Jacqueline (Jackie) Lorraine Denham-Littlefield was born to Mabel and John Denham Sr., in Anawalt, West Virginia, on November 28, 1947. She departed this life suddenly on Tuesday, November 26, 2013. Her husband, Willard E. Littlefield, mother Mabel Denham, father John Denham, Sr., and brother Alvin Valentine preceded Jacqueline in death. In 1961, as a teenager, Jackie moved to Columbus, Ohio, with her family, where she attended Central High School. Later on in life, Jackie and her siblings formed a group known as the “Valentines.” Those of us who knew Jackie know that she had a drive to sing and motivate others to sing.
