Maria Jane Moore, 39, of Pea Ridge, Arkansas died March 4, 2024.

She was born December 12, 1984 in Rogers, Arkansas to James Warren Jones and Flora Jane Cole. It is often said that a person's greatest achievement is how they leave the world a little better than they found it. For Maria, this wasn't just an achievement; it was her way of life. Her greatest accomplishment walk's among us, breath's the same air – her son, Liam. She embodied care, love, and compassion, qualities that didn't just make her an amazing mother but a remarkable human being. Maria had the unique ability to speak her mind, leaving you slightly uncomfortable yet profoundly loved all at once.

Maria's hobbies were diverse yet centered around her core – artistic creativity. Her love for the outdoors was not just for the sake of adventure but a backdrop for her artistic expressions. Whether through the lens of her camera capturing the undisturbed beauty of nature, her hands crafting stunning floral arrangements, or her brush strokes breathing life into a canvas – Maria taught us to appreciate life, love, and the beauty that lies in creating.

Her philosophy was simple yet profound – "I am who I am. Love me or hate me, just take me as I am." These words were a testament to her authenticity, a quality that made Maria the soul she was. And to Liam, her unwavering proclamation of love – "I love you to the moon and back" – was a beacon of her boundless affection.

Survivors are her father, James Jones of Garfield, Ar.; her mother, Flora Jane Cole Holley and husband Marty of Pea Ridge; a son, Liam Moore and Liam's dad Kyle Moore of Pea Ridge; paternal grandmother, Phyllis Gobbl of Garfield; siblings, James Jones of Rogers, Candance Young (John Jr.) of Centerton, Joshua Jones of Pea Ridge, Monique Holley of Bentonville, Shana Lane (Eric) of Ft. Worth, Texas, Skyler Holley (Delane) of Princeton, Texas, Elijah Holley of Troy, Missouri; and many extended family members and friends.

A celebration of life service is set for 6:00 p.m. Monday, March 11, 2024 at Sisco Funeral Home in Pea Ridge.
