She said she had to make sure every child knew Jesus, and how much He loved them. Called Nana by many and Aunt Jo, by her nieces and nephews she made sure they all knew about Jesus.Shortly before her home going Jo would say over and over, I just want to go home to be with Jesus. We would all tell her the same thing, It not God will yet. When it time He will come and get you. I found something about God will and read it to her. She said, Ok, Ill let Him drive. I never could drive very good anyway. This is what I read to her.God will is a little like taking a Sunday drive with God behind the wheel. God is driving. He might turn where you dont expect a turn or go through a valley that feels too dark. But you dont have to worry about a thing, because youre just the passenger. Whatever happens, God will get you home in the end as long as you let Him drive. That God will.JoNita was preceded in death by her parents, Joseph Coy and Gladys Morrison Jackson, three sisters: Frankie Oneal Jackson Kirby, Bobbie Rae Jackson Kirby and Nancy Elvira Jackson Tarra and one brother Joseph Coy Jackson, Jr. Left to cherish her memory is one sister: Billie Katherine Jackson Alford of Morton, MS, and her nieces and nephews and many, many friends.Serving as pallbearers are Drew Audirsch, Zach Bartlett, Trey McLemore, Dakota Breshears, Gregg Hill, Steven Palowsky, Charlie Baxter and John Nix.
