Jeanne Camille Moomaw Adams, 79

Jeanne Camille Moomaw Adams, 79, passed away on Friday, Aug. 14, 2009, in Sandpoint, Idaho, free at last from the pain and suffering of pancreatic cancer.

She will be laid to rest in the Fairview Cemetery in Roanoke, Va., alongside her ancestors and youngest brother, Daniel Christian Moomaw.

A genteel southern lady, she was born on Jan. 10, 1930, in Roanoke, Va., the eldest child of the late Dr. and Mrs. Benjamin Crumpacker Moomaw.

Her brother residing in Port MacQuarie, Australia, Dr. Benjamin Clovis Moomaw grieves the loss of his beloved sister.

Her dutiful children Pamela Jeanne Adams and Nancy Adams Felando of Sandpoint, and James Moomaw Adams of Houston, Texas, will carry her memory in their hearts with undying love and devotion forever.

Five grandchildren, Noah, Molly, and Will Fisher of Santa Fe, NM, Stevi Jo Maytubby of Las Cruces, NM, Dawson Adams of Houston, and a great grandson Rodion Jacques of Santa Fe, N.M., will miss their “Greenie.”

Besides her family she was passionate about education, art appreciation, literature, and music, being an accomplished vocalist and pianist.

As a cat fancier and animal lover she requests donations be made to Panhandle Animal Shelter, 870 Kootenai Cutoff Road, Ponderay, ID 83852

As she travels forth she leaves us with a favored quote by Albert Camus, “Don’t walk behind me; I may not lead.  Don’t walk in front of me; I may not follow.  Just walk beside me and be my friend.” 

Lakeview Funeral Home in Sandpoint is handling the arrangements.
