Charles Moulden Obituary
Shrewsbury - Charles Carroll Moulden, 75, of Shrewsbury, PA, born on April 24, 1945, in Baltimore Md. to his late parents Henry and Marion Moulden, and brother Henry "Hank". Married to his wife, Marion for 54 years, passed from this earth on July 17, 2020.

He was known to his friends as family as a generous, fun-loving, and avid sportsman. He began his sports career in baseball with the Baltimore Orioles minor league system from 1965 to 1971. In 1971 after baseball, he worked at Bethlehem Steel Shipyard in Sparrows Point Md, and then soon retired and enjoyed being "Pop" to his two grandchildren, playing golf and spending time with his family.

Carroll was my best childhood friend. I was searching the internet with the idea of reconnecting, when I saw the very sad news that he had passed away. When I was 3 years old, we moved to Sinclair Lane. Carroll lived on Cliftwood Ave. The backs of our houses faced one another across a small alley. We were just a few months apart in age, and at a very early age we became good friends. Growing up, Carroll was so gifted athletically that by comparison I often felt like the least athletic kid in Baltimore. However, Carroll was a genuinely nice boy and was very modest about his athletic gifts. When Carroll was around 8, his family moved to a house across from Herring Run Park. We still remained friends and I would sometimes stay overnight at his house. His Mom was always very welcoming and kind to me. At age 11, I moved to a new house, and Carroll would often visit. I loved showing off his athletic prowess to the neighborhood boys. I was very proud of him. At age 13, Carroll and I played on the same baseball team in Herring Run Park. He had developed a very effective curve ball, and most batters at that age had little experience with curves. I played centerfield and I could see him throw the ball at the batter’s shoulder, but it would make a big arc to end in the strike zone. Many batters would actually back-up, thinking the ball was going to hit them. At age 15, I briefly played on a team with Carroll. Ron Swaboda was also on that team. I quickly realized that it was time for me to retire because the caliber of play was way over my level. As Carroll got more involved in serious baseball, we drifted apart, but in the newspaper, I followed Carroll’s high school career with great pride. Around age 20 to 22, Carroll came to visit me when I was home from College. I think Carroll was married and was playing in the minor leagues. He was very proud of me for having done so well in school and getting close to graduating from college. That meant so much to me! Soon after that, I left for graduate school in California, and I only came back east to visit my family. As you get older you think back over your life and the people who were most important to you, and Carroll was certainly one of the most important people in my life. I am sorry I didn’t get to reconnect with him, but a part of him will always be with me. My sincere condolences to Carroll’s wife, children, and grandchildren. We were all very lucky to have this wonderful man in our lives.

Moe was a friend of the Winfree family and we remember him fondly. He was a character with a very hearty laugh and enjoy shooting golf with my Dad and a few beers afterwards. He also played Cribbage with my Dad as well. He was always hardworking and focused on his family and his home in Shrewsbury. He loved the Orioles and always had the game on in his home. He is in a better place and hope he is catching the back 9 with my Dad. Prayers and condolences to the family.
