Eugene Lefond Jackson, 87, passed away peacefully with his loving family by his side on Sunday October 12, 2025 at home in Murrells Inlet. He was born on May 14, 1938 in Marion to the late David Grady Jackson & Clara Elizabeth James Jackson.
Along with his parents, Eugene is reunited in passing with his daughter, Debra Diane Blevins; and brothers, David Jackson, Ansel Jackson & Ray Jackson.
Eugene was a hardworking man with a zest for life and a heart of gold. He was a skilled dental technician who took pride in making people smile.
