He was born October 28, 1944 to the late Elder Carl Moore and Mazie Lockett (Moore) in Dixons Mills, AL. Willie Moore affectionately known as “Dub” decided in his early twenties to move to Kalamazoo, MI to be with family. Prior to moving to Michigan, eldest son Delon Moore of South Central, Los Angeles, CA was born. At the age of 21, Willie met his beautiful wife-to-be, Grace Loftin. This led to a 53-year union of marriage and two sons, Terry Moore of Kalamazoo, MI and Willie Moore Jr.of Palmdale, CA. Willie enjoyed driving and admiring fast cars, especially his 1967 GTO. He spent hours fishing and hunting throughout his life. Fish Friday and Barbecue Saturday became a weekly tradition for family and friends--no invitation needed! If Willie was present, there was no such thing as a stranger. He would talk to anyone anytime and share the last of whatever he had. Willie had a strong love for family and spoke a language that only his grandchildren could understand. Willie Moore was preceded in death by his parents, Carl and Mazie Moore; his siblings Elder James Moore, Patricia Moore, Roy Moore, Lillian Moore, John Moore, Joyce Robinson, Vesta Kennedy, Johnnie Lee Jackson, Lucy Spencer, Thelman Moore and Henry Moore.
