Jacqueline A. Kaminski

Jacqueline A. (Charland) Kaminski, of Tiverton, and formerly of Fall River, a cherished mother, peacefully passed away on Friday, February 14, 2025, at the age of 93. She was the loving and dedicated wife of the late Edward Kaminski for 41 years. Born on December 5, 1931, she was raised in the warm embrace of the Town of Cumberland, Rhode Island, where she blossomed into the remarkable woman remembered by all who knew her. A graduate of Cumberland High School, Jacqueline's educational journey marked the beginning of a life filled with hard work and dedication. Jacqueline's career was rooted in the banking industry, where her journey began as a bank teller at Fall River Trust. Through her unwavering commitment and passion for her work, she advanced to the role of assistant manager at Bank of Boston, America, leaving behind a legacy of professionalism and kindness that touched the lives of her colleagues and customers alike. In her later years, she was a volunteer at St. Theresa's Parish.

Above all, Jacqueline's greatest joy came from spending time with her family. She is survived by her sons, Thomas E. Kaminski and his companion Raeann Morrow, and David J. Kaminski and his wife Lisa Kaminski. She was the sister-in-law of Elizabeth J. “Betty” Charland and aunt of numerous nieces and nephews. 

She is now reunited with her dear siblings: Edgar Charland, Mildred Ulak, Rita M. Conway, Marguerite St. Jean, James Charland, Yvonne Vadenais, Robert Charland, and John P. Charland, Joseph Richard Charland, and her parents, Joseph and Alice (Dame) Charland.

A visitation will be held Thursday, February 20 at 8:30 AM to 9:30 AM at the Auclair Funeral Home, with a Funeral Mass at 10:00 AM in St. Theresa's Church, Stafford Rd. Tiverton. Burial will follow at Notre Dame Cemetery.
