When I am coming to a stop (like at a stop light) and then when I am leaving the stop light it sounds like my rear drivers side brake is moaning (my wife said it saounds like a cow "mooing"). What could this be?

Have you removed the rear drum to check for broken return springs?

Make sure the caliper isn't sticking and the park brake (behind and part of the rotor) is properly adjusted.
