We are very Sad to hear about John was always a Hard Worker and a Good Friend. Praying for Comfort!!!!

I am so sorry to hear about Johns’ passing. My sincere condolences to the family. I have fond memories of John as my basketball coach at Fairview elementary. In those days, the girls played half court. He was a wonderful coach. My family also has fond memories of him at the Exxon station. He will be greatly missed. 

Ray and family,
All your lives where you saw one you usually saw the other. Our prayers go out to the entire family. May the good Lord wipe your tears away and give you the strength to go on until you meet again.
Forever friend
Mike and Bonnie!

My Heartfelt Sympathy for the loss of John.  
As a decades long customer who relied on John, Ray and their  expertise to maintain my 1987, 4-runner: John, the person, will be always in my memory for his pleasant, and friendly manner and always reliable skills.  Our prayers and thoughts are with you all.

It was sad to hear of John’s passing. John was a great guy who was always willing to help any way he could and share his smile with everyone. 

I’ll always remember our high school freshman race in the 100 yard dash. We ran barefoot on the old Karns cinder track! John edged me out by a nose but then we found out the seniors timing the sprint were laughing cause they didn’t even record the time so we had to run again!!

We will all miss John. Condolences to all the family.

What a fine Man,  John Jackson was...He was a sincere, generous business owner to the community.  John was just a good friend.  He will be so missed...I know life continues but for one moment I want to Thank God for his friendship, and send a moment of prayer to his family.  John Jackson you will be Greatly Missed.

My favorite memories of "my big brother", John:
John driving Yvonne and me up and around on the dirt roads that were to become Pellessippi Parkway in his ole car.  And watching him and Ray playing alumni football games at Karns.
 My family will always remember the loving kindness that he and Ray showed as they looked after my mother in her later years.   I shall miss him.

John and Ray have always been my friends and mechanics. I took my car in one day to get the oil changed and when I went back to pick it up John told me what all they had done to the car and said oh yeah, we changed the air conditioning belt and I said well that's good the air conditioner doesn't work and John said well you got a new belt and he actually charged me for it! R.I.P. John. We will miss you.
