Julia Lincoln Yost Moore

Julia Lincoln Yost Moore, 93, of Summerville peacefully passed on to meet her Lord on Tuesday, October 18, 2022. Family and friends are invited to her gathering at 11:00 and a memorial service at 12:00 noon on Saturday, Nov 5, 2022, at Summerville Baptist Church, 417 Central Ave, Summerville, SC. Julia was born May 30, 1929, the daughter of Arthur and Marian Lincoln in Naples, NY. She received an RN from Rochester General Hospital in 1950 and married Oliver Yost who finished school at Eastman School of Music. They started their family in Beaufort, NC, then to Louisville, KY, where Ollie attended the Baptist Seminary, then taught in the Music Dept at Wingate and Garden Webb. When the new Baptist College of Charleston opened (now Charleston Southern), they moved to Summerville, SC. Julia became the first nurse on campus (1966-79) administering medical attention and TLC to resident students while Ollie chaired the music department. When a missionary opportunity opened, her husband took a music position with the Foreign Mission Board at the seminary at Baguio, Philippines, a dream that they had for many years. When Ollie died, Julia went back to the Philippines teaching first aid and health at the seminary and working with churches to establish rural clinics and water missions in the midst of the Pinatubo volcano and earthquake (1979-96). After retirement, Julia married Bill Moore from her hometown, returning to Summerville. Charleston Southern recognized her with the Distinguished Service Award Dec 1996 for her service. She continued to care for her family and friends in her later years with joy and love. She will be greatly missed. The family has greatly appreciated her dear Filipina friend Alma for her loving care who worked with her in the Philippines and again in her last years. Julia is survived by her daughter Judith of Charleston, sons Stephen (Judy) of Seneca with 2 granddaughters (Natalie and Rachel) and 4 great grands; Oliver (Sarah) of Delaware with 2 grandchildren (Oliver and Zoe); 5 grandchildren (Ashley, Shelby, Justin, Ashleigh, Carlyn) and 5 great grands of Paul and Dianne (both deceased); and her sister Grace Hurne of Wisconsin. She was predeceased by her first husband Oliver Yost, her son Paul Yost, her second husband Willis Moore, her sisters Dorothy Lincoln and Laura Fox. In lieu of flowers, memorials may be made to International Mission Board (IMB .org – Give Now – IMB Generosity) for medical care for seminary students and for water missions.
