Margaret Dell Carmack Moore
Margaret Dell Carmack Moore
On Sept. 12, 2022, at about 10:45 p.m., a flurry of angels led by our Lord filled the room of Margaret Dell Carmack Moore to the brim. They took our precious mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, aunt and friend with them as they departed for Heaven where she will reside forever with our precious Lord. She passed away peacefully in her sleep for which we are thankful. She was 99 years old, adventuresome, loved to travel and lived life to the fullest. Born April 12, 1923, in Weleetka, Oklahoma, she spent most of her life in Texas. 09/24/2022 10:16 AM
