Jacqueline Del Giudice

Jacqueline Del Giudice, born on December 27, 1962, peacefully left this world surrounded by her loving family on November 12, 2023.

A graduate of Downers Grove North High School, Jacqueline embarked on a diverse career, leaving her mark in banking, hospitality, and the nurturing realm of nannying. However, her proudest and most cherished role was that of a devoted mother.

Known for her boundless energy, Jacqueline found happiness in keeping both mind and body active. From dancing and live music to traveling, sporting events, and indulging in the arts, she embraced life's experiences with open arms. Her love for puzzles and crosswords was balanced by her passion for horror movies at the cinema. That said, Christmas remained her favorite occasion  to celebrate. She will be warmly remembered for her festive holiday decorations which typically included 4 Christmas trees around her home. 

Beyond her personal pursuits, Jacqueline was a beacon of generosity, consistently supporting charitable organizations, especially those benefiting children. Her kindness extended to everyday encounters, where she brightened strangers' days with random acts of generosity, like anonymously covering the cost of the next car in the drive-thru.

Jacqueline's vibrant personality was a mosaic of love, resilience, humor, generosity, strength, and nurturing spirit. An outgoing and energetic soul, she was a witty and frank storyteller, ensuring laughter and joy in every conversation. In heaven, she is sure to continue bringing down the house with her lively spirit.

Jacqueline Del Giudice's legacy is not only defined by her professional achievements but also by the countless lives she touched through her kindness, laughter, and unwavering love for her family and friends. She will be dearly missed and fondly remembered by all who had the privilege of knowing her.

She is survived by her devoted spouse, Joseph Del Giudice, and cherished children, Lauren Ashley Lawson and Alyssa Danielle Lawson. Jacqueline was a loving daughter to Maria Eustolia G. Gil and sister to Georgina Gil Bauer, Diana Rodriguez, and Alexander Gil. She loved her nieces, nephews, and extended family dearly. She was preceded in death by her father Arnulfo Gil.
