Jacqueline was a devoted and loving mother to her two beloved children, always prioritizing their needs and nurturing them with endless love and care.

A proud 1995 graduate of Selma High School, Jacqueline cherished her time there and carried the spirit and lessons learned throughout her life. Her legacy continues through her children, Shawn N. Cole and Kirsten T. Cole, both of Selma, Alabama, who were the pride and joy of her life.

She shared a devoted partnership of 29 years with Timothy Cole of Selma, AL, who stood by her side through all of life's challenges and triumphs. Jacqueline is also survived by her loving family: her mother, Oliva Walton of Selma, AL; brothers Derrick (Rekeshia) Walton, Joseph (Christine) Williams, Jr., Kenneth (Vonda) Wilmer, Jerome (Dorothy) Williams, and Daniel (Danielle) Williams; sisters Sandra (Dereke) Williams Furlow, Josephine (Duane) Givan, and Deborah Albert.

Jacqueline held a special bond with her cousins Anthony Starks, James Edward Walton, Teresa L. Walton, Calvin Jerome (Dorothy) Starks, Christopher Walton, Trinity Smith, Tamia Smith, and Serenthia Walton, who was both a cousin and a dear friend. 

Her life was enriched by a host of nieces, nephews, cousins, and other relatives who will forever cherish her memory.
