The Beautiful One
On Thursday, January 14, 2021, Jacqueline D. Robertson-Gilliam received the crown of righteousness and entered into eternal peace with her Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Jackie was born on April 04, 1948, a daughter of the late Claude E. Chavis Sr. and the late Donnie D. Chavis. She was a native of Norfolk and the widow of Ronnie Gilliam. She was also an active member of Greater Grace Ministries in Norfolk, VA. Jackie thoroughly enjoyed laughing. She also loved the Fifty Shades of Gray trilogy. She was the pillar of strength to her family and friends and thoroughly enjoyed telling everyone what to do and how to do it. She was the boss of everyone in her family, and everyone knew it. Jackie was a blessing to everyone she encountered.
She is survived by her oldest son Jesse O. Robertson, her one and only daughter Johnay L. Brown, and her son Rashaad Gilliam. She is also survived by her brothers Claude E. Chavis Jr., George Chavis, Donald Ray Chavis, and Roland Chavis; and her sisters Claudette Chavis, Charlene Chavis, and Patricia Perkins.

January 24, 2021 at 9:12 amTo my nephews and my niece I want you to know how much I loved and will always love my beautiful sister Jackie. She was my best friend, my confidant but most of all she was my Big D after momma passed. I will treasure always beautiful sisterhood stories we shared with one another and the love we shared with each other. She will forever be with me especially as I look around my home at all the things she has given me and embrace her with a smile in great remembrance. Love you all very much and thanking you for such a wonderful lady as your mom and my big sister. TrishAnn as she would call me
