David C. Moore

FUQUAY-VARINA, NC – David C. Moore, 78, passed away at his home on Thursday. A native of Caldwell County, NC, he was the son of the late Carroll Moore and Ellen Rader Moore. Since he was a teenager, David loved the same woman, and after raising a strong, loving family, they built “A Little Solitude” with a vegetable and flower garden, fruit orchard, red barn, and cows. He was a loving PaPa, who loved nothing more than aggravating his grandkids. He was loyal – to family, NCSU sports (and especially Wolfpack Football), and CP&L/Progress Energy, where he worked for over 40 years. He will be missed dearly by all who knew him. A graveside service will be held on Sunday, September 26th at 2:00 PM at Rawls Baptist Church Cemetery, Fuquay-Varina, NC. The family will receive friends immediately after the service. David is survived by his wife of 58 years, Elizabeth H. Moore of the home; daughters, Terry Hopkins (Joey) of Garner, Sonya Bird of Knightdale, Carolyn Brinson (Greg) of Edenton, Pam Poole (Jay) of Clayton; son-in-law, Vic Bird of Cary; grandchildren, Thomas Bird (Jillian Ferns), Morgan Bird, Jacob Brinson (Stefenie), Grace Herman (Josh), Rebecca Ward (Caleb), Rachel Brinson, Kelly Hopkins, Billy Hopkins, Preston Poole, Peyton Poole; great-granddaughter, Leah Bird. The family of Mr. Moore would like to extend their heartfelt appreciation to Transitions LifeCare, Kindred at Home, and Dr. Mazen Hamad for their care and support. In lieu of flowers, memorials may be made in David’s memory to Rawls Baptist Church (10665 US 401, Fuquay-Varina, NC 27526) and Samaritan’s Purse (www.samaritanspurse.org).
