Shirley Ann Moye

Shirley Ann Moye, 76, of Sour Lake, Texas passed away on May 19, 2026. She was born on July 16, 1949, to Mr. and Mrs. Clarence Eaton. She was a graduate of the Hardin-Jefferson Class of 1968.

Shirley was a devoted homemaker who took immense pride in her home and family. She lived in Sour Lake, Texas for many years and built a life centered around love, faith, and simple joys.

She was a faithful member of Praise Chapel, where she worshiped for many years and found strength, peace, and fellowship within her church family. Her faith in God was a guiding force throughout her life.

Shirley had a deep love for homemaking and especially enjoyed cooking and collecting vintage dinnerware, a hobby that reflected her appreciation for tradition, beauty, and family gatherings. She loved to bake and her cakes were always a treasure at church functions. Other hobbies included sewing and reading.

She is preceded in death by her beloved husband of 42 years, David Charles Moye, with whom she shared a lifetime of companionship and devotion. She is also preceded in death by her father, Clarence Ervin Eaton; mother, Dorothy May Shugart Eaton; sisters Carole Davis and Janelle Duvall; mother-in-law, Evie Moye; brother-in-law, Galen Moye; and sister-in-law, Grace Moye.

Those left to cherish her memory are numerous nieces and nephews and a host of friends.

We wish to thank Christie Frazier withCherished Years for her commitment to excellence of care.

Shirley, a precious soul who was loved by so many. Through her journey with Alzheimer’s, she remained a gentle and quiet spirit who loved the Lord with all her heart. Though her words became fewer over time, her sweet nature and kind presence always spoke volumes. The team at Cherished Years truly treated her like family. I am deeply grateful for the love, compassion, and dignity they showed her each and every day. Shirley was known for being a wonderful housewife and an excellent cook. She found joy in caring for others and lived a life marked by humility, faith, and quiet strength. While we mourn her passing, we rejoice in knowing she is now whole, healed, and at peace in the presence of her Savior.

Shirley, your love for Jesus and your commitment to faithfulness was so admirable. You were bold in spirit and taunted the enemy with your powerful prayers. You are reunited now with those you loved, especially our Savior. Well done! Well done!
