Matelee Jackson

It is with deep sorrow and much love that we mourn the passing of Matelee Jackson, born on March 24, 1942, in Orangeburg, SC, who left us on April 11, 2026. As the poet Maya Angelou once said, "People will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel." Indeed, Matelee was a person who made others feel cherished and valued, leaving an indelible mark on the hearts of those fortunate to know her.

A Memorial Service will be held Monday April 20, 2026, at 11:00am at Baker- Isaac Funeral Service, 985 Stratford Avenue Bridgeport, Connecticut, 06607. Following the service, an entombment will take place at Mountain Grove Cemetery, 2675 North Avenue, Bridgeport, Connecticut, 06604.

Matelee Jackson was not just an individual, but an experience, a memory, a story that will continue to be told. We encourage those who knew and loved Matelee to share their memories and upload photos to her memorial page, as a tribute to a life beautifully lived.
