Elder Jacqulyn Smith Lewis Little, affectionately known to many as a beacon of love and light, was born on July 2, 1956, in Sumter County, Georgia. She was the cherished daughter of Lester Smith, Sr. and Rugenia P. King Smith, and grew up in a family that valued education and community. Jacqulyn was educated in the public schools of Sumter County and graduated from Union High School in 1974.

Jacqulyn was a devoted wife, mother, grandmother, sister, and friend. Her life was marked by her deep love for her family and her passion for traveling. She had a gift for preaching and uplifting others, using her smiles and laughter to encourage those around her. Jacqulyn believed in leading by example, with love, and often shared her favorite saying: "Loving God, loving people," inspired by 1 John 4:20-21:   Whoever claims to love God yet hates a brother or sister is a liar. For whoever does not love their brother and sister, whom they have seen, cannot love God, whom they have not seen. And he has given us this command: Anyone who loves God must also love their brother and sister.

A dedicated member of the Eighth United Holiness Church, Inc., Jacqulyn's faith was central to her life. She was known for her ability to inspire others through the gospel and was a source of strength and comfort to many in her community.

Jacqulyn was preceded in death by her parents, her first husband Noble Lewis, her son Noble Lowveski Lewis, her   sisters Goldie Smith Walker, Merlene Smith Faulk, Clara Smith Tyson,  her brothers Lester Smith, Jr. and Levi Smith and her uncle, Veteran John King, Jr.

Elder Jacqulyn Smith Lewis Little transitioned peacefully on April 8, 2026, leaving behind a legacy that will continue to  inspire and uplift those who knew her. Her life was a testament to the power of love, faith, and community. Though she is no longer with us, her spirit lives on in the hearts of all who were touched by her kindness and wisdom.

She leaves behind a legacy of love and cherished memories with her husband, Antonio D. Little of Warner Robins, Georgia; her children, Antwan O'neil Lewis of Cobb, Georgia, and Elder Frank Douglas Lewis, Sr. (Pamela) of Americus, Georgia; her stepson, Kevin Eberhardt of Americus, Georgia. Her grandchildren, Frank Lewis, Jr., JaDashia Lewis, Kavon Lewis, Natylli Lewis, Antwan Lewis, Jr., Zechariah Lewis,   Diamond Lewis, and China Lewis; her great-grandchildren Frank Lewis, III, Brook Lynn Lewis, Emory Lewis, Ameria Lewis, and Armani Lewis; her sisters Denise Jeane Whitehead (Tony) of San Diego, California, Valerie Ann Smith of Wingsville, Missouri, and Susie Nelly Lopez of Far Rockaway, New York; her brother Joseph Lee Smith of Unadilla, Georgia; and her aunt Nadine King of Smithville, Georgia. She will be dearly missed by a host of nieces, nephews, cousins, other relatives, and many sorrowing friends.
