Nellawebb Stoker (Stoker) Jackson

Nellawebb Stoker Jackson, age 85, of Auburn, AL, passed away on Thursday April 25, 2024.  Nell, as she would prefer to be called, was born on September 10, 1938, in Chatom, AL.  She is the only daughter among five tall brothers whom she loved dearly but never hesitated to “call out” (or anyone else) when she thought it was necessary.  Although Nell was small in stature, she had a huge spirit.  She was tremendously loyal to those around her.  She loved her family and was very devoted and protective of them all, both immediate and extended.  She had a keen intellect and was gifted in speech.  She was a “fierce fighter” when she believed her cause was right and would go to great lengths to defend those around her.  It was unwise to challenge her.  However, underneath this fighter was a tender woman who could show compassion and mercy.  She was a woman who grew in compassion and mercy because Christ began to change her in her later years.  She was a woman to be admired and imitated because of her spirit and accomplishments and she will be greatly missed by those who knew her well.

Nell was a homemaker, mother, grandmother, and great grandmother.  She also worked in real estate.  She loved flowers, working in her yard and traveling.

Nell was preceded in death by her first husband, Charles Fredrick Jackson, brothers Mack Stoker, Charlie Stoker, and Homer Stoker, her Mother, Aurilla Goldman Stoker and Father, Daniel Webster Stoker.

Nell is survived by her devoted companion, Dr. Vascar Godfrey Harris, children, Dr. Charles Gregory Jackson (Donna), Pamela Ann Jackson, 2 daughters in Virgina, Angela (Harris) Saunders and Kim (Harris) Satterthwaite, Grandchildren, Woodson Daniel Harmon (Tami), Jessica Knox (Chris), Jillian Harmon, Ellie Dillard, Jonathan Jackson (Elizabeth), Joel Jackson, Joshua Jackson, Julie Jackson, Step-Grandchildren, Rebecca Whitehead, Denver Whitehead, David Whitehead, Jamie Whitehead, brothers, Daniel “Vee” Stoker, Richard Morris Stoker (Billie), and 7 great grandchildren and many wonderful nieces and nephews.

Visitation will be Saturday, April 27, 2024, from 10:00 am to 11:00 am at Jeffcoat-Trant Funeral Home Chapel,  1500 Frederick Road, Opelika, AL 36801.  Funeral service will be at 11:00 with Pastor Donald DeLee officiating. Immediately following the funeral will be the graveside service.
