Jacquelyn was born June 10, 1974, in Albany, New York. She was the daughter of Dr. Lillie Beasley Glover and the late Major (Ret.) Herman W. Glover, JR. She grew up in Orangeburg, SC as a member of Williams Chapel AME Church and an affiliate of Evening Light Church of God in Laurens, SC. She joined First Baptist Church of Glen Arden in Upper Marlboro Maryland after relocation to Washington, DC. Jacquelyn attended the Child Development Learning Center and Felton Laboratory School on the campus of SC State University. After graduation from Wilkinson High School, she attended North Carolina A&T State University, Greensboro, NC and earned a Bachelor of Science degree in Architectural Engineering. Additional educational preparation includes a Business Leadership Development Certificate from John Hopkins University, Baltimore, MD; and a Master of Science degree in Engineering/Construction Engineering Management, The Catholic University of America, Washington, DC.

Jacquelyn spent 26 years working on several types of engineering and architectural projects. She served in the construction realm in leadership roles such as principal (CEO), partner, managing director, project manager, senior facilities engineer, as well as architectural engineering coordinator for private and public sector clients. She was a business development professional and a construction manager at heart. Her current position was Vice President, Business Development, Delon Hampton Associates, Chartered, Washington, DC/Baltimore, MD/Silver Springs, MD.

Jacquelyn was an exceptional daughter, godchild, niece, cousin, and friend. As we move out of our unhappy “state-of-mind” which followed her sudden departure, we have found comfort in knowing that she left a huge footprint that will last a lifetime.

Jacquelyn was preceded by her father-Herman W. Glover, Jr., godfather, Rudolph R. Glover, and grandparents.

Dear Dr. Glover, your beautiful daughter was one of the first people I at the Elliot&PriceRd site of Motorola when I moved west to Arizona. She was a kind and welcoming soror and in very short time a truly great friend. There are so many times we hung out and laughed and just had fun. But what stands out is her warm heart. I remember her calling me and telling me about our soror who had flu and sounded terrible by phone -we went at lunch that day and brought her soups, juice, etc -all Soror Jacqui's idea. Numerous times like that, she always thought if someone else. She was very active with Black Family Committee, A Kindred Ally, Membership/Sisterly Relations, the Arts Committee and many others. She was close to many of ASU undergrad chapter. At one point organizing a get-together to help them with an 11th hour task. I only went because Soror Jacqui asked. All graduate sorors (me included) ended up having fun on the undergrad project sharing our stories of our pledge memories - I forever am thankful for Jacqui's beauty inside and out. -Katherine J Alford
For Soror Jacqui's Family: "And ye now therefore have sorrow: but I will see you again, and your heart shall rejoice, and your joy no man taketh from you." - John 16:22

My sweet gentle giant, your loss will always be felt throughout the DMV community. I remain in a state of shock with your departure because we had just spoken. I pray for understanding and I ask the Lord to give your mom a strength and peace like none other. You are now our Angel resting in Glory. Miss you much
