April 8, 1927 — Oct. 14, 2008

Jacqueline “Jackie” Moore, 81, of Grants Pass died Tuesday at Royale Gardens Health & Rehabilitation Center.

She was born in Cottage Grove five minutes after her twin sister. She was raised in Oakridge with her sister and brother, Pat Morgan. She attended high school in Sweet Home, where she graduated in 1945.

After graduation she met and married Bill Moore, and they had three children. From 1967 to 1982 she lived in Grants Pass. She then resided in Phoenix, Ariz., for 25 years before returning to Grants Pass for her final days. In her lifetime, she was a “jill-of-all-trades,” a telephone operator, mill worker, homemaker, wonderful mother, bartender, truck driver and airplane engine inspector. Not only did she keep homes, she helped build them also and she could grow anything.

She loved to play bingo! She also enjoyed crocheting, gardening and was a great seamstress.

Survivors include a son, Ron Moore and wife Linda of Sweet Home; two daughters, Leslye Jones and husband Doug of Reedsport, and Anita Short and husband Bruce of Grants Pass; sister Joyce Boylan of Cottage Grove; dear friend Paul Felts of Grants Pass; four grandchildren; and 10 great-grandchildren.

She was preceded in death by her brother, Pat Morgan; and parents Earle and Zena Morgan.

She will be missed by her family and friends.

No services are planned. Hull & Hull Funeral Directors are in charge of arrangements.
