Jacqueline Coral Whitton, 79, of Arcadia Township, passed away peacefully on Saturday, April 26. She was born April 15, 1946, in Detroit to parents Charles and Marvel Mistretta(Boomer). “Jackie”, a devoted wife, mother, sister, grandmother and accomplished professional, lived life on her terms, creating her path through intelligence, determination, ambition, and artistry.

Jackie built a successful career in finance, becoming a Certified Public Accountant before transitioning into financial planning. She worked as Deputy Finance Director and later owned Stonybrook Financial, in Oakland Township, where she was a certified financial planner. She adored her clients, who adored her right back.

In 1966, Jackie married David, the love of her life, sharing 60 years filled with dancing, music, travel and adventure. Their love was marked by deep companionship and unwavering support.
