of Benton, AR
November 28, 1945 - June 11, 2025
Sheila Jane Jackson, 79, of Benton, Arkansas, peacefully passed away on Wednesday, June 11, 2025, at 9:35 AM, joining her beloved husband in Heaven. Born on November 28, 1945, in Benton to Roy Dale Martin and Myrtice Loretta Harvey Martin, Sheila lived a full and loving life, always putting others before herself.
She married the love of her life, Warren Jackson, on June 19, 1964. Together, they raised two children - a daughter in 1965 and a son in 1969 - building a home filled with kindness, strength, and devotion.
Sheila dedicated nearly two decades of her professional life to the Arkansas State Hospital. She also worked in childcare, nurturing many young lives, and later at Arkansas Face Veneer. No matter where she was, Sheila was known for her warmth, generosity, and unwavering willingness to help anyone in need. To know her was to know true kindness.
She was preceded in death by her parents, Roy and Myrtice Martin, and her husband, Warren Jackson.
Sheila leaves behind a loving family who will forever cherish her memory: her daughter Conni Neal and husband Sam Neal Jr.; her son Shannon Jackson; her brother Freddy Martin; her sister Shirlene Levart; her grandchildren Wade Neal and Kaylee Jackson; and her great-granddaughter Savvy Neal.
A memorial service to honor Sheila's life will be announced at a later date.
Arrangements are by Roller-Alcoa Funeral Home of Benton.
She will be dearly missed by all who had the privilege of knowing and loving her.
