Helen Moore

Judy, Irene and Rick - I was so very sad to hear of the loss of your mom. She was one of the BEST managers I ever had or knew at Indiana Bell. She was always talking about you kids and about all the foster kids. All of you were a very important part of her life. She was always making us laugh and had a great sense of humor. Unit 8 was a great place and your mom helped make it that way.
One of the funny things I remember is when your mom answered the phone, Indiana Moore, Mrs. Bell speaking. She didn't miss a beat though.
She will certainly be missed.
With all my sympathy,
Pamm Butcher

Helen was a dear friend. We met 34 years ago when we both went back to work at Indiana Bell. She and I were in the same training class to be service reps. We shared many a laugh and some tears together over the years. She was someone that will always be in my heart. You will be missed dear friend.

Hello, Children of Helen Moore, Sorry to hear of her passing. We used to ride to Ma Bell together. I drove most of the time and Irene rode with also sometimes. After I retired in Dec. 1991, we lost track of each other. Will pray. Mel & Kay Loidolt.
