Marvel Ann Skaggs-Moss passed away peacefully at her home in Kerrville on May 23, 2024. Marvel was born on the Skaggs Ranch in Junction, TX to Marvin and Anna Skaggs on November 6, 1936.
Marvel graduated from Junction High School in 1954 where the Junction Eagle Band was her special interest. She attended Southwest Texas State Teachers College on a band Scholarship, however transferred to the University of Texas her sophomore year and graduated in 1960. Marvel moved to Kerrville and taught typing and shorthand at Tivy for 2 years.
In 1962, she met the love of her life, Bo Moss, who was a police Sergeant for the Kerrville Police Department and were married three months later. This marriage was blessed with two children, Marvin Walter (Dot) Moss and Anna Laura Moss. With her father’s passing in 1967, she inherited the ranch and she, Bo and their children continued to operate it as well as the family business.
Marvel's family was so precious to her. She loved being a huge part of her grandchildren’s lives; Ryan (Moss), Ashley (Mc Cormick), and Leeann (Broach) spent special time with their Gigi. Each grandchild held a very special place in her heart--some she cooked with, some she hunted with and some she loved to work puzzles with. Marvel also was able to enjoy being a great-grandmother to Emma and Nolan Moss and Beau Mc Cormick.
