Condolence: I served with Gene Jackman on the Nautilus from 1971-1974. He was my CPO and friend. I have many good memories. I remember especially visiting his home and family. He had a Great Dane dog along with an entire Kennel for keeping a number of dogs. I remember helping him install a slate slab for his new patio one time. I'll never forget his love for Mercedes Benz cars and how he appreciated the engineering expertise and efficiency they had. He had one and his wife had one. He had me convinced to buy one also but they became much more expensive to buy when the Arab Oil Embargo came. He is a fine man and friend I can never forget. It all seems like yesterday. I give all heart felt sympathy and condolences to his family.

Condolence: My sincerest condolences to the Jackson family. I too served in Nautilus, but with his brother, Richard at an earlier time (1957-1960),so I never had a chance to know Gene. Still, he is my 'shipmate' as far as I'm concerned.

Condolence: I am so sorry for your loss. I served with Gene on the USS Nautilus from 1970-1974. I was reactor operator. Gene was always helpful to all who knew him.33

Condolence: My deepest condolences to all of Gene's family. I served with Gene on Nautilus from 1970 to 1974. He was my CPO and my friend, and I remember those days often.

Condolence: When death separates us from our loved ones it can be difficult to find comfort. Knowing that God cares so deeply for us when our hearts are broken due to grief can bring us a sense of peace and hope (Psalms 34:18). May He sustain you in his loving care in the days ahead as you cherish your most treasured memories of Eugene.

Condolence: Dear Jr, David, Richard, Rebecca, and families,
I learned of Gene's passing with deep sadness and heartfelt condolences for all of you. I have such fond memories of him from my childhood growing up in Buckland. He was always kind and had a generous heart. My thoughts and prayers are with you at this difficult time. Laurie Benoit

Condolence: Dear Molly Jackman & family,
I received your note of Gene's passing. On behalf of the Nautilus Alumni Association shipmates and their families, I send you sincere condolences on the loss of your beloved Gene. I will send a notice to Gene's shipmates. Gene's departure on Eternal Patrol will also be entered in the log at the Nautilus Alumni website.

I first met Gene at the 2012 New London reunion. I recall him being unbelievably full of energy despite appearing 60ish. At that reunion I was "volunteered" for Nautilus Scholarship duty and Gene was assigned to monitor me while "UI". Gene always said he didn't do much to bring me along, but, I say he lit the fire and that was all that was needed. Thank you Gene!

May our Lord bless and console you during this time of sorrow.

Condolence: Please accept our sincere sympathy on the passing of Gene. We were classmates at Arms in Shelburne Falls. May he rest in peace.

Condolence: Our thoughts and prayers are with the family. Molly, David, Connie take care.

Condolence: Molly - We always enjoyed seeing you and Gene at our cookouts, and at Arms Class Reunions. Gene will be missed. Our prayers are with you and your family at this sad time. Fred and Jan Smead
