He had a special bond with his chocolate lab, Jacy. He loved hunting, fishing, spending time with his buddies and most of all he loved to make people laugh. Jackson was always the life of the party. Jackson was spoiled and ornery from day 1, he was the baby brother of two teenagers, the late Jeromy Dan Chaffin & Summer Danielle Chaffin-Pense. His childhood was spent being spoiled by Jeromy and Regena and disciplined by Summer. In high school, Jackson played football for the Dickson Comets and excelled at everything he tried. He had an amazing personality, the gift of gab, the kindest heart, and the greatest sense of humor. He lit up every room he entered with his big ornery smile. You never knew what Jackson had up his sleeve, just ask Summer, Regena, Bailey, Trey, or his son Briton James Cross. Jackson never met a stranger who wasn’t soon his friend. He never called anyone by their actually name, everyone got a random name. Jackson had many, many friends, his best friends were Brad, Forrest, Chris, Justin, and the late Stow Chow. Jackson was the best son, brother, uncle, friend, and most of all a dad to his precious son, Briton James Cross.
