Obituary for Demetris S Moore
Demetris S. Moore was born July 25, 1970 to the union of Roosevelt
Moore Jr. and Gloria Moore. Demetris accepted Christ into her life and
joined New Galilee Baptist Church in 2008 where she was baptized under
the leadership of Rev. Micheal Ross.
Demetris attended Austin High School where she earned her diploma
in 1988. After graduating she enlisted in the U.S. Navy, serving
four adventurous years. Honorably discharged in 1992, Demetris
discovered a passion for taking care of the elderly. She began
working as a Nursing Assistant at Westshore Nursing Home.
Demetris was born into eternity April 27, 2020 after her strong
battle with cancer. Demetris preceded her dad in death.
Demetris leaves to mourn and cherish her memories: Her mother, Gloria; her two children; daughter,
Monesia; her grandchildren, Makhari and Khamari; one son, Marthael; six siblings, Larry, Pamela
(Donald), Andrea, Micheal, Yvette and April; and a host of aunts, uncles, cousins and friends.
How will I fix this broken heart? Where do I turn to repair my soul? How many tears have to fall to
bring you back whole? I will cry myself dry if that's what it takes. The love over the years you've
given can't be replaced. HOW? How do I smile knowing you won't be there to smile back at me?
Knowing you won't be there to laugh at me. HOW? How does this make my strong Ma?
You told me I was stronger but all I feel is pain. How will I gain the strength to finally, feel the same.
HOW? How was I so blessed to be a part of you? Someone who presents was so profound.
I'm not sure what God has planned for me. But I got my angel now. I love u momma ~Nesha
In the 40 years of knowing you we have experienced love laughter joy and pain. Help me to rest in
your love and feel the peace which surpasses all understanding help me to feel your love
and comfort. Lord we pray for the power to be gentle, the strength to be forgiving, the patience
to be understanding and the endurance to accept the consequence of holding to what we believe is
right. I will cherish our memories in my heart forever. ~Lynetta
I will never forget the memories of you and everything that you do. The stories you told the love that
you hold the smile in your eyes the pride in your walk and the way of your talk. You kept it real a
woman of strength and beauty you will forever be my Angel in the sky.
I love you tt your niece, ~lique
