David Moser Obituary

David Glen Moser, "Dave", age 73, of Clayton, DE died on Saturday, November 5, 2016, at his home after a long courageous fight with bladder cancer.

Mr. Moser was born in Walla Walla, WA, January of 1943; he was the son of the late Glen Davis and Priscilla Mae (Murphy) Moser.

Having a father in the U.S. Air Force; Dave traveled the globe, living on several continents and experiencing many different cultures. He graduated from William Penn High School in 1961.

A lithographer by profession, he retired from Westvaco in Newark, a division of West Virginia Pulp & Paper, after 37 & ½ years of service. He had previously been employed with The Production Center, founded by his father, where he started his career.

Dave was an avid hunter and fisherman having told of his adventures throughout his life. He enjoyed working with his hands and tinkering around his home that he built 42 years ago. He enjoyed watching his deer from his garage doors and his walkabouts on his 50 acres of woods.

He is survived by his wife of 54 years, Patricia Ann (Davidson) Moser; three children, son, David Lee Moser of Clayton, daughter, Tina Marie (Allen T. Phelps, Jr.) of Smyrna and daughter, MaryJane May (Joshua F. Long) of Clayton; three grandchildren, David Christopher Scott Manganelli of Smyrna, and Aleck Anthony Robinson and Charlotte Lynn Long, both of Clayton; sister, Drucilla "Drue" Lee (Joseph A. Vari) of New Castle; nephew, Vincent J. Vari of Newark; and his beloved pet and companion, Dixie.

He was preceded in death by his loving parents, Glen and Priscilla Moser; and his niece, Veronica L. Vari.

A viewing will be held on Tuesday, November 15, 2016 from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. in the Faries Funeral Chapel, located at 29 S. Main St. in Smyrna. Funeral services will begin at 1 p.m. Burial will be private.

In lieu of flowers, the family is requesting memorial contributions to the Hartly Ambulance Services, PO Box 28, Hartly, DE 19953. The family also wishes to extend their gratitude to Louis, Tinley, Mark and Lisa from Compassionate Care Hospice for their support in his final days.
