Ethel Moore Obituary
Publish in a newspaper
Dolly was blessed with hardworking hands from her many years of upholstery, working on the farm, gardening, and her most enjoyable, mushroom hunting. Family was her pride and joy, from her son, whom she loved so dearly, all the way down to her great-great-grandchildren. Above everything, Dolly's life was a testament to her strong and unwavering faith in her Lord Jesus Christ. It was always heavy on her heart that everyone knew the Lord and would be saved by His grace and one day walk with Jesus in Heaven.
Dolly is preceded in death by her parents, husband, John Moore; her son, Curtis Randall Melton; her daughter-in-law, Nancy (Sallee) Melton; and her many brothers and sisters.
Dolly is survived by grandson Scott Melton and wife Tammy, Dale Melton and wife Amie, great grandchildren Mallory (Jared) Ihde, Megan (Austin) Hunter, Makenzie (Bryson) Rader, Dylan Melton, Devin Melton, great- great grandchildren Adiya Rose and Gracey Hunter, Asa and Randi Ihde, step-children Elizabeth (Bill) Leek, Faye (Rocky) Koger, John (Dulce) Moore II, and many step grandchildren, step-great grandchildren, and step- great- great grandchildren.
