Baker, LA - Mr. Mitchell Wayne Jackson entered into eternal rest on Saturday, April 4, 2026, in Baker, Louisiana. Known as "Mitch," he was one of a kind, outspoken, generous, and full of life. He loved deeply, laughed loudly, and made every room brighter simply by being in it. A devoted Dallas Cowboys fan, a proud cowboy boot wearer, an athlete, a dancer, and a man who fed people because that was how he loved.

Above all else, Mitchell loved his family. They were his greatest joy and his whole heart.

He is survived by his beloved wife, Mrs. Rosalie Jackson; his children; grandchildren; and siblings Brenda Williams, Louvenia Jackson, Curtis Jackson, and Gene Jackson.

Young and Patricia Minor; his brothers, Willie Brown, Joseph Jackson, Hayford Jackson Jr., Lee Jackson, and William T. Jackson; his son, Mitchell; and his daughters, Michelle, Rochelle, and Kayla.

What a reunion it must have been.
