Savannah Dammarris Jackson

Savannah was born January 23, 1983 to Dana Connetta Jackson and Thomas Ramon Nolan in Des Moines, Iowa. She had been a resident of Des Moines, Iowa all her life. She was educated in the Des Moines Public School System, and later continued her education at DMACC. She worked at the Abbey Nursing Home and later continued her nursing career at Genesis Senior Living as a Certified Nursing Assistant. Even though Savannah worked as a CNA, she always talked about becoming a designer since she was so creative.

Savannah was very independent, a deep thinker, and she had the biggest smile you’d ever see. She was very fun-loving and caring. Savannah was a devoted, hard working mother and she loved spending time with her children and she loved her brother. She enjoyed cooking and cleaning, listening to her music, and reading. She was very unique in many different ways. Savannah was very bubbly and creative; she could put together an outfit or decorate a house in no time with her creative mind and ways. She loved listening to and helping others out, although she had her hello kitty ways about herself. Savannah loved her daughters with all her heart and she worked hard to make sure her children had whatever they needed.

I loved my daughter Savannah to the fullest with all my heart and mind and she is going to be deeply missed. She was my daughter, my sister, and my friend.

Savannah was found unresponsive on November 22, 2016 at the age of 33. Savannah Dammarris Jackson peacefully answered the Masters call to rest.

Savannah leaves behind to cherish her memories 3 daughters, Tiyanna Nicole Jackson, Khieeda Ammre Henry Jackson, and Bella Jade Malia Walker; her mother, Dana Connetta Jackson; her father, Thomas Ramon Nolan; her brother, Jermaine Trio Jackson; her step father, Greg James Ruppert; her aunt, Telanda Marie Watley; her grandma, Karlous Willametta Griffin; her sister-in-law, Bre; her niece, Mahalia Jackson; her nephew, Cameron Jackson; cousins, other relatives, and friends, all of Des Moines.
