Mrs. Ruby Genece Moore Rook of Ackerman passed on to be with her Lord and Savior on Tuesday December 15, 2015 at the age of 83 at the Choctaw County Nursing Center in Ackerman, MS after a lengthy illness.
Survivors include daughters Bobbie Maness(Dale) and Sarah Adams (Billy) both of Ackerman. Step-sons, Reverend Charles Rook (Doris) of Louisville and James Rook of South Mississippi. Sister Susie Barker (James Lee) of Brandon. Brother William Moore (Jo) of Weir, eleven grandchildren and fourteen great-grandchildren. She is also survived by numerous extended family and friends as well, especially Lynda McKinney (Wayne), Merle Gammill who visited often and with whom mom enjoyed having close, and two sister-in-laws, Marilynn Moore and Sandra Moore.
Preceding her in obtaining eternal life was her spouse of 28 years, William Grady Rook, parents Oliver and Ola Moore, sister Gertrude Shultz, and brothers Curtis Moore and Bennett Moore.
Mom loved to work in her flower garden and did so up until her physical health would not let her earlier this year. In the past year she had also developed a love for reading. She was always there for her family and did what she thought would help us when needed, often without being asked. She had also volunteered at the food pantry until her physical health declined.
Services for Mrs. Moore will be held at a later date and time pending a future announcement to be made by the family. Coleman Funeral Home of Ackerman, MS is in charge of all local arrangements.
