MOORE, GENE (PLUMMER) - Gene (Plummer) Moore died peacefully, with her daughters by her side, on January 15 at York Care Centre in Fredericton. Gene was born in Saint John October 7, 1911. Her parents were Greta (Finley) and Arthur Gordon Plummer. She is survived by her daughters Anita Hallyburton (Wayne), Sussex; Diana Moore (Brian Mitton), Fredericton; daughter-in-law Sally Moore; sister-in-law Joyce Smith (Rothesay); grandchildren Jennifer, Gavin, Alison (Andrew Robinson), Sarah, Martha, Anna and Elaine; great-grandsons Charlie and James; and many special nieces and nephews. She was pre-deceased by her husband, S. Lewis Moore, and her son Richard; her sisters Margaret, Ruth, Phyllis and Anita; and her brothers Arthur and David. Gene worked as a secretary until her marriage, after which she devoted herself to her family and homemaking. She was an exemplary hostess, cook, and Scrabble player whose credo was "If a job is worth doing, it is worth doing well". She died as she lived, with grace and determination. Her family would like to thank the staff of Dixon Lodge, York Care Centre for their kindness and attention during Gene's long residence there.
