Carolyn J. Moore

Carolyn J. Moore (Carol) passed away peacefully early in the morning on Friday, December 13, 2024. She was blessed to spend her last days in her home in Bonita Springs FL. Carol was a Pennsylvania native that grew up in Philadelphia before moving to the suburbs to raise her family with her beloved husband and best friend, Dick (Foley). Her younger years were spent working for the Boeing Company, which she left in order to obtain her BA in Interior Design at The Art Institute of Philadelphia. She was known for being a “spatial specialist” and went on to design and decorate their future homes, one of which was featured in the local newspaper. After making their move to Sea Isle, NJ, Carol and Dick proceeded to Snowbird to Florida before planting their final roots in Estero, FL, where they spent almost 30 years. Enjoying retirement, she learned to golf, participated in many fashion shows showcasing her incredible sense of style, joined local plays, and always could find a good game of cards nearby. She loved to entertain and would throw grand parties where drinks were constantly flowing, and Carol’s culinary skills were always a hit. Carol also spent many years volunteering at Church thrift shops and Meals on Wheels. Carol was very blessed to see the world traveling with Foley. Visiting many states in the US, tropical islands, Asia, and Europe it was no doubt that Ireland was her favorite as she was fortunate to visit where her family lineage originated. Carol loved life. She had great sense of humor, she was generous, kind, loving and was always there to lend a helping hand to anyone in need. She loved spending time with her family and always considered herself blessed with her cherished Foley. Carol was preceded in death by her soulmate Foley, her parents Walter and Carrie Moore, brothers Walter and Charles Moore, and stepson Richard Foley. Sadly, also preceded by two grandchildren, Michael Foley (Richard) and Chani Davidson (Laura). Carol is survived by her loving family: Brother David Moore, Children Laura Davidson, Carla McCrossan, Wendy Williams, Frank Foley, Mary Wortman and Chris Foley. Florida daughter-niece Eileen Moore. She is also survived by grandchildren Kara (Laura), Clayton, William and Taylor (Carla), Veronica and Dillon (Wendy), Shannon (Richard), Kaitin and Lauren (Chris), Zoe (Mary). She was blessed with three great-grandchildren Camille and Rhett (Shannon) and Phoenix (Clayton). She will also be missed by many nieces and nephews. A Celebration of Life for Carol will be at a future date.
