| In 1997, we were fortunate to have our oldest son, Rodney, follow in his dad's footsteps as he became general manager of the JFC farming operation. Teenager
Josh is learning all aspects of the farming and fruit and vegetable
produce business. |
Over the
years, the Jackson's have had to overcome several obstacles and setbacks.
First, a hail storm in 1992 wiped out their large cantaloupe crop. Then
in the fall of 1999, we were hit with two hurricanes that wiped out
our entire fall crop harvest.
The most
devastating loss, though, was the sudden death of our second son, Adam,
in March of 2001 in a tragic car accident. A graduating senior, Adam
had already been accepted to attend North Carolina State University
and study agricultural business.

Adam's
Memorial Scholarship
In
an effort to honor and memorialize our love for our son, we have created
the Adam Brent Jackson Memorial Scholarship Endowment at North Carolina
State University. To learn more about how
Adam's love for sports resulted in a unique donation to his scholarship
endowment and how you can help us meet our goal, please go to Adam's
Memorial Scholarship.
