Michael Torin Jackson Obituary (1974 - 2024)

Well, hello there folks! Surprised to hear from me? This is Michael Torin Jackson, but you may know me better as M.J. I've always been known for my smart and adventurous spirit, so it might shock you to hear that my latest adventure began on September 12, 2024. Born on June 30, 1974, in Fort Smith, AR, I’ve enjoyed a life filled with laughter, love, and exhilarating experiences. While I spent my earlier years in places like Dallas, Denver, and Baton Rouge, my heart found its home in Conway, Arkansas, where I've spent the last 12 years. Now, I know you're all used to seeing me as an accompolished financial advisor, but believe me, I've enjoyed just as much mischief outside of the office. From camping at Steel Creek to scaling the highest mountains and deepest canyons, I was always ready for a new challenge. Oh, and let’s not forget about my beloved Jeep, Toby and Juniper, my loyal dogs, and Bruce, my adopted cat. My life was truly larger than life, thanks to these companions, my friends and loved ones. Speaking of loved ones, I leave behind some pretty incredible people. There’s my obsessive mother, Nancy Jackson, and my adventurous father, Leo Jacksonand his best friend, Linda, my brother, Steve Jackson, my Uncle Bo, my kindred spirit and of course, my beautiful girlfriend, Alexandra Sweigart, who filled my life with joy and love. Now, I’ve also met up with some familiar faces on this side –my grandparents Van and Claudine Worsham, who called me "Blueberry", Leo Sr and Pearl Jackson, my Uncle John, who called me "Knight Rider", and many other relatives and friends. We’re having quite the reunion up here! As MJ, I invite you all to relive our memories together on my memorial page. Feel free to share your favorite stories, photos, or that time I accidentally drove my Jeep into Steel Creek (no hard feelings, I promise). Let's celebrate a life lived with love, laughter, and a bit of mischief. After all, isn’t that what made it all fun?
