    Janette “Jan” Guerry Moore, 87, of West Columbia, SC, died on February 20, 2021 after a brief illness. Born August 11, 1933 in Charleston, South Carolina, she was a daughter of the late John Everett Guerry and Frances Cole Guerry. Mrs. Moore was the wife of 51 years to the late Matthew Singleton Moore, II. She was a devoted wife, mother, and a friend to many.

Mrs. Moore was a member of the Order of the Daughters of the King, St. Martins’ Chapter, and a member of the Huguenot Society of South Carolina. Mrs. Moore had a wide circle of longtime friends in all places where she has lived over the years, including many childhood friends with whom she grew up in Mount Pleasant, friends in Kilgore, Texas where she and the late Mr. Moore lived for many years, friends in Columbia, South Carolina where they lived after retirement and particularly at Still Hopes Retirement Community where she cherished friendships with many residents and staff members. She stayed in close touch with many friends until her passing. As a resident of Still Hopes Retirement Community she was a member of the Women’s Chorus, served a term on the Residents’ Council (Chair, Social Committee) was a frequent organizer of informal social gatherings and a Founding Member and past Chairwoman of the Five O’clock Club.
