JosephJACKSONJoe Jackson, of Accrington, passed away peacefully on February 20, aged 83. Beloved husband of the late Helen, and much-loved father of Ellen, John and Fiona, Joe was a cherished grandfather, great-grandfather, father-in-law, brother-in-law, uncle, and a dear friend to many. He was also a loving brother to the late Isobel and Tommy, and to Amy, John, and Brian.
Known for his warmth, humour, and generosity, Joe touched the lives of everyone who knew him. He spent many years as a well-respected coach driver with Fraser Eagle Coaches, taking tours across the UK and Europe. Those who travelled with him will remember his friendly chatter, his stories from the road, and his passion for sharing new places with others. Joe loved life, family, and friendship, and he had a special way of making everyone feel welcome. Whether at home, on the road, or among friends, he brought laughter, kindness, and a sense of adventure wherever he went
His funeral will be held on Friday, March 13 at 1pm at Accrington Crematorium, Burnley Road, followed by a continuous celebration of life at Canine Club, Accrington, where family and friends are invited to share memories, laughter, and stories in true Joe style. Joe would have loved for everyone to wear whatever they feel comfortable in, but, if possible, please consider wearing the Marie Curie daffodil in his honour.
Family flowers only, please. Donations in his memory can be made to Marie Curie via Hyndburn Funeral Services, Queens Road West.
