Joyce Etoylle Hoskins Moore

Joyce Etoylle Hoskins Moore was born in 1929 in Stuttgart, Arkansas.  She graduated to heaven on February 7, 2020 in Fort Worth, Texas.  A Celebration of Life and Jesus will be held at 10:30 AM, Saturday, February 15, 2020 at Brazos Covenant Ministries.  A Gathering will be held from 6:30 PM to 8:00 PM, Friday, February 14, 2020 at Wiley Funeral Home, Granbury.

Like many depression babies, Joyce learned how to take the least and make the most.  She remembered the radio announcement of Pearl Harbor and how many of her fellow male students went to fight during WWII.  She graduated from Stuttgart High School and from Braughn’s Business College in Memphis, Tennessee.

She gave her life to Jesus at an early age and never walked away.  Her life was spent giving generously and loving the same.  Her greatest joy was being a wife and mother.

Joyce was a gifted artist and loved to sing.  She was bold in the Reagan revolution and enjoyed political involvement. Her church was Brazos Covenant Ministries in Granbury, Texas.

She leaves a legacy of seven children: Rev. Merrie Cardin and husband Eddie, Dr. John Freeman, Mr. John Moore and wife Katy, Ms. Robin Moore Hardy, Dr. Thomas Moore and wife Ursula, Ms. Amy Moore Avery, and Mr. Roger Moore and numerous grandchildren and great-grandchildren.
