Joyce Jackson To Be Honored Posted by Greg Bates on July 26, 2009, 3:44 am 64.12.117.66 For those of you who do not know yet, Jim's secretary Joyce Gray Jackson will be honored this week in Nashville for her work in the country music industry. The award is given by the SOURCE Foundation. SOURCE, a non-profit organization of Music Row's female executives, created the Foundation Awards several years ago to honor women in the country music industry who received little recognition during their careers for their contributions to the growth of country music. The women’s group will host the Source Foundation Awards, July 30. The awards commemorating the outstanding careers of the honorees will permanently hang in the Source Room, located at the Musicians Hall of Fame Museum. This years honorees are **Joyce Jackson**, Pat McCoy, Peggy Lamb, Sandy Neese, Margaret Parker and Marion Keisker MacInnnes. I am sure Joyce will have plenty to say about this later, I just wanted to let everyone know and say a big CONGRATULATIONS Joyce!  Post a Response

You deserve every accolade possible for devoting your life to our beloved "Gentleman Jim Reeves". I'm glad I didn't move to Nashville and get that job before you, I wouldn't have done it justice as you have! Ha. Always for Jim and you, Doris  Post a Response

Few people knew Mary and Jim as Joyce did. Her relationship went further than an employee, she was a personal friend to the end. She is much deserving of this award.  Post a Response
