Thomas Moore Sr. (known by family and friends as Peter), died on November 20, 2021 at the age of 86 after a battle with illness. Thomas passed away peacefully in his residence at Whitesburg Gardens in Huntsville, Alabama.
He was born on June 3, 1935 to parents, Adolphus and Willie Moore in Ellaville, Georgia. Both parents preceded him in death. Thomas was the sixth child of seven siblings; Marian Stewart, Philip Moore, Excare Moore, Leamon Moore Sr., Johnson Moore, and Geraldine Butler, all of whom are deceased. Thomas was married to the late, Annie Jo Prince-Moore who also preceded him in death.
Thomas is survived by his three children, Thomas Moore Jr. of Beacon, NY, Sherri Lindo of Huntsville, AL, Emie Williams of Americus, GA; two sons-in-law, Clinton Lindo II, Bruce Williams Jr.; eight grandchildren, Thomas Darnell Moore, Brittany Moore, Temidayo Are’, Onitayo Are’, Clinton Lindo III, Bruce Williams III, LaiAni Williams, Tia’Leyon Williams; one great-grandchild, Tylon Barbours; friend and former spouse, Doris Moore; and a host of nieces, nephews, and cousins.
Thomas worked as a truck driver for many years until he started his own lawn service business and worked independent jobs. He last worked as a custodian for the First SDA Towers in Huntsville, AL until his health forced him to retire at the age of 82. He was determined to keep moving and at the age of 84, he completed a 5K charitable race to help feed the hungry. He was a member of the First Seventh-Day Adventist Church in Huntsville, AL where he re-committed his life to Christ through baptism on July 6, 2019.
