General Notes: Frances Loretta Moore is the eighth and final child of Noah and Ruth Moore. Loretta was born at Holmes County Community Hospital in Lexington, Mississippi. Loretta was the only child born in a hospital. The rest of her siblings were born at home.
Grades one through six were spent at Lexington Grammar School. Some of the fun things Loretta remembers during those six years were music classes where Mrs. Porter played the piano and belted out the lyrics to Shortin' Bread! She also enjoyed participating in the yearly operettas wearing the costumes her sister Edith made. If she had a nickel, she enjoyed treking across the street with friends to buy a banana BB Bat at Rhynes's Store. Another enjoyable memory as she got older were the weekend dances at the VFW hut with escorts Walter Eubanks or Danny Kaye Wynne. Not so fun activities remembered during her elementary years were missing the Easter egg hunt in first grade because she had the measles, being disciplined by Mrs. Earle with a ruler slap on the hand for chasing Nat Blaylock down the hall, and the many mornings and afternoons spent on the bus being aggravated by the Peacock boys.
Loretta attended Lexington High School in grades seven through twelve. On May 24, 1966, she graduated from LHS as salutatorian of her class. While at LHS Loretta was chosen Class Favorite in grades seven, nine, ten, eleven and twelve. She was president of the Quill and Scroll Honor Society and served as co-editor of the school newspaper, the Beacon. She was a pee-wee cheerleader in seventh grade. Loretta was treasurer of the Student Council, maid in the homecoming court in both her junior and senior years, and a beauty in the 1966 beauty pageant. From seventh grade through eleventh grade, Loretta took private piano lessons from Mrs. Porter. The Ben Franklin Store, Flowers' Department Store, and Simpson, Stepp & Lott Lumber Company provided part-time jobs for her spending money.
Loretta enrolled at Holmes Junior College, Goodman, Mississippi, in June 1966. She spent the next year (1966-67) and the summer of 1967 at HJC before transferring to Delta State College in Cleveland, Mississippi, as a junior that fall. She graduated June 1, 1969, with a bachelor of science degree in elementary education.
For the next seven years, Loretta lived in Ballwin, Missouri, and taught fifth grade at Valley Park Elementary School in Valley Park, Missouri. For three summers (1970-73) she attended the University of Alabama in Tuscaloosa, Alabama. The first summer she lived with her sister, Billie, in Jasper, Alabama, and carpooled down that dangerous curving Highway 69 to her classes each day. The second summer she and some friends lived in an apartment in Tuscaloosa to avoid that daily commute. The third summer she lived in the dorm. In August 1973 Loretta received her master of arts degree in educational psychology. She was certified as a reading specialist. From 1976-77 Loretta took some post-graduate courses at the University of St. Louis in St. Louis, Missouri.
Before her marriage to Jim Wilson at Ballwin Baptist Church in Ballwin, Missouri, Jim asked her if she wanted to continue teaching. Her reply was, I can stay single and work. But she did agree to teach one more year in order to save enough money for a down payment on their first home. Her eight year teaching career ended with the 1976-77 school year. She became a household technician and has continued in that capacity for the past twenty-six years.
Loretta became step-mom to Brad (five and one-half) and Jason (four) when she married Jim. They lived in Ballwin, Missouri, until June 1977 when they bought their first home in O'Fallon, Illinois, near Scott Air Force Base where Jim was stationed. Three years later a military assignment to Offutt AFB moved them to Omaha, Nebraska. Allison was born while they lived there. Three years later, in 1983, another move took them back to Scott Air Force Base in Belleville, Illinois. That year Sarah was born. After Jim retired from the Air Force in June 1986, he accepted a job in San Jose, California, and moved there. Loretta and the kids remained in Illinois until they sold the house twenty months later. They have lived in San Jose since February 1988.
As a teenager, Loretta traveled with Leo and Eloise over almost all of the United States. She also cruised the Bahamas, Puerto Rico, and the Virgin Islands with them. In 1997 she and her family flew to Hawaii to attend the wedding of their son Jason, and spent several days touring the island. In 2001 she flew to Savannah, Georgia, with several Girl Scout troops. One of the highlights of that trip was touring the birthplace of Girl Scout founder, Juliette Low.
Loretta's hobbies are crafts, walking, working with Girl Scouts, camping, and spending Jim's money. Jim says, I make it and Loretta spends it. Since his retirement, Loretta says there isn't as much to spend.
