Dwayne Jackson Obituary

Dwayne "D Jack" Jackson was granted his wings on March 13, 2025, at the tender age of 41. He was the youngest son of Lela Jackson and the late Wayne Jackson. He was a graduate of John F. Kennedy High School. His first job was at Bunny Bread, Louisiana Superdome, West Jefferson Hospital, Canal Place Mall and finally landed at the New Orleans Fire Department for 14 years. He was in the process of taking classes to move up in rank. He also had his CDL license. Shooting pool was his passion and he strived to be one of the best. He traveled diligently to different tournaments as a participant. The thing he loved the most in life was spending quality time with his kids and his family. He was a great father and son. There is nothing he wouldn't do to entertain or meet every need. The bond was unbreakable. Dwayne lived life to the fullest. He was always at work and he was still full of joy and laughter. To know Dwayne is to have shared a laugh, a smile or a meal with him. At times, he was hilarious and his smiles were infectious. Dwayne leaves to cherish his memory his mother Lela Jackson, his partner Marion Augustin, Four children, Gabriel Jackson, Armani Jackson, Daniel Jackson and Skylar Sylve, brother Damian Jackson, aunts, uncles and a host of other relatives and friends. He was preceded in death by his father, Wayne Jackson, grandparents, a host of aunts, uncles and other relatives. Dwayne was loved immensely by all who encountered Him. To know him is to love and accept him for who he was. As we say goodbye, we hold close to Dwayne's precious memories. We are forever grateful for the time we spent together and the laughs we shared. May He Rest In Peace.
