From the Cody Enterprise:
Cody lost a living legend and the art world an icon when Harry Jackson died Monday, April 25.
The internationally-renowned artist, who turned 87 on April 18, passed away at the V.A.Hospital in Sheridan. He finally succumbed to the life-long effects of head wounds he suffered as a front-line combat marine and combat artist in the Pacific Theatre of World War II.
