Robert Thomas Jackson, age 36, of Macon, Georgia, passed away tragically on June 15, 2026.

The family will greet friends from 5:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. on Friday, June 19, 2026, at Hart’s on Cherry Street. Funeral services will be held at 11:00 a.m. on Saturday, June 20, 2026, in the Chapel of Hart’s on Cherry Street, with the Reverend Paul Meadows officiating. Burial will follow the service at Macon Memorial Park Cemetery.

Born on March 22, 1990, in Macon, Georgia, Robert was the beloved son of Peter Jackson and Rebecca Robertson Jackson. He graduated from Central High School in 2008 and went on to build a life defined by hard work, service, and an unwavering devotion to those he loved.

Above all else, Robert was a devoted husband and father. He cherished every moment spent with his loving wife, Jackie, and their two sons, Noah and Lucas, who were the center of his world. Whether coaching, teaching, encouraging, or sharing outdoor adventures, Robert found his greatest joy in being a husband and dad.

A successful business owner and respected member of the Macon community, Robert was passionate about giving back. He founded and served as president of Float Daze, a community organization dedicated to bringing people together through water safety education and cleanup efforts along the Ocmulgee River. Through his leadership, countless volunteers helped preserve and protect one of Macon's most treasured natural resources.

Robert also spent three years coaching soccer at The Macon Soccer Club, where he inspired young athletes not only to improve their skills, but to play with confidence, character, and sportsmanship. His love for soccer was matched only by his passion for the outdoors. He enjoyed hunting, camping, fishing, baseball, and spending time with family and friends creating memories that will be treasured forever.

Those who knew Robert will remember his infectious smile, quick wit, generous heart, and ability to make everyone feel welcome. He lived life with passion, kindness, and a genuine love for people. His presence could brighten any room, and his willingness to lend a helping hand left a lasting impression on all who knew him.

Robert is survived by his loving wife, Jackie Jackson; his cherished sons, Noah and Lucas Jackson; his parents, Peter and Rebecca Jackson; his brother, Chris Jackson; and many beloved relatives, friends, teammates, fellow volunteers, and community members who will forever treasure his memory.

Though our hearts are broken by this unimaginable loss, we take comfort in knowing that Robert's love lives on through Jackie, Noah, Lucas, and all those whose lives he touched. His legacy of kindness, service, laughter, and love will continue to shine brightly, and he will be forever missed, forever remembered, and forever loved.
