She is reunited in eternal peace with her beloved husband of 60 years, Dioscoro B. Quilaton Sr., with whom she shared countless cherished moments.

••• Marjoire Anne Moeller 1944-2024 Marjorie Ann Moeller, mother, grandmother, and friend, passed on April 17, 2024, unexpectedly at the age of 80 from an aneurism. Margie was born on January 30, 1944, in South Gate, California, to Adelaide French of Minnesota and Lt.Col. Thomas H. Mills of Montana who are both buried in Arlington Cemetery. Growing up in a military family, Margie had an adventurous upbringing in South Africa and Virginia with her late brothers, Mark and Danny, that sparked her imagination and love of travel. She married the late Robert Moeller of San Antonio, Texas, a respected federal marshal, in 1967. They lived in the Los Angeles area and Virginia while raising their two sons, Jeffrey and Bear. Margie retired from the aerospace industry and lived in Leisure World for 30 years. She shared more than 22 years with the late James Throgmorton, a retired aerospace engineer and beloved Leisure World musician and dancer. There are some people who live life so large it seems impossible they are gone. Margie’s daily activities seemed to defy the laws of time. She loved travelling, dancing, music, crochet, painting and spending time with her family. Margie was the kindest, most selfless, and loving soul. She gave all of herself every day to family, friends, and strangers alike, and we are bereaved by her passing. Margie is survived by her two sons, six grandchildren, one great granddaughter, and Ronna and Jamie Throgmorton. Join us for a celebration of a life on Monday, May 20, 11 a.m.2 p.m. in Clubhouse 4, 1419 Northwood Road, Seal Beach.

In Memoriam Geraldine Kyle ….


In Memoriam Geraldine Kyle McWeeney Geraldine Kyle McWeeney, age 76, of Derry, Ireland, passed away on April 21, 2024, with her husband by her side. Her rebellious, loving, generous, and ridiculously funny nature will be missed by many. Geraldine is survived by Tony, her husband of 55 years, her eldest son, Gerry, and daughter Maureen (Steve). She also leaves behind her most beloved grandchildren: Claire, Grace, Dillon, Conor, Emily, Sarah, and Abby. In addition, she is survived by her siblings, Terence (Shirley), Brian (Sally) and Kathleen (Mike), and many cherished nieces and nephews including Kerry, Robert, Colm, Megan, Sean, Sarah, Stephen, Brian, Suzanne and Fiona. Geraldine had the good fortune of having lifelong friends who loved her dearly and whom she adored and cherished. The McWeeney family wishes to thank the many family and friends who called and visited her, and expressed their love to her before her passing. She is now reunited with her son, Anthony, parents Gerry and Celine Kyle, and sister Ann. She will be buried in her home country of Ireland with her son, Anthony. Geraldine opened the Seal Beach Drive-In Dairy with her husband before embarking on a successful career as a Realtor and property manager. Geraldine and Tony raised their family in Costa Mesa, and upon retirement moved to Mexico, followed by adventures in Northern California where they spent time with grandkids while reconnecting with a vibrant Irish community in Petaluma. However, Seal Beach drew them back, and their time in Leisure World was an opportunity to reconnect with lifelong friends, and loving family including many cousins who brought joy and laughter to their lives. A Celebration of Life will be held in late summer at St. Anne’s Church in Seal Beach, where she and her husband exchanged vows 55 years ago.

••• Barbara Birdie O’Brien Bell 1927-2024 Barbara Birdie O’Brien Bell, beloved sister, mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, great-greatgrandmother, and great-great-great-grandmother, passed away in the presence of family and in the comfort of her home on Feb. 17, 2024. Barbara worked as an accountant much of her adult life, but where she found her most joy was in her hobbies and her volunteer work, and especially as the matriarch of a family that grew to more than 40 strong. The second of four children, Barbara was born on July 30, 1927, in Great Falls, Montana, to Robert Emmett O’Brien and Birdie Jones. After staying in Montana with her older sister Pat and their father during the Great Depression, Barbara moved with Pat to Maywood, California, to live with their mother, stepfather, younger sister Dorothy and baby brother Victor. The draw of the Midwest— and her close connection with her best friend Nicky—saw Barbara move to Oklahoma for her high school years. After graduating, Barbara moved back to Maywood to begin her career and never left the state. (Though she did join Nicky in Oklahoma for their 50th high school reunion!) Shortly after returning to California, Barbara met Glenn Alan Moe, whom she married. They had three children, Don, Kathryn and Cheryl. Barbara remarried in 1963 to Bob Bell, with whom she had a daughter, Dianne. Bob and Barbara lived in Whittier much of their lives— becoming quite the formidable duo on SoCal bowling lanes— before moving to Leisure World in Seal Beach in 2003, where they lived together until Bob’s passing in 2015. Barbara remained in their Leisure World home, often volunteering at the book store, until her passing. Barbara is survived by her sister Dorothy, her four children and three stepchildren, and dozens and dozens of descendants. She may be gone but her legacy will live on for generations.
