Obituary for Peggy Rebecca Moore

Peggy Rebecca "Beckie" (Russell) Moore, age 84 of Kingsland, TX entered her eternal home on Wednesday, December 7th after a yearlong battle with COVID; pneumonia; COPD; and a stroke. Beckie was born June 30, 1938, in Liberty Hill, TX as the fifth child of Lemuel J. Russell, Sr. and Neva Elizabeth (Windsor) Russell. She was preceded in death by sisters Martha Mihlberger; Doris Sealey; Albena Proctor; and brother Lemuel J. (Bud) Russell, Jr.

Beckie was a 1956 graduate of Georgetown High School and attended Mary Hardin Baylor University for one year prior to a 64-year marriage to Roland J. Moore. The couple enjoyed spending weekends on Lake LBJ and relocated from Copperas Cove to the hill country in 1968. With a strong work ethic, she owned and operated a bookkeeping service, a local florist; and assisted her husband in a local auto parts business.

In addition to her husband, Beckie is survived by her daughter Elizabeth Rolenn Turner; two grandchildren Tyler J. Newlin and Tara K. Kilgore (husband, Rusty); two great grandchildren Carter Allen Kilgore and Audrey Tyler Kilgore; life-long friend Hanes Segler; and many nieces, nephews, and cousins.

Beckie enjoyed floral designing and was a gifted artist. Some of her artwork is displayed here today. She and Roland shared a mutual love for traveling and genealogy. They were blessed to experience and share many travel memories throughout their marriage. She will be greatly missed by the many people she loved and who loved her.

The family would like to express their gratitude to Granite Mountain Baptist Church and their kitchen angels for the use of their facility and the fellowship luncheon.
