At an early age she was baptized and accepted Christ as her personal savior having united with St. Paul AME Church in Newport, AR. Upon moving to the Flint area she later united with Vernon Chapel AME Church having joined under the leadership of the late Rev. Reuben Russell and where she had remained a faithful member for over 67 years. She served as a stewardess and a member of the Senior Usher Board. While in Flint the former Glenn Dora Flemming later met and united in Holy Matrimony to the love of her life and the Man of her dreams, James Carter Moore on August 18, 1961. To this union 2 children were born, James Derek and Sherri Lynn. Mrs. Moore was gainfully employed by the former Walter Winchester Hospital as a Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) during the 1960’s. She later continued her nursing career and became a Registered Nurse having graduated from Mott Community College and Hurley Hospital School of Nursing. She retired from Hurley Hospital in 1994 after 25 years of service as a Dialysis Nurse. When in good health, Glenn enjoyed many hobbies including, baking, gardening, ceramics and quilting (where she made several beautiful quilts over the years.) She also loved to travel going on Fishing Trips with her family throughout Canada. Most of all she and her husband enjoyed camping out with their fifth wheel, being a former member of the NAARVA Camping Club they were able to explore a lot of sites having traveled the entire United States. For their 50th anniversary, they traveled to Hawaii as their 50th state to visit. They were also blessed to have spent their winter months for the past 30 years in Arizona and they also traveled to Spain. Glenn was full of Life and loved everyone she encountered showering them with gifts or a recipe, hugs and kisses. She touched those around her with her beautiful Spirit and contagious smile. She often spoke words of wisdom to all the people she loved, sharing stories and jokes of past experiences and especially loved to jokingly say that she had a BMW (a Black Man Working). Glenn enjoyed attending church, watching TV, spending time with her family and friends. She truly loved her husband, they were an Item (you see one, you see the other); Holidays were always extra special in the Moore Household, always plenty of Food, Cakes, love, and laughter. After her retirement, Glenn continued to stay busy, she enjoyed sewing, walking and later became a member of the Cancer Retreat. Glenn touched the hearts of many and will be sorely missed by us all. Mrs. Glenn Dora Moore leaves to cherish her precious memory: her devoted husband and companion of 66 years, James C. Moore of Mt.
