LAUREL - Ola Jennie Moore, of Laurel, passed away on Wednesday, Nov. 17, 2010, after a brief illness. She was born in Gumboro, the seventh daughter of a seventh daughter and one of fifteen children of the late Noah James Collins, Jr. and Della Myra Hadder Collins. Ola spent her early years working on the family farm and performing various jobs but for the last 62 years she had devoted her life to maintaining a home for her family. Ola was predeceased by her parents, all of her siblings and her husband, Chester, who passed in 1988. She is survived by her sons and their wives, Douglas and Bernice of Hardscrabble and Jim and Penny of Bridgeville, a very special friend, Lynda Ann Messick of Bridgeville, whom she regarded as her daughter and Lynda's children, Sammi Lynn Melvin of Milford and Will Messick of Bridgeville who Ola embraced as her grandchildren, and several cousins, nieces and nephews. Ola will be remembered for her caring ways, her positive approach to life and her contagious smile. She demonstrated her love of animals, nature, family and friends on a daily basis and set an outstanding example for all to emulate. A visitation was scheduled for 1 p.m., Sunday, Nov. 21, at Hannigan, Short, Disharoon Funeral Home, 700 West Street Laurel, with a funeral service following at 2 p.m. Interment was in Odd Fellows Cemetery in Laurel. Contributions can be made in Ola Moore's memory to Delaware Hospice 100 Patriots Way Milford, DE 19963. Condolences can be made to the Moore family by visiting, www.hsdfuneralhome.com.
