Alan H. Moore, born Jan 29, 1938 in Providence, RI to Robert and Dorothy (Angel) Moore and lovingly raised by Beverley Moore from the age 6, passed away peacefully on April 2, 2023 in Blacksburg, SC.

He married Fay E. Kornemann in 1965 in Bellingham, WA. They later divorced in 1989. They raised 2 children in Whatcom County, WA.  He was a hard-working man who cared deeply for his family and had many friends.  

He enlisted in the US Navy in 1955 and retired as a 1st Class Petty Officer after 20 years.  “Al” served during the Vietnam War.  He was assigned to a few duty stations along with serving aboard the USS Enterprise (CVAN-65).  He was so proud of his military service.  Even after he retired, he loved talking about his time in the Navy.  He never went anywhere without his Navy hat and always wore his USS Enterprise or Vietnam belt buckle.   

He worked at Lynden Transport Inc., in Lynden, WA and Coastline Equipment in Bellingham, WA.  He made many life-long friends at both businesses.

He loved his family, friends, serving in the Navy, NASCAR and taking care of his yard!
