Sylvia Jacquiline Wilkinson

Miss Jackie, Aunt Jacqui, Mom, and Grandma will be missed.

From the red clay of South Carolina as a child, arriving in Michigan as a teenager, Mom and her siblings were literally born and raised in a tar paper shack smack dab in the middle of the Bible Belt. Jacqui's siblings are Janice, the late Betty, Theta, Hilda and Darryl.

She is survived by 7 great grandchildren (and one on the way!) 10 grandchildren, 3 daughters through marriage (Anne Wilkinson-Burke, Victoria Birk Hill and Pamela Kelly) and her sons, Dan and Steve Doletzky.

Jacqui was well known for dancing in the kitchen, balancing spoons on her nose with her grandkids and seeing to it that no one messed with her or hers! She was active at every church she ever belonged - Christ Church Grosse Pointe, Peace Lutheran, Ascension and many more.

Mom’s love of Jesus and her old school, Southern ways always rose to the top.

She was classy, stylish, beautiful, and had no problem getting dirt under her well manicured nails if the task at hand called for it.

We will all miss her, but we know she is up in heaven, making sure that she and Colin get the best seat at the Lord's table.

Her life will be celebrated on April 22nd, at Christ Church Grosse Pointe with a service beginning at 11:00 A.M.
