She was born February 21, 1925 in Wilmore, Kentucky to Harvey Edgar Moody and Blanche Hagerdon Moody, as the fourth child of seven. After graduating from high school in Wilmore, Kentucky, Stella moved to Huntsville, Alabama, where she lived with her sister and worked at the PX on the nearby army base. There, she met Rushford Lee Sweeney, Jr., who was serving in the U.S. Army after graduating from Texas A&M. They married on February 26, 1944, shortly after Stella’s 19th birthday. In 1947, the young couple, now with first son, Rushford Lee III, moved to Rosita, Coahuila, Mexico, where husband R.L. worked as an engineer for ASARCO. In Rosita, their family grew to include two more sons, Clifton and Mark. In 1957, they relocated to Lake Jackson, where R.L. worked as a chemical engineer at Dow, and Stella was a busy wife, mother, and homemaker. After seventy years of marriage, husband R.L. passed away in 2014.
Stella was also a faithful and longtime member of Chapelwood Methodist Church in Lake Jackson. In her spare time, she enjoyed crabbing, playing cards, visiting with family and friends, and, in particular, golfing with other ladies at Riverside Country Club. She always enjoyed having company at her home and was a very special grandmother who eagerly planned fun activities to amuse her beloved grandchildren, who all affectionately called her “Memer,” a name of which she was quite proud.
Survivors include her three sons: Rushford Lee Sweeney III (Constance) of Ridley Park, Pennsylvania, Clifton Wade Sweeney (Isabel) of Antioch, California, and Mark Elliott Sweeney (Vicki) of Lake Jackson, and eight grandchildren: Wade Sweeney (Michele) of Marble Falls, Katie Sweeney-Cavaness (Jacques) of Lake Jackson, Kelly Anne Sweeney and Rushford Lee Sweeney IV of Ridley Park, Pennsylvania, Stephanie Sweeney and Todd Sweeney of Antioch, California, Jarrod E. Sweeney of Fort Worth, and Mara Sweeney Claeys (Adam) of Kuantan, Malaysia. She is also survived by three great-grandsons, Colton, Tysen, and Jacob; sister-in-law, Ella Moody of Corpus Christi; beloved nieces and nephews; and many special friends.
Stella was preceded in death by her parents and all siblings (Thelma, Harvey, George, Bud, Bill, L.B.); husband R.L. Sweeney; brothers-in-law, Billy Sweeney and Preston Lawrence; and sister-in-law, Thelma Sweeney Lawrence.
Family members will observe Stella’s passing in a private setting in May.
The family extends special thanks to the Elmcroft Staff, the A-Med Community Hospice, Rhonda Taylor and Chapelwood Methodist Staff, and granddaughter Katie, who greatly assisted her grandmother in many ways in her final years.
