~~~My Great-Grandmother~~~
Dorothy Jean Marsh was born January 21, 1934 to John Charles Marsh and Lillie Edith Loghry.
It is very difficult to describe Granny Moser. The way she told stories made you feel like you were right there.
I did recall her saying that her Aunt Ruby Marsh had picked the name Dorothea for her, but there was a mess up on the birth certificate and she was just named Dorothy.
Whenever she meet my Great Grandpa Rol, he had asked her if she wanted to go "Honky Tonkin" and she said, "I don't do that!"
They went to the movies instead.
She had come to Kansas from Arkansas to help her sister, Marjorie, with her third pregnancy and she ended up staying.
I know that she was very close with her oldest sister, Billie Lou, and whenever she came down to Arkansas for Billie Lou's funeral, she had said, "This is the last trip I'll be making down here to Arkansas"
That was sad for me since I lived in Arkansas, but we would still go and see her in the summers.
One day on her way to school, she was walking with her cousins and she had heard something in a ditch by the road...there was a snake! One of her cousins stabbed it with a stick and they went on to school.
Sometime when the mail man came through, he went into her parent's house saying there was a dead snake! A diamond backed rattler!
When they got home, their parents told them to be careful! "Someone has killed a snake!" They said "We know! We did!"
She said in her young age she went tubing at night in the Illinois River near Watts, Oklahoma.
When she was little, she used to pick blueberries and strawberries on her parent's farm.
These are some of the special stories my Granny Moser would share.
She leaves behind two daughters (LaVerna Jean Myers and Connie Sue Tennis) and two sons (John Charles Moser and Roland Dean Moser), eight grandchildren, and seven great-grandchildren.
She had married Roland Moser on February 28, 1954 in Clayton, New Mexico.
She passed away February 13, 2012 at her residence in Hugoton, KS.
