Walter Thomas Jackson was a Presbyterian Minister.¹ He was educated Temple Theological Seminary/ Princeton Theological Seminary.⁴ From "Looking Over My Shoulder: My View through a Manse Window"
by J. Calvin K. Jackson

In the closing days of February, Walter enters the hospital for the last time. Late one night, Louise asks me to come down to his room to serve him and the family Communion. His death is near. We all feel the sharp impact of each fleeting minute. With a keen sense of anxiety, I start the liturgy in our Book of Worship for serving the sacrament to the sick. Yes, the words are familiar and our training in Seminary bids us to read them carefully, but the profound poignancy of this moment is something else. In the midst of the liturgy, Uncle Wally interrupts me, "Calvin, there are two distinct commands in those words, 'Take. Eat.'" I begin again. Just a few hours after this bedside service, Wally dies. Thereafter, whenever I conduct the Communion liturgy, these final words of Wally ring in my ears, as if he is very close by. He is a teacher to the very end.
