Elleatha Moore

Ellleatha Laverne “Brown” Moore, 59 of Salisbury (formerly of Millsboro) entered eternal rest on Thursday, June 3, 2021, at Seasons Hospice in Newark, Delaware. She was born December 20, 1961, to Barbara Maker Brown Testamark and the late Elliott Brown in Elkton, Maryland.

Elleatha spent most of her years being raised in Sussex County, Delaware. She attended Cape Henlopen High School. During her high school years, she met many friends and was always the party-starter. Later in life, she returned to Sussex Tech to receive a certificate as a Certified Medical Technician. Elleatha loved to cook. She would burn a mean dish for her family, and anyone else who needed to eat. Her dressing was not far behind her cooking. She would dress to impress whenever she felt like it. She was a jazzy dresser. Even when going to the hospital, she wanted her daughters to dress her in the new outfits she just purchased. Needless to say, Yasmine tried to talk her out of dressing like that. Elleatha received her Christian training at Emmanuel House of Prayer. The love she expressed could be seen in her gardening abilities. Above all she loved her grandchildren. Elleatha loved telling jokes and would talk trash if provoked. She had a heart of gold and would help anyone when needed. Elleatha loved shopping and hanging with her special friends, Mrs. Wynn.

In addition to her mother, Barbara (Truman) Testamark, Elleatha leaves to cherish fond memories with her four children: Ja’Net Samuel (Shannon, Sr.), Terron, Yasmine, and Darnell Brown; 2 sisters: Patricia Perry and Ellen Siler (Jerry); best friends/sisters: Duralene Preston and Sharon Waters; 8 grandchildren: Monique Samuel, Shannon Samuel, Jr., Isaiah Samuel, Ja’Nece Samuel, David Snell, Jasiah Collins, Orion Gibbs, and Linnea Brown; 2 nieces: DeseDee Perry and Keyana Siler; 3 nephews: Timothy Perry, Lucas Perry, and Stephon Sller; one aunt, Ruth Sewell and Aunt Debbie; an uncle, Ernest Brown, and a host of cousins, other relatives and friends.

Elleatha was preceded in death by her father, Elliott Brown; her maternal grandmother, Louise Maker; grandfather, Harry Cole, and a sister, Ellana Brown.
