My condolences and prayers are sent to Ms. Moore's family. I recently learned of her transition to her heavenly rewards. Ms. Moore was loved deeply by me and many others who attended Frink High School in LaGrange when she was a teacher there and was the successful girls' basketball coach. I was an eighth-grade student in her class and worked closely with her during her practices and games. Not only was she a high caliber teacher, she was an ongoing inspiration, advisor and friend who I lost contact with after I left the school. During her tenure, there were many times when she would take her players and students to her home for weekends and afternoons to aid our educational and athletic growth and development. Even though I did not see her for years after that, I finally re-connected with her in Durham many years later and found her to be as warming, inspiring, full of life and willing to share the wisdom that she possessed. Although this tribute is late, it is still relevant that people know that she was an angel who instilled life altering guidance and inspiration and from those of us who received these gifts, we now offer our prayers and thanks to the Lord for sending her into our orbit and for all that she did to guide us during our times together.

Francine and other family members just know that she did all that she could do in the time that she was able to share with us and we deeply loved her for who and what she was able to do. Her living was not in vain!!!

She will be missed!

Mary Moore was a true friend. We were like family. Her home was a second home to my two daughters. My home was a second home to her children. She was a teacher that all loved. Our lives will never be the same without her. Our love and condolences goes out to the family. The Joneses. Jesse, Bessie, Pam and Gwen.
