LAUREL - Evelyn Griffin Moore of Laurel, lovingly known as "Buttercup", passed from this life on Sunday, July 8, 2007, after a long illness, while surrounded by family. She was 88.

She was a member of the Disabled American Veterans Auxiliary and Centenary United Methodist Church for many years as well.
Many will remember Evelyn as a cashier/cafeteria employee at Laurel Junior/Senior High School between 1958 and 1971.
