Moore, Margaret Mary "Peggy"
Jan. 3, 1920 - May 9, 2013
Margaret Mary Moore - Peggy to her family and friends - was born on January 3, 1920- to Bernard and Nora (nee O'Brien) Moore, in Berlin, Connecticut. The middle child of three, she had an older brother, John and a younger brother, Bill, both of whom predeceased her.
After losing their mother at a very young age, Peggy and her brothers spent a number of years in school, in Watertown, New York, before returning to Kensington to attend high school when their father remarried. Peggy graduated from Berlin High School and then from Central Connecticut Teachers' College, where she had studied for a career as an elementary teacher. She took a job in the Warehouse Point, Connecticut, school system, teaching 2nd grade for several years. In 1955, a recruiter from the Department of Defense schools came to Warehouse Point and convinced Peggy to join up. She boarded an ocean liner for France, beginning what was to become a life filled with travel and excitement. Her long career as a 2nd grade teacher in the DOD system included postings to Paris, France; Munich, Germany where she lived for 15 years: Madrid, Spain; Woodbridge, England and Cuba. She retired in 1992 from her last posting, in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, and moved to Sarasota, Florida. A lifelong devout Catholic, Peggy joined St. Thomas More, shortly after she settled in Sarasota. She attended regularly and traveled to different places with church groups. In retirement, she volunteered  at the Sarasota Food Bank for several years.
