William Moseley Obituary

Published by Richmond Times-Dispatch on Feb. 8, 2009.
MOSELEY, William A., 79, of Richmond, went to be with his Lord on Saturday, February 7, 2009. He leaves to cherish his memory his wife of 56 years, Eunice Moseley; two daughters, Susan Davis and her husband, Russell, Brenda Snow and her husband, Lonnie; four grandchildren, Holly Disney and her husband, Todd, Kristen Davis, Bryan and Mark Snow; two brothers, Frank Moseley and his wife, Dorothy, Lewis Moseley and his wife, Su; two sisters, Grace Armstrong and Lucille Short. Mr. Moseley served his country as an Army veteran in the Korean War. He was a faithful servant of Staples Mill Road Baptist Church, and served in many capacities. He was a man of many talents whose handywork was spread far and wide. He spent much of his life doing custom woodwork and cabinetry. He also ran his own business for over 30 years. His generosity and kindness knew no bounds. He was full of life, and his humorous nature made him a friend to all and an enemy to none. The family will receive friends Monday, 6 to 8 p.m., at Bliley's-Staples Mill, 8510 Staples Mill Rd. A funeral service will be held Tuesday, 1 p.m., at Staples Mill Road Baptist Church, 10101 Staples Mill Rd. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the Staples Mill Road Baptist Church Building Fund.

I will miss Mr. Moseley! I was one of the neighborhood/church kids who enjoyed the Moseley's hospitality and grew up with Susan and Brenda. His "get-the-job-done" attitude in helping his church, family and friends with projects was invaluable. He took such good care of his family, and still had time to care for others. I will miss his wry sense of humor, his handshakes and hugs, his honest opinions, his beautiful wood-work!, his smile ...so much more...simply his presence. Even though I am not family, he and Eunice were a little part of many special times in my life, and they were Hannah's first SS teachers. Allen and I love you all - and will continue to keep you in our thoughts and prayers.

Uncle Bill, I'm going to miss your smiles and your big handshake that always turned into a hug. This world is worse off for your leaving but we know you'll be getting Heaven into fine shape for our arrival. God bless you and your family.
