Michael Moore Obituary

Michael K. Moore of San Diego, CA passed away peacefully surrounded by his family on September 10, 2022 after a battle with pancreatic cancer. He was 67 years old. Mike was born in Hartford, CT and grew up in Glastonbury until recently retiring to San Diego in 2019. Mike worked in communications for 41 years at SNET, SBC, and AT&T, eventually retiring from Frontier in December 2019. He was also co-owner of Premier Driving School, LLC in Glastonbury, with his wife Karen. Mike was a member of the East Glastonbury Fish and Game Club where he enjoyed new friendships, cooking for events, fishing and hunting. He also enjoyed trips to Alaska, vacations to the Caribbean, the outdoors, riding his motorcycles and spending time with his family. Mike was well known for his sense of humor and quick wit, was always ready with a joke or prank, and illuminated every room with smiles and laughter. He is survived by his wife Karen of 45 years, daughters Jennifer Moore, Shirey Moore Jamieson (Bruce) of San Diego, CA, twin sons Michael of Denver, CO and David of Eagle River, AK, and two awesome grandchildren, Torrey and Ryder Jamieson. He is survived by his three sisters and their spouses, Laura Gutt (Daniel) of Marlborough, CT, Susan Fuchs (Frank) of Windsor, CT, Jane DiMaggio (Michael) of Canterbury, NH, and his brother-in-law Bill McDermott of Glastonbury, CT as well as many nieces and nephews. He is also survived by his mother, June Moore of Glastonbury, CT and was predeceased by his father, David Shirey Moore. There will be no services. If you would like to honor Mike, he would like you to have a toast to life and enjoy it as much as he did.

It has been two years since Michael has passed. I find great comfort throughout each day when I pass his beautiful photo in my family room. The photo above is so Michael....the blue eyes, the smile, the hat and of course the perfect shade of blue shirt. During this past year I have been going through photos and cards from years back. It is bittersweet to come across so many photos knowing there will be no more new ones to add to the collection. The memories we shared in this lifetime continue to bring me smiles and laughter.... every now and then something happens and I think we all know that Mike, Michael, Pops is sending us an angel message from above. Until we meet again....give daddy a hug from me. Love you always,
Laura

Still think of Mike Moore daily especially when I am at work with his former co-worker Mike Gentile. Mike was a great person to work with and the love of his family was a priority. God continue to belle the family daily.

It has been a year since Michael has been gone. Every day reminders of the joy, love and humor still radiate within. There have been so many moments where I wanted to call him to ask a questions, share a moment or get some goofy text message. If only we could have one wish for one more day..one more hug..one more phone call. I feel his essence and I know he is watching over all of us. I find comfort that he is now goofing on my dad and with those that have passed before. Until we meet again. Always in my heart
Love you forever. Laura

Mike was a genuine good man just like his dad. I worked for Davey and with Michael. Mike was always positive in his every day chores at work. It was always a pleasure to be with him at work or outside of work. I feel blessed to have had him in my life. My condolences to all of his family and friends. Rest In Peace Mike!

So sorry to hear of Mikes passing. You will never know how much he was enjoyed by the Alaska group in all our trips there. Kodiak Island was the best with him. He was an excellent cook on all our trips, but most of all he was a wonderful person to know. He will be sorely missed. Deepest sympathy to the entire Moore Family.
