Bainbridge Post Searchlight, May 24, 1951
Funeral services were held Wednesday afternoon, May 23, at 3:30 o'clock from 
the residence of Mrs. D. G. McLellan for Miss Etta Missouri Moore who died in a 
local hospital on Tuesday morning.

Born in Decatur County on August 12, 1872, she was a daughter of the late Mrs. 
Callie Sutlive Moore and Mr. Green Berry Moore.  She joined the First Baptist 
Church here in 1887 and continued her membership here until her death.  For 
more that twenty-five years she taught a Sunday School class, giving it up 
because of ill health.  In recent years she has made her home with her sister, 
Mrs. Joe Renfroe, in Tallahassee and later in Havana.  Two years ago she 
returned to Bainbridge to live with her sisters, Mrs. D. G. McLellan.

Miss Etta was a fine Christian woman with a lovable personality and she always 
enjoyed a wide circle of friends who are grieved to learn of her death.

She is survived by two sisters, Mrs. D. G. McLellan of Bainbridge and Mrs. Joe 
Renfroe of Tallahassee.  She is also survived by a niece, Mrs. Russell Douglas 
of St. Petersburg, whom she reared and a number of other nieces and nephews.

The Reverend Lewis H. Wright and the Reverend H. H. Shell officiated at the 
funeral service and pallbearers were Emmett O. Horne, E. J. Willis, Milton 
Woodbury, Raleigh Rollins, H. B. Wynn, Marvin Golucke, R. E. Rowan, J. R. 
Deese, and A. P. Phillips.

Interment was made in Oak City Cemetery with E. W. Cox and Sons in charge.
