Jackie Bryan Vernon, 57, of Watauga, Texas, passed away on July 6, 2025. Born on July 18, 1967, in Fort Worth, Texas, Jackie spent his life rooted in the community he loved.
A proud alumnus of Richland High School, Jackie went on to build a distinguished career as an aerospace engineer. He dedicated over three decades-33 and a half years-to Radius Aerospace, where his commitment and expertise left a lasting impact.
On March 17, 1989, Jackie married Cindy in Haltom City. Together they raised four children: Emily, Bryan, Jordan and Jacob. He also deeply cherished his role as a grandfather.
Jackie was preceded in death by his father, David Vernon; his mother, Norma Henry; and his brothers Ronnie O'Donnell and Kevin Hale.
Those left behind to cherish his memory are his loving wife of 36 years, Cindy Vernon; children, Emily Vernon, Bryan Vernon and his wife T-ania Vernon, Jordan Vernon and his wife Krystal Vernon, and Jacob Vernon; grandchildren, Grayson Vernon and Parker Vernon.
His legacy lives on through the family he loved deeply and the work he devoted himself to with integrity and passion. May his memory bring comfort to those who knew him.
