David Moxley Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers on Jun. 28, 2024.
David Moxley, 69, of Dobson, NC, passed away on June 26, 2024. Born on March 25, 1955, in Winston-Salem, NC, he was the son of the late John D. Moxley and Angie Moxley.

David graduated from North Forsyth High School in 1973 and later from Bob Jones University in 1978. He dedicated many years to serving as the Operations Director at the Winston-Salem Rescue Mission, where his commitment to helping others shone brightly.

An active member of Grace Bible Church, David was deeply involved in various church activities, reflecting his faith and community spirit. His hobbies included fishing, reading, enjoying music and movies, and watching sports, particularly cheering for the Braves and Carolina teams.

David was a beloved father, grandfather, and brother. He is survived by his children, Hannah and Joshua Poole, and their children Lila, Evan, Emma, and Asher; Aaron and Sarah Moxley, and their children Abraham, Charlie, and Theodore; and his sisters, Debbie (Rick Gfeller) and Diane (Mario Ramos).

A service to celebrate David's life will be held on July 11 at 5 PM at Grace Bible Church in Winston-Salem, NC. In lieu of flowers, contributions in David's memory can be made to the Winston-Salem Rescue Mission, honoring his legacy of compassion and support for the community.

David was a true asset to the Mission as he continued his father's vision for helping the least, the last and the lost. David was a true servant in his roles here at the WSRM for many years.

My first day on the job included riding around in a yellow box truck with David behind the wheel. Ray Gentry and myself were passengers as we were taking barrels to schools for the upcoming December Food drive. I will never forget before leaving that morning, Ray pointed to a handle in the truck and said hold on to this handle. Ray said, we call it the "hell handle" when you ride with David. You will see what I mean when he starts driving. Boy, did I ever. David ws the scariest person I have ever ridden with in my life. That handle was used very much on that day. Other than that challenging first day, all the other days and years working alongside David were a blessing. He always listened to your ideas and also showed genuine care for me and my family. David also cared for the people we served.

David served the longest as the Operations Director until he needed to go part time and serve as our Community Outreach Specialist. David served with care for many years even when he was sick. David never placed his needs above another person needing something. He showed me this quality many times and I know he did the same until he couldn't anymore.
