Wilmer L. Moore ’51

Play Pause Unmute Mute

Wilmer Lewis Duckie Moore passed from this world into the gates of Heaven on May 6, 2008. He was born on December 20, 1928 in Olanta, S.C. He was the son of the late Rue Ingram Moore and Wilma Lewis Moore. Mr. Moore graduated from the Citadel in 1951. He was a Korean War veteran and a member of the American Legion #85. In 1955, he returned home to assist his father in running the family Texaco service station. In 1968, he was employed by the United States Postal Service as a dedicated Rural Mail Carrier. Mr. Moore was a lifelong member of Nazareth United Methodist Church in Olanta, which he fully supported with his presence and frequently encouraged others to join him there. His hobbies were too many to mention, but his passion was fishing. He was a gifted storyteller with a wonderful sense of humor; a humble man who freely gave of himself and helped countless people during his lifetime, quietly and generously. Those who were blessed to share his life were Miriam Brown Moore, his beloved wife of 53 years, his daughter, Mitzi Gayle Moore, his son, Robin Marion Moore, his daughter-in-law, Jessica Wheeler Moore, his grandson, Reynolds Marion Moore, his granddaughter, Lindsey Moore Godwin and her husband, Dexter Evans Godwin Jr., and his namesake, Tyson Lewis Godwin, his precious great-grandson. His many blessings also included his brothers and sisters; Zilphia (Raymond) Gibbons, Alvida (James) Evans, Houston (Joyce) Moore, Randolph (Jenny) Moore, and Tom (Peggy) Moore, and the late Reverend Cannon Rue I Moore Jr.. His life was also illuminated by 7 nieces, 10 nephews, 12 great-nieces, 17 great-nephews, and many, many true friends on earth and in heaven. The family would like to extend their sincere gratitude to the employees of the McLeod Hospice House in Florence for their compassion during his last several hours. Because Duckie loved the casual setting of home, with family and friends close-by, the celebration of his life will exemplify this casual style he enjoyed. The celebration will be held at Thomas Cemetary in Olanta at 2:00 PM on May 9th, directed by Floyd Funeral Home. The family will receive friends at their home from 5:00-8:00 PM on May 8th. Memorials may be made to Nazareth United Methodist Church, P.O. Box 368, Olanta, SC, 29114, or to the charity of your choice. Published in the Morning News on 5/8/2008. Tags: 1951
