Kenneth Alexander Jackson Jr. was born on Mother's Day May 8, 1960 in Altus, Oklahoma to Sarah and Kenneth A. Jackson, Sr. Although given the name Kenneth at birth, he quickly became known as "Guy" a name that many people referred to him as. Kenneth graduated from Falcon High School in Falcon, Colorado and went on to complete his associates' degree at Rangely College in Colorado, which was also known as Outback. Kenneth relocated to Paterson, NJ in 1982 where he worked at ADP. He later joined New Jersey Transit as a bus operator. Kenneth was employed at NJ Transit and retired after twenty-two years of service. He was also recognized and given several "Safe Driver" Awards. To know "Guy" was to love him. Upon meeting him he made an impression and he quickly became a friend. There was nothing he wouldn't do for anyone. He enjoyed spending time with his family, cooking and caring for his children, taking trips to South Carolina, golfing, riding motorcycles and taking care of his cars. He was known as Kenny, Big Poppa, Guy, Uncle Guy or Unc and we will continue to cherish all of the wonderful memories that we shared with him. Kenneth was predeceased by his father, Kenneth A. Jackson Sr., paternal grandparents, Arthur and Viola Jackson and maternal grandparents, Eldridge and Julia Bracey. He leaves to celebrate his life: his three children, daughter, Kayla Jackson, son, Keon Jackson and daughter, Kiara Jackson; his mother, Sarah Jackson; brother, Paul (Vivan) Jackson; three sisters, Gina Jackson, Crystal Jackson and Tamara Jackson; three nephews, Michael Jackson, Eric Jackson and Myles Jackson; one niece, Latisha Gaither; grand-niece, Zara Jackson; an "adopted" sister, Ivelisse Tyson; nephew, Sean Tyson; the mothers of his children, Andrea Jackson and Yuberky Urena; aunt Binah (James) Campbell; uncle, Issac (Mary Ruth) Bracey; and a host of cousins, friends, neighbors, other relatives, co-workers and buddies.
