FOREVER A PART OF OUR LIVES!
Shirley Ann Moore
August 9, 1944 – September 27, 2021
We honor and celebrate the life of our beloved mother Shirley Ann Moore.
Born August 9, 1944 in Bossier City, Louisiana where she lived and grew
up. Born to Florence Elizabeth Brooks, Shirley was the only child and was
eager to start her own family. She often shared that having four children
was her greatest desire, which the Lord blessed her to have.
Shirley married Jerome Moore in Bossier City, Louisiana where they raised
their four children, Elizabeth, Gary, Michael and Rosalind.
Invited to visit Seattle Washington by her aunt in the summer of 1966, Shirley
fell in love with the Northwest and a seed was planted in her heart to
someday return. That dream would come true in the year 1971. Shirley returned
to Seattle, Washington with her four children and they began a new life
together, as a family. This was the very thing she had prayed and asked
God for and her children were the apple of her eye. She was brave and
courageous in raising her four children. She poured her life into motherhood,
always attentive, always loving and always caring for them. Her friendship was
a bond that shaped her family’s life to this day.
Shirley loved her job at Children’s Hospital where she worked in the
Environmental Services Department for thirty three years until she retired. She
was well known on her job and precious to many who adored her.
She has always drawn people close to her with her authentic life and her unique
humor. Her genuine love for her dear friends and extended family will live on
in our hearts forever!
She leaves behind her four children, four grandchildren and six great
grandchildren, who passionately love her and cared for her until she was taken
up by the angels of heaven.
FOREVER A PART OF OUR LIVES!

My prayers are going out to you all and wishing peace Shirley. You were all such a close family and I hope it brings you comfort knowing she will be missed a lot.
You all are in our thoughts and prayers. Your cousins here in Louisiana are praying. We thank God for allowing Shirley 77 years. She outlived her mom, her aunts and her uncles. God promised threescore and ten and she went beyond that. What a blessing!!
I have so many memories of growing up in Louisiana with my cousins, thinking about the laughter, fun, food, music and so much more. God bless and keep you all comforted in his loving arms. Liz, Gary, Mike and Rosalind I love you and I’m constantly praying for you. *Jackie
