Mitzi Moore Tulloss

ROCKY MOUNT – Mitzi Moore Tulloss, age 76, passed away peacefully on Tuesday, March 7, 2023. A life-long Rocky Mount resident, she was born in Nash County, NC on November 9, 1946, to the late Albert Theodore Moore and Margaret Davis Moore.

Mitzi was a longtime member of First Baptist Church and a teaching leader with Bible Study Fellowship. She loved getting to know people, talking with everyone, and most of all, loved to laugh. Mitzi’s favorite flowers were the blossoms of a magnolia tree, and when she found a perfect bloom, she was known to enlist the help of her daughter and her daughter’s friends to cut them.

Mitzi is survived by her husband of 54 years, Fred Tulloss, her daughter, Sarah Margaret Tulloss of New York, NY; and her sister, Jo Ann Mangum.

A Celebration of Mitzi’s Life will be held on Friday, March 10, 2023, at 12:00 PM at First Baptist Church, 200 South Church Street, Rocky Mount, NC 27804 with Rev. Bill Grisham officiating. The family will receive friends and relatives on Thursday, March 9, 2023, from 7:00 PM to 8:30 PM at Wheeler & Woodlief Funeral Home.

A Private Family Burial will take place at Pineview Cemetery.
