Mr. Speaker, today, I rise to honor Dorothy Williams Moore on the occasion of her 100th birthday. Dorothy was born in Hamptonville, North Carolina. She graduated from Catawba College, class of 1942, majoring in home economics. On March 20, 1946, she married Thomas Moore and moved to Charlotte. Dorothy and Thomas had four children: Luther, Louanna, Neil, and Cynthia. Dorothy has proudly served as a mother, homemaker, and substitute teacher. She also taught Sunday school. Thomas passed away in 1986, after nearly 40 years of marriage. Dorothy still lives in Charlotte. She has five grandchildren and eight great-grandchildren. A double cancer survivor, she loves music and sang in her church's choir until the onset of COVID-19. She also enjoys sweets, especially chocolate ice cream. It is an honor to pay tribute to Dorothy on her 100th birthday. She has led an amazing life, and her family is overjoyed to celebrate with her. ____________________
