William Jerome Jackson was called home on December, 18, 2011 at the age of 36. He left us on the only way he would of wanted, doing what he loved. He was given to us on August, 31, 1975 beloved son to Katherine Jackson and was called back home too soon. He was a Master of the Construction Industry as well as a true blessing to the people closest to him, as will be greatly missed by everyone that was fortunate enough to have had him in their lives . He graduated El Camino High School, and continued his education through college and his trade craft.

His love of creating something with his hands was instilled by his loving Grandpa Vince who he adored. He is survived by his loving mother Katherine Jackson; the love of his life and fiancée, Cherise Esser; his beloved daughter and heart, Autumn Jackson, and Mailani Ann, his great-grandmother, his uncles Eric, David, Bill, and John; aunts Donna, Teddy and Marie; cousins Tony, Wendy, Morgan, Billy, Vincent, Alycia and Joanna . Also, his love for his club and for brothers was secondary only to his family.

William "Billy" "Tree" Jackson never took a second of life for granted, and lived life to the fullest. He was an avid sports enthusiast, loved to cook (and was darn good at it), he lived to ride and rode to live; a true rider all the way to his soul. Also, he was also a true craftsman in every sense of the word and loved what he did to create and build . Above all, he was a family man and his family is what he lived for; his mother Katherine, his daughters Autumn and Mailani, and his love, Cherise.

In lieu of flowers, a memorial fund has been set up for the family. Please forward any contributions to: Chase Bank, The Katherine Jackson memorial fund account #400576224. Any donation is appreciated.

Billy "Tree"Jackson was the ultimate man. To my love this is for you :
"Every woman deserves a man who calls her baby, kiss her because he means it, hold her tight like he never wants to let her go and won't cheat or lie. He should wipe her tears when she cries, be willing to rub hip pain for hours. He would never make her jealous of other women, though they should be jealous of her, he would always let her know how much he truly loved her and was never anything but truthful with his feelings, good or bad. These are all the things I wanted to be for you forever, all the things I would have been. I promise you Baby, I WILL love you FOREVER......."

To my Loving and Adoring Mom, I Love You:
You have made me the man that I have become and for this I was always grateful. If you taught me anything it was that:

Boys play house, Men build homes. Boys shack up, Men get married. Boys make babies, Men raise children. A boy won't raise his own children, a man will raise his and someone else's. Boys invent excuses for failure, men produce strategies for success. Boys look for someone to take care of them, men look for some one to take care of. Boys seek popularity, men earn respect by knowing how to give it. Boys quit and walk away when things get hard, men will promise to love you through it all. I Love You Mom and thank for teaching how to be that kind of man. I will love you ALWAYS.
Your Son.

To everyone else:
Live life to the fullest, never waste a moment in life, tell the ones you love, you love them every chance you get and for all else, ride or die cause that what I would want

With heavy hearts we say God speed and we will always remember and NEVER forget you William "Billy" "Tree"Jerome Jackson.

Love always your family...... now get back to work......or go ride. WJJ
