Beatrice Remer Moore
May 11, 1916 - May 14, 2011

Bea was born to Isadore and Myrtle (Urban) Remer on May 11, 1916 in St. Paris Ohio. Bea was raised in a Jewish family and was the older sister of two brothers, Herbert and Isaac.
As a young woman Bea wanted to become a teacher and had an opportunity to study in Paris, but WWII broke out and she was unable to go. At that time Jewish women were not allowed to be teachers so Bea pursued a degree in Social Work and received her Masters of Social Work after years of study. She worked for a time in Baltimore, MD and then in Buffalo, NY. She eventually moved to San Mateo, CA where she remained for many years working as a clinical social worker. It was there she met her lifetime friend, Hortense Miller and they shared a home for over 60 years. In 1987 Bea and Hortense moved to Washington State to settle at Panorama City. Bea was very active at Panorama volunteering for many activities and being a part of the chorus and drama clubs. She also used her social worker skills while working on behalf of the Panorama City Benevolent Fund. Bea enjoyed her years at Panorama City and developed wonderful friendships.
Bea is survived by many family members but was particularly close to her nieces,
Lynda Troy of Ohio, David Remer of Florida, Mollie of California, Marcy of Nevada and a cousin, Paula Shuer of California. Bea was predeceased by her parents and both of her brothers.
Memorial can be made in Bea's name to Safeplace or to the Panorama Benevolent Fund.
