Notes for Harold Leonard Moose
Harold Moose
MT. PLEASANT Harold Leonard Moose, 90, transcended from earthly life to everlasting life on Tuesday, Feb. 21, 2012, at his home, 850 Bear Creek Church Rd. Mr. Moose will lie in state at Bethel (Bear Creek) United Church of Christ, Mt. Pleasant, on Friday, Feb. 24, 2012, from 1:30 to 2 p.m. Officiated by Pastor Terri Barringer and Rev. Bobby Bonds, the service of remembrance and thanksgiving will begin at 2 p.m. The Moose family will receive friends in the church sanctuary following the interment. Gordon Funeral Home in Mt. Pleasant is in charge of funeral arrangements.
Harold Moose was born June 16, 1921, in Cabarrus County, to the late Arthur Farel Moose and Tena Rowland Moose. He was preceded in death by four sisters, Mary Lucille Moose, Marjorie Rich, Lena Brown Rich, and Birdia Baker, and one brother, Archie Moose.
A lifelong member of Bethel (Bear Creek) United Church of Christ, Mt. Pleasant, Harold was a past member of the Consistory and was a valued trustee. Harold loved attending his boyhood church for every service until his health declined. Harold led an industrious and productive life, beginning his work career on the family farm, and continuing to farm for over 70 years. Harold worked at Kerr Bleachery in Concord and at Mauney's Feed Mill in New London. He loved fox hunting, going to field trials with his champion hunting dogs, taking fishing trips to the beach, and watching sports, especially baseball and NASCAR. In the spring and summer, family and friends knew that fresh fruits and vegetables would be delivered by Harold. He was a generous man and loved sharing the fruits of his labors with others. He was an informed man who read the newspaper from front to back on a daily basis. Harold was a loving husband, a wonderful father, a proud grandfather, and a special great-grandfather. He looked forward to visits from family members, and his eyes lit up when the children gathered around him. Harold loved to make funny faces and do hilarious things to get a laugh from his grandchildren and great-grand-children.
Left to cherish the wonderful memories are his wife of 70 years, Ruth Hill Moose; sons, Leonard Moose of Odessa, Texas, Benny Moose (Bonnie) and Eddie Moose (Janice) of Mt. Pleasant; a daughter, Reba Moose Zanfardino (Angelo) of Tallahassee, Fla.; and one surviving brother, Melvin Moose (Barbara) of Mt. Pleasant. Harold was proud of his eight grandchildren, Bonita Moose Rowland (David), Amy Moose, Benjie Moose (Susan), Scott Moose (Crystal), Alison Moose Hylton (Ray), Cristy Falkenbach Bringger (Ryan), Connor Falkenbach (Gabriella), and Travis Moose. Harold and Ruth have ten great-grandchildren, Abigal Yarbrough, Connor Rowland, Gavin Moose, Claire Rowland, Keegan Moose, Carter Rowland, Kendall Bringger, Raegan Hylton, Jackson Bringger, and Clay Hylton. Harold loved his faithful dogs, Ginger and Pepper.
The Moose family expresses heartfelt gratitude to all the friends and extended family for their loving support, cards, visits, and meals and a sincere thank you to Hospice and Palliative Care of Cabarrus County and a recent caretaker, Gwen Moore, who cared deeply for Harold. May God richly bless all of you for your loving kindness to Harold, Ruth, and the Moose family.
Memorials may be directed to Bethel (Bear Creek) United Church of Christ Cemetery Fund, 18937 Bear Creek Church Rd., Mt. Pleasant, NC 28124 or to Hospice and Palliative Care of Cabarrus County, 5003 Hospice Ln., Kannapolis, NC, 28083.
