Ionia Sentinel - 28 March 1925
The quiet simplicity of his life marked the funeral services for Andrew Jackson, 
which were held Friday afternoon at 1:30 in the Presbyterian church at Ionia.  
Above his mortal remains lying surrounded by flowers in the sanctuary of the 
church, of which he had been a faithful member for 52 years and an elder for 35 
years, the thoughtful, touching tribute to his memory of a friend and former 
pastor, was paid by Dr. W. K. Spencer, whose associations with this church 
officer had been so close and productive of respect and love accorded by good 
men to one another.  Dr. Spencer read Scripture and offered prayer, which 
conveyed in unostentatious fashion the final tribute to an honorable, 
charitable, Christian life.

By the casket stood a flag in honor of Mr. Jackson's membership in William H. 
Borden Post, G. A. R., and his civil war service and six members of the post 
attended the services.  There were present a number from away among them were 
several business associates of Roscoe R. Jackson from Detroit.  Andrew Jackson 
was at the time of his death 78 years of age and for a number of years had lived 
away from Ionia spending much of his time in California and in Maine.
