Together, `We the People, in order to form a more Perfect Union,’ must coalesce around issues that affect Our Core Community Values. Hello, I am Murial Moore, known to My School Crossing Guard Community as Ms. M or Ms. Murial. My work background spans 40+ yrs in Accounting, Office Mgmt, HR/Benefits and Customer Service fields for profit and non-profit businesses. I have a duo-degree in Political Science and Communications. I attended a HBCU (Howard University), and graduated w/honors from Roosevelt University in Chicago, IL, which is where My siblings and I grew up. My Mother was a Public School Teacher and My Father was a Chicago Police Officer. Guess one could say, in My Senior years My genes have come full circle.
My late husband, 2- daughters and I moved to San Jose in the 70’s due to a job transfer. I worked, raised our daughters, sent them off to college, then off to Husbands/Marriage. As retirement approached (for My husband), We looked at the Active Adult Communities in Placer County. We moved into the Springfield Community of Rocklin in early 2001 and immediately joined in Community Activities via Passions and Skills we’d left on the Shelf.
My Passion has always been Children and Community Involvement. Within two months of moving to Rocklin, I was recruited to join CASA (Court Appointed Special Advocate) for kids and continued serving as an Advocate for nine (9) more Years.
As a Rocklin Volunteer Police Officer, I taught Child Safety in K-5 Schools, as part of their Stranger Danger Program and was the `Closer’ for Fingerprint ID at the City sponsored Family Events. Raising Placer grew out of a collaboration of PD Volunteers, the Volunteer Coordinator and licensed Social Workers to combat drugs and alcohol use amongst high-school students. I was part of that collaboration. And I helped to Draft the Anti-Bullying Digital Program for use in Rocklin Schools, K-8th grade.
While serving in these volunteer positions, I also worked at Lincoln HS as a Campus Monitor with Detention duties for two school cycles. Loved It. Got Great Stories to Share.
In 2008 My Husband was diagnosed with Alzheimer's. I became his Caregiver, 24/7. We fought the degenerative condition together, until his passing in 2015. I moved to West Roseville shortly after. In 2017, I became a PC Older Adult Advisory Commission Member (OAAC) and continue to serve to date.
From an early age We were taught to Love God, Protect Family and Value the Community via the Brotherly Love Creed of `Do unto Others, as You would have Others do unto You.’ That’s how I’m wired! As a Widow with two adult daughters and two adult 'Grands,’ who don’t reside nearby, my extended Family is the Community in which I live, work, volunteer and thrive in.
I work for the City of Roseville and a large Church in East Roseville as a Crossing Guard. I’ve often been called the Crossing Guard of Roseville. To that I say, `God puts You where You need to serve according to His Plan.’ I serve very diverse Immigrant and Religious sects of the Community within Dist. 5, the East side of Fiddyment Ave. Too often the Residents on the East side of Fiddyment Ave are marginalized and overlooked in the delivery of City Services and Projects. Too often I’m addressing the City Council re: Safety Issues that prevent or inhibit the Safety and Passage of People, Motorists and Crossing Guards from one side of the street to the other side. These Residents, often inhibited by language barriers, depend upon Me to advocate for the Services We deserve.
I became a CA licensed Life Agent a year ago because of the `What Ifs’ that Life deals Us, i.e, disasters, health and financial issues, when We’re not prepared. As a partner and Agent with FEG, I share the knowledge of having Protections against the `What Ifs.’
I’m a Candidate vying for Roseville City Council, Dist. 5 Seat because the current Councilperson’s term is ending. I am both Qualified and Equipped to Handle the challenges facing a fast-growing, expanding District.
My Campaign is based upon Safety, Seniors and Inclusion (SSI) with a focus on building an infrastructure with Businesses and City Services to sustain the fast growth of Families and Homes within the District, without overlooking the older parts of Dist. 5. So, if We want More, let’s Do More and VOTE MOORE for City Council.
Thank You.
