Read More	Elloise Moyle died on Sunday, October 18, 2020, surrounded by her family at her home in Hopkins, Minnesota. Florence Elloise Barton Moyle was born to JF and Marie (McElwee) Barton on the family farm southwest of Mt. Pleasant, Iowa, on October 27, 1923. Although her first name was Florence, all her life she went by Elloise. Growing up on the farm, she helped with the chores and learned to cook from her mother. She went to a one room country school that she walked to (uphill both ways), or occasionally caught a ride on the neighbor's horse, Diamond. While attending Mt. Pleasant High School, Elloise had a job as a live-in housekeeper for Nina Ward, in town. During this time she met the love of her life, Richard Moyle. After dating for two years they were married on September 6, 1942. The young couple started their adventure together by moving to Seattle, but they moved back to Mt. Pleasant prior to the birth of their first daughter, Linda Lou, in December, 1943. In 1956, Richard got a new job, so the three of them packed up and moved to a beautiful little neighborhood on Leonard Street in LaCrosse, Wisconsin, that they would call home for the next 35 years. Here they added, what Elloise called, a "surprise" to the family, Lori Lea. The family lived in a close neighborhood where all the kids called everyone's mom, "mom" -- and Elloise was no different. Elloise was a stay-at-home wife and mother, who handled all the daily challenges while her husband was out on the road driving a semi-truck. She not only took care of the household but also ran a ceramic shop in their basement with Linda for over 25 years. (Linda had special needs and lived with them all her life). In 1990, they moved back to Mt. Pleasant to retire. One of her special joys was her one and only grandson, Nathan. Growing up Nate spent his summers at his Grandma's house and they built a very special bond that grew over the years. The thing she loved more than anything else was taking care of the ones she loved like her daughters, her mother, her husband, and even her grandson (or even her precious Peanut, the cat). Elloise and Linda moved to Minnesota to be with Lori, John, and Nate. At 96, Elloise would daily drive to the nursing home where Linda was for lunch until COVID hit and the home was shut down. Her daughter Linda passed away from the disease in May of 2020 and her heart was broken. Elloise was survived by her daughter Lori (John) Schlatter of Hopkins, Minnesota, and her grandson, Nathan, also of Hopkins; her brother, Wesley (Gerry) Barton of Mt. Pleasant; and many nieces and nephews. She was preceded in death by her parents; an infant son, Richard Dale; her daughter, Linda; and her sister Wanda Wesely. Her funeral was held on October 23, 2020, with burial in the Forest Home Cemetery.
