Jeannine Moore passed away May 17, 2022 in Longview, Washington at the age of 86 surrounded by her loving family. Jeannine was born in Zebulon, Kentucky to Morrell and Truly Freeman. Her family moved to Washington State when she was 8 years old.

In 1953, she married Franklin "Buzz" Moore in Seattle and they made their home in Morton. The family moved to Cathlamet in 1962. Jeannine worked for the Wahkiakum Conservation District and for Seattle First National Bank, retiring as bank manager. After retirement, Jeannine and Buzz enjoyed wintering in Arizona. Jeannine was very artistic and enjoyed sewing, knitting, crocheting, quilting, pottery, cooking, and canning. She enjoyed watching and feeding the birds in her neighborhood, especially the hummingbirds and the crows. The crows recognized her and would only eat if she fed them. She would sometimes have a freezer full of bread for them. She loved the dachshunds she and Buzz had over the years. Most of all, she loved and cherished spending time with her family and friends.

Jeannine is survived by daughters and sons in law Debra (Dean) Takko, Terry (Steve) Amondson, and son Greg Moore, sisters Joan Green and Arden Cattanach, 7 grandchildren, 10 great grandchildren and many nieces and nephews. She was preceded in death by husband Buzz, parents Morrell and Truly and brothers Wade and Gary Freeman.
