Nana Grandma we love you from Liam and mommy.

Verna Bernadette Jackson was born to the late James Henry Connor and Maude Ursula Connor on December 1, 1946.  She departed this earthly life on Tuesday August 6, 2024.  She had been a faithful Christian and church member for the majority of her life.  For the last 16 years, she has served as a member of the Siloam Christian Church until her health prevented her from participating.  
Verna received her elementary and secondary education from schools on both the Islands of Anguilla and Antigua.  She went on to complete her education in nursing in the UK before meeting her husband Michael, marrying, and moving to the United States.  Once in the states she began working in the hospitals as a Licensed Practical Nurse.  Always ambitious, she went back to school earning her Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) and passing boards to practice as a R.N.  Towards the end of her 30+ year career, she moved into roles as a nurse case manager and nurse educator.  
Verna is known for her love of baking, socializing, and attending outdoor events, especially her children and grandchildren’s sporting events.  Her favorite sports to watch were tennis and track and field.  
Left to cherish her memories are her husband of 52 years, Michael; children Ian, Michael Jr, and Carolyn.  Verna also has six surviving siblings, Julian, Nelson, Odette, Vernon, John, and James, 1 sibling who is deceased (Rhoda), and a combined 10 grandchildren and great grandchildren.

The Salpointe Catholic High School community extends deepest sympathy to the Jackson family. You are in our prayers at this difficult time.
