Pharmaceuticals in Detroit. 
It was in Detroit that she met 
Morris and was married.
They started their family in 
Oak Park, later moving to West 
Bloomfield to raise two daugh-
ters and a son. She provided 
them with an awesome home, 
serving good food and incredi-
ble baked goods (“best Rugelach 
ever”). 
Her Dodge Dart, matching 
her consistent energy, got every-
one where they were supposed 
to be. She enjoyed mah jong 
with her friends, crosswords, 
jigsaw puzzles and gardening. 
A voracious reader, she loved to 
travel, taking car trips with the 
family, never failing to visit the 
out-of-the-way lighthouse or 
with her husband to travel the 
world, overcoming his impa-
tience and taking in every muse-
um she could. 
For her daughters, she 

instilled the lasting belief that 
“gender be damned; women can 
do everything men can and then 
some.” In her son she fostered a 
love for gardening that balanced 
the impatience he inherited 
from his old man. Her grand-
kids have been heard to say, 
“Grandma Edna is best; she’
s the 
most blunt and badass bubbie 
there is.”
 Mrs. Moore is survived by 
her sister and brother-in-law, 
Grace and Alfred Newman; her 
three children and their spous-
es, Lisa and Michael Kurek, 
Daniel and Natalie Moore, and 
Renee and Ken Womack; grand-
children, Max Kurek, Isabella 
Zuccarelli-Moore, Isaac Moore 
and Henry Womack. 
Those interested in making 
a contribution to her lasting 
memory may honor Sophia 
(Sophie) Kurek, her talented 
granddaughter, whose untimely 

death came in 2014. Information
