Born in Arkansas, Jackie L. Garrison relocated to Metro Detroit as a teen and wed Charmie Currie in 1949.

After raising their family, she was inspired to pursue politics by her husband, who served on the Wayne County Commission in the 1970s. She spent 20 years on the commission, was elected city clerk in 1993, and held that position for 12 years.

In addition to being Chairperson of the Election Commission and supervising the Department of Elections, Mrs. Currie also had the responsibility of being the official keeper of the records for the City of Detroit.  Prior to becoming Clerk, she was a long serving and effective Wayne County Commissioner where she held that position for 20 years. While there, she helped create the Juvenile Task Force and worked to improve Metro Airport.

A longtime member of the NAACP, Mrs. Currie also was involved with the National Congress of Black Women. She served in local government for 32 years.

Other survivors include three sons, Charmie, Jr., Gregory and Alvin; daughter Gayle Carter; five grandchildren; four great-grandchildren; brother, the Rev. Franklin Garrison; and many nieces and nephews.

Paradoxes...





Paradoxes is a collection of inspirational poems which depict the universal truths reflected in mankind's struggle with the principle of moral conduct and human interaction. Throughout my life's journey, I have been immensely inspired by the atomic contradictions of mankind's quest for morality and self aggrandizement. The words reveled to by people of all walks of life, from the near and distant past, in spoken word and written text; awaken in the pages of Paradoxes as universal reflections of the nature of human interaction. Paradoxes will challenge your preconceived notions of morality and invoke an internal reflection of your encounters with human kind. Are you on the right side of the Paradoxes?
