Missy was born to Carl Michael and Gloria Joan Self Jackson in Michigan on June 9, 1972. She was raised in the Baptist faith and truly loved life to the fullest. She was a licensed massage therapist at Kindred Spirits Massage Therapy in Hartselle. Missy was a phenomenal sketch artist that loved life and all it had to offer, often trying new things, successful or not, she was on to something else. Her greatest love was her family but her grandchildren who called her "Rims", were her world. She is going to be terribly missed by all who knew her.

Missy is preceded in death by her father, Carl "Mike" Jackson.

She is survived by her loving husband, Matthew Munger; son, Jackson Shaw; daughters, Raegan Wiley (Seth), and Kelsey Riendeau (John); step-children, Adam (Ashley) Munger,  Daniel (Kari) Munger,  Meredith (Kevin) Edmondson, Benjamin (Marty) Munger; mother, Joan Jackson, brother Michael Jackson (Kristi) and 14 grandchildren -  Greyson, Axel, Nash, Kreed, Nashoba, Lennon, Arabella, Hudson, Lyla, Brooks, Jovi, Nora, Shane, and Miles.
