In Loving Memory of Michelle Denise Jacobs
Sunrise: July 3, 1982 – Sunset: March 3, 2025
With heavy hearts, we announce the sudden and tragic passing of Michelle Denise Jacobs, a beloved daughter, mother, sister, aunt, niece, and friend. Her departure has left an irreplaceable void in the hearts of her family, friends, and the Columbus, Ohio community, where she was a beacon of love, kindness, and service.
At the core of Michelle's life was her unwavering devotion to her family. She was the foundation of love and support, always placing the well-being of her loved ones above all else. Her home radiated warmth, laughter, and cherished memories, making everyone who entered feel like family. Beyond her immediate household, Michelle extended her nurturing spirit to others, taking on roles as a caregiver, mentor, and confidante, embodying the essence of unconditional love.
Michelle's passion for helping others was evident in the overwhelming outpouring of love and support from the community. She firmly believed in the power of giving, always leading with an open heart and a willingness to uplift those in need. She began her career at Eastland Care Center, where she dedicated herself to assisting elderly individuals with their daily needs, providing care, companionship, and dignity. Recognizing an even greater calling, she later transitioned to Nationwide Children's Hospital, where her passion for service flourished. There, she became a pillar of strength and comfort to countless families, offering unwavering support to children and their loved ones in times of need.
Outside of her professional life, Michelle remained deeply involved in charitable efforts, donating clothes to local shelters, participating in community drives, and offering a helping hand wherever it was needed. Her selflessness and dedication to service were gifts from Jehovah God, and she lived by these values every single day.
Michelle was a source of inspiration, encouraging others to embrace their authentic selves and to love deeply. Her vibrant energy, unwavering faith, and commitment to bettering the lives of those around her made a lasting impression on everyone she encountered.
Though her time on this earth was far too short, Michelle's legacy will live on in the countless lives she touched. We find comfort in knowing that her spirit will continue to inspire acts of kindness, generosity, and love for years to come.
She is survived by her devoted parents, Jeanine and Charles Jacobs; her beloved children, Diarra Imani Bradley and Zymere Cloud; her cherished godchildren, Chaquala Martin and Dousheet "Lil Sheek" Williams Jr.; her loving siblings, Alisha (DeCarlos) Jacobs and Ashley (Sherman) Annie Jacobs (Mines), her best friend and sister in spirit, Carletta Upchurch; her treasured nephews, Rayshawn Goins and Santino Cleveland; her dear nieces, Taniko and Talisha Cannaday; God sister and brother Miyaka and Stevie Thomas, and a sisterhood of many, along with a host of Aunts, Uncles, nieces, nephews, cousins, and lifelong friends.
Michelle, you were a guiding light in our lives, and your love, dedication, and generosity will never be forgotten. Rest in peace, knowing that your memory will forever be cherished.
"A life that touches others goes on forever."
