Moore, Dorothy M., age 83 of Moraine, passed away on Saturday, October 22, 2016. She was born on June 4, 1933 in Dayton, the daughter of the late Ellsworth & Almeda (Brenner) Harris. Dorothy loved being a homemaker and babysitter for years and later retired from Meijer. Preceded in death by her husband James Moore, a sister Margaret Willis and a sister in law, Helen Davis. She is survived by her daughter, Mitzi McIntosh (Bob), her son Michael Moore (Angela), 4 grandchildren, Julie Southard (Mike), Sara LeRoux (Corey), Andrew Moore & Hannah Moore, 3 great grandchildren, Kaitlin Dorothy Southard, Isabelle LeRoux, Haley Dodd, 3 sisters, Jean Spreher, Barbara Williams, Lela Sievers (Howard), 2 brothers, Ellsworth Harris, Jr., (Lynn), Russell Harris (Sue), 3 brothers in law, Robert Moore (Betty), Kenneth Moore, Loyd Moore (Linda) and a host of nieces, nephews and friends.
She loved spending time with her family and her cat Freckles. She enjoyed crossword puzzles, Wheel of Fortune, the Cincinnati Reds and reading the Dayton Daily News everyday. Most recently she enjoyed watching the hummingbirds on her front porch. Many special memories were made with her family especially showing her love for her grandchildren and great granddaughters. Before the first grandchild, she selected to be called "Granny Dot" and most of her grandchildren and their friends still address her as that. She volunteered for three generations at Moraine Meadows Elementary School as a homeroom mother. She shared her love of baking (well known for her chocolate chip cookies and gingersnaps), plastic canvas, embroidery, sewing and crafts with others. Her unique sense of humor brought laughter and smiles to those who knew her. She was loved by all and will never be forgotten.
