Mark was very successful here on Earth. As a youngster, he achieved the rank of Eagle Scout and participated in multiple sports. Mark played football at the college level until he left to serve a mission for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Barcelona, Spain. Upon honorably returning from his mission, Mark used ingrained law techniques to successfully convince his high school sweetheart, Jennifer Bond, to marry him on July 5, 2002 in the Albuquerque Temple. The newlyweds graduated from Adams State College in 2004 before Mark entered Thomas M. Cooley Law School in Lansing, Michigan. While in Michigan, Mark and Jennifer welcomed to the world their first daughter, Jaelyn. After graduating law school, Mark accepted his first job at Vannah and Vannah Law Firm in Las Vegas, where he enjoyed living with his family for the following 10 years. During that HOT time in Vegas, Mark and Jennifer "hit it big" by also welcoming their only son Cole and sweet younger daughters, Madelyn and Olivia, into the world. Mark loved being a father and he took every opportunity to teach, tease, and cheer on his kids. Luckily, in August of 2017, Mark was able to move his family back to the "blue shadows…and rose-tinted clouds in the west" of his San Luis Valley Home where he started Jackson Law. Not shying away from extra work, he also joined the Richard Harris Law Firm out of Las Vegas starting in January of 2019.
Mark loved to travel and he wasn't afraid to make friends. He knew some amazing people. He is survived by his wife of twenty years, Jennifer; children Jaelyn (16), Cole Mark(13), Madelyn (11), and Olivia(9); parents Dr. Vaughn D. Jackson, MD and Sue A. Buddington Jackson; siblings, KariAnn Jackson and Travis R. Christiansen, Esq, Dr. Vaughn D Jackson Jr, MD and Nicole Westwood, Brett Turner Jackson and Sara Dustin; Grandmother, Karen R.

Bart Bond and Krista Miller; sister-in-law Danette Bond and the late Perry Sowards; 30 nieces and nephews, and many aunts, uncles and cousins. He is preceded in death by his younger brother Trey B. Jackson, brother-in-law Perry Sowards, Grandfathers, Alfred R. Jackson, Roger C. Buddington, and L.R. Wainwright, his grandmother, Ann T. Wainwright, and his Great-Grandmother, Grace E. Nielsen.
