Robert Jackson Jr.

Robert Jackson Jr., 67, Sandusky, passed away Wednesday, February 15, 2023, in the Providence Care Center.

He was born June 30, 1955 in Boston, GA, to Robert Jackson Sr. and Evelyn (Major) Jackson.

Robert graduated from Perkins High School in 1975, receiving his HVAC certificate from Ehove Vocational School, and then his Associates of Arts in Business in 1997. He spent time in the U.S. Marines following high school and made his way back to Ohio, where he worked at Universal Clay and retired from Rhetech.
