the late Deacon Percell A. and Deaconess Irene V. Brown.

Bobbi was a jewel and comedian to anyone who knew her. You were guaranteed to get a good laugh and be uplifted while you were in her presence. She loved everyone and did anything for anyone. She will be forever loved, remembered and missed by many.
She leaves to cherish her husband of 27 years, Kevin L. Jackson; two sons, Michael Randall (Lamonica) and Shawn Washington; two grandchildren, A’Zavian Randall, and Amilliyon Randall; two sisters, Joyce Holmes and Yvette Taylor (Charles); brother-in-law, Kelly Taylor and Breon Robinson; mother-in-law, Thelma Jackson; special nephews, Alex Taylor and James Holmes Jr.; two great-nephews, Jalen and Jelani Holmes; and a host of loving family and friends.
