De’Borah Colleen Moore was born on September 8, 1974, to Robert Lewis Smith and the late Earline Donaldson Smith.
De’Borah was united in holy matrimony to Frederick Wayne Moore, Sr. in 1995 and through this union five children were born; DaLonte Dajuan Avery (John), Frederick W. Moore (Deyzha), ShaLonte S. Smith, Frejer M. Moore (Meha), and Fre’zier Montrell Moore.
De’Borah gave her life to Christ at an early age and continued to praise God and lift him up until he called her home. She was a very hard worker, when she did work, and she used to drive semi-trucks in the later years of her life. (she was indeed a jack of all trades) She would give a total stranger the clothes off her back and sing them a song if the spirit moved her to do so.
De’Borah loved everyone even if it wasn’t reciprocated. Our family was truly blessed to have had her in our lives; if only for 49 years and 4 months.
De’Borah was preceded in death by one son Fre’zier Montrell Moore, her beloved mother, Earline Donaldson-Smith, her grandparents, Lex and Earsie Donaldson, and Bob and Willie Lee Nelson.
She leaves to cherish her memory, her father, Robert Lewis Smith; two daughters, Da’Lonte Avery (John) of Jonesboro, Arkansas, and Shalonte S. Smith of Malden, Missouri; two sons, Frederick W. Moore (Deyzha) of Alpharetta, Georgia, and Frejer M. Moore (Meha) of Springfield, Missouri; two sisters, Shanreckia L. Walker (Lonnie) of Malden, Missouri, and Shaneka Floyd of Little Rock, Arkansas; four brothers, Robert Lucian Smith of Mt. Clemons, Michigan, Maurice Montrell Smith of Sellersburg, Indiana, Chris Moore of Sikeston, Missouri, and Eric Sherrod of Malden, Missouri; nineteen grandchildren; her fiance, Corey Pittman who was with her at the time of death (for this Corey, our family extends a huge thank you); two bonus children, Tristan L. Anderson (Trissy) and Cydney Pough; a god-daughter, Tina Howard; and a host of nieces, nephews, cousins, and friends.
