October 22, 1946 in Atlanta, GA. He attended S.H. Archer

United States Postal Service. He was preceded in death by
two brothers Benjamin Boykin Jackson and Bradley Taylor

He is survived by four children: Nequita Jackson, Alfred Jackson Sr., Tiffany (Kamardi) Carter, & Prince Alfred Jackson. Also surviving are two sisters: Delloria (Lewis III) Kindle, Letitia Jackson and one brother Calvin Jackson, Sr. In addition to two grandchildren Jamar!

Alfred was affectionately called "Butch" by his wife, family members and friends. He passionately enjoyed singing, dancing, and fishing. He always lovingly referred to his wife as "momma". He was loving and caring and devoted to his family.
God Took Him to His Loving Home
God saw him getting tired, a cure was not to be.
He wrapped him in his loving arms and whispered 'Come with me.'
He suffered much in silence, his spirit did not bend.
He faced his pain with courage, until the very end.
He tried so hard to stay with us but his fight was not In vain,
God took him to His loving home and freed him from the pain.
