Tom Jackson: Queer Eye favourite dies aged 63, Cause of death, Complete details || bollycolourstv
Jackson, who lived in Georgia in the US, regarded his appearance on Queer Eye as a "highlight of his life", the obituary said.
"He enjoyed the notoriety and shared his experience [on the show] with whoever would listen!" it continued.
Jackson appeared in the opening episode, called You Can't Fix Ugly, which helped set the tone of the new iteration of the series.
The original Queer Eye series ran from 2003 to 2007 on the cable television network Bravo.
It was relaunched by Netflix with a new cast of makeover experts, each with their own specialist areas - culture, fashion, grooming, food and design.
The tone of the rebooted show was slightly different from the original. Producers moved it from New York to America's Deep South and began choosing a wider variety of men to take part.
Jackson was the first person to be made over by the "fab five" when the show was rebooted by Netflix in 2018.
Paying tribute, Queer Eye's stars said they were saying goodbye to a "member of the family" with a "heavy heart".
Jackson had been diagnosed with gland cancer metastatic adenocarcinoma, according to the obituary posted by his funeral home.
