"Here's what's true...."  William French " Bill " Jackson, Born April 27th, 1948 in Lexington, KY to Claude Jackson and Margaret Brammer, passed away Thursday, January 8th, 2026, after an unexpected illness. He was preceded in death by his Wife of 36 years Donna Joyce Jackson (Gulley), His Father Claude Jackson, and His Mother Margaret Brammer Thomas. He is survived by two step-children - Alexander C. Przygoda (Lynn) of Lexington, Kentucky, Gregory Colin Przygoda (Savanah) of Orcas Island, Washington; and five grandchildren - Aryana Przygoda, Lucas White, River Przygoda, Tate White, and Jack Przygoda.

Bill was always the salesman - starting an antique business in 1966 that evolved into one of the preeminent antiquities authentication companies in the United States with his stepson Alex. He brushed shoulders with many key moments and figures in history, worked for a Vice President, knew many celebrities personally growing up while going to John Marshall High School in Los Angeles. His kind heart will be remembered by all that knew that side of him, and he will be missed.
