Charles Moore Sr.

MOORE
On the evening of August 15, 2009, Retired MSGT Charles William Moore, Sr. (Charlie) gathered up the playing cards, neatly stacking them for the next game, tallied up the points, rose from his bed and started his journey to eternal happiness with the Lord. When he reached his final destination, he turned back to look at those he left behind, standing erect, heals touching and feet at a forty-five degree angle, his left elbow locked and arm extended down with his thumb neatly touching the pant seam. He then crisply rendered a hand salute with his right hand. Charlie may have lost his battle with cancer; but let it be known that he was a winner in the game of life. His memory will remain in the hearts and the minds of his loving wife of fifty-seven years, Nickie, and his sister Emma Quimby; children created by love: Charles Moore, Jr. and wife Deborah, Lauren Moos and husband John, Rebecca Derby and husband Brian, James Moore and wife Joy; children chosen through love: Richard and Cynthia Page, Joseph duMenil, Missy Van Hecke; grandchildren: Bonnie Peyton, Jeremy Morales, Kristie Benavidez, Ashley Moos, Jennifer duMenil, Jacob Derby, Jayci Derby, Joseph Moore, Brendon Moore, Brady Moore, James Weaver, Alan Russell, Lori Russell, Valerie Kewley, Nathan Young; great grandchildren: Kyra Peyton, Blaec William Peyton, Anna Morales, and his loving pets, Pebbles and Zorro.
