Harold “Happy” Lloyd Jackson

Harold “Happy” Lloyd Jackson, 63, of Queen Creek, Arizona, passed away peacefully in his sleep on October 27, 2025, while residing at a nursing home in Mesa.

Born in Merced, California, Harold lived a life defined by resilience, creativity, and love.

Affectionately known as “Happy” since he was a baby, Harold carried that spirit throughout his life—always striving to bring joy to those around him. Born deaf, he never let that slow him down. He built a career as a technician at T.R.W., where he repaired the machines that produced safety restraints like airbags—work that reflected his quiet dedication to protecting others.

Outside of work, Harold was a passionate crafter. He sewed, crocheted, and recently found joy in diamond art. He also loved the outdoors, especially fishing, where he found peace and connection.

Harold is survived by his mother, Myrtsie Jackson; his son, Harold Benjamin Jackson (Ben); and four grandchildren whom he adored: Robert (19), Haylie (17), Kyllian (15), and Dazdan (13). He is also remembered by his former spouse, Rebecca Jackson, with whom he shared many years and memories.

A viewing will be held on Friday, October 31, 2025, from 9:00 to 10:00 a.m., followed by funeral services from 10:00 to 11:00 a.m. at The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, 1007 South 72nd Street, Mesa, Arizona 85208.

In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to help offset funeral costs
