SHIRLEY MOORE

March 09, 2020

Shirley Skeen Moore, 92, went home to be with her Lord and Savior on Friday, March 6, 2020 at her home.

She was born to Tate and Trula Nash Skeen. She graduated from Wise High School in 1947. She devoted most of her time, attention and love to her dogs and especially her best four-legged friend, Deeno. She was a member of Nash’s Chapel Baptist Church. She left here doing what she loved the most, caring for her dog.

She was preceded in death by her husband, Willie Vernoy Moore.

Her memory will forever be cherished by two sons, Randy Moore of Wise, and Steven Moore and wife Rita of Johnson City, TN; four granddaughters, Briana Moore Pullano and husband Matt of Rocky Mount, NC, Natasha Kennedy of Wise, Amanda Darden and husband Gib of Conway, SC and Stephanie Moore-Meade and husband Chuck of Johnson City, TN; ten great-grandchildren, Aden and Berkeley Pullano, Graham, Grey and Greer Kennedy, Maggie Fisher and Gus Darden, and Rachel and Charley Meade; and a host of other relatives and friends. Graham, Grey, Greer, Aden and Berkeley will certainly miss their visits and good times with “Mamaw”. “For I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worth comparing with the glory that is to be revealed to us” – Romans 8:18.

The family would like to thank all of those who gave of their time to help with Shirley’s care. A special thanks to her special caregiver, Gaynelle Dotson; and special cousins, Joetta and Don Dingus.
