Evelyn Moore (Sgt Mom) was a writer, mother of five, United States Marine ( '50 to '55), and friend to many. Her words fill readers with memories of her rich and colorful life, peppered with valuable (often comic) wisdom she acquired throughout the years, and an unwavering faith that remained strong her whole life. At age 83, Evelyn Moore was diagnosed with Alzheimer's. She wrote this book shortly after her diagnosis. She did not want her memories to be forgotten. Evelyn's hope was to help people find that the aging process is not to be feared. Her daughter (and caregiver), Mary Alice Moore, fulfills Evelyn's wish by publishing this book. A portion of the proceeds will go to The Semper Fi Fund. This is her daughter's way of giving back to the many military members who showed great support and love toward Sgt Mom during her last year of life. Alzheimer's could never take the Corps out of Sgt Mom. She leaned on her Marine training to fight her last battle. Evelyn Moore passed away July 26, 2014 at age 90.
