- Flora Shaw Moore Dunigan, age 100, of Tollesboro, Kentucky, went to be with her heavenly Father on Monday, November 24, 2014, at Hospice of Hope at Kenton Pointe, in Maysville, Kentucky. She was born June 12, 1914, in Lewis County, Kentucky, a daughter of the late Charles and Sarah Moveta Kegley Shaw. Flora was a life-long resident of Lewis County and attended the Shepherds Chapel Church and Galilee Christian Church for many years. She was a loving wife and mother. Flora was well known for her Sunday dinners, as many residents in Lewis County had the wonderful opportunity to sit at her table as she gladly served them a warm, home-cooked meal. Flora loved her family, friends and church.
She loved raising a garden and sharing the harvest with friends and family. Even with failing health issues, with the help of her daughter, Linda, and granddaughter, Malena, they were able to can many fruits and vegetables for the winter. Flora enjoyed reading her Bible. In her spare time on long winter days, she enjoyed keeping her mind sharp by working her Bible word puzzles and quilting. Flora also thoroughly enjoyed a good game of dominos with her family.
In addition to her parents, she was preceded in death by: her first husband of 44 years, Hubert Moore, who passed away on January 16, 1978; her second husband of two years, Sam Dunigan, who passed away on December of 1990; one grandson, Daron Joe Ruggles; two sisters, Edith Jackson and Nellie Sexton; one brother, Ora Shaw; and three half-brothers, Albert, Ernest, and Elmer Hyrne. Flora is survived by: four daughters and three sons-in-law, Thelma and Aubrey Ruggles, Linda Moore, and Brenda and Douglas Toller, all of Tollesboro, and Shirley and Richard Colley, of Blue Creek, Ohio; six grandchildren; six step-grandchildren; four great-grandchildren; four great-great-grandchildren; one brother, Alva Shaw, of Maysville, Kentucky; one sister-in-law, Wilma Shaw, of Elyria, Ohio; and many other family members and friends who will sadly miss her.
