In Loving Memory of Shirley B. Moore
August 25, 1936 - November 14, 2025
Shirley Moore was born on August 25, 1936, in the historic city of Savannah, Georgia. Her early years were spent surrounded by the charm and warmth of her hometown until her family relocated to Pine Lake, Georgia. Shirley's formative years were marked by her energetic spirit and love for academia and athletics, especially basketball. She graduated from Clarkston High School in 1955, where she was an active and proud member of the school community.
Shortly after high school, Shirley married her beloved husband, Allen "Dink" Moore, in 1956. Together, they built a loving and supportive home, welcoming two sons and one daughter. Shirley's devotion to her family was unwavering and served as the foundation of her life. She was a nurturing mother and a loyal partner, always putting her family's needs before her own.
Shirley began her professional career as an administrative assistant during Governor Carl Sanders's term, displaying diligence, integrity, and a strong work ethic. She also contributed her talents to the Georgia State Highway Department, where she was respected by colleagues for her competence and kindness. In 1969, Shirley chose to retire from her career to dedicate herself fully to raising her children, embodying the values of selflessness and commitment that defined her character.
Faith was central to Shirley's life. She was an active and devoted member of Rowland Hills Baptist Church, where she participated in various ministries and built lifelong friendships. After moving to Conyers, Georgia, in 1977, Shirley and Dink continued their faith journey with the Rockbridge Baptist Church and later with Haven Fellowship Church. Her involvement in these communities was marked by her compassion, generosity, and desire to serve others.
Shirley and Dink spent their years in Conyers enjoying retirement, cherishing time with friends, neighbors, and their growing family. Shirley's legacy is one of love, faith, and unwavering devotion to those around her. She will be remembered for her welcoming smile, gentle spirit, and the countless ways she touched the lives of all who knew her.
