OBITUARY:

Born in Reading, he was the son of the late Albert and Mary (Flaherty)Moore. He lived in Woburn most of his life, except for a brief time after his marriage in Winchester. He attended Woburn Schools and was the recipient of his high school diploma in 1998, as he had left school and

served in the Navy during World War II. During the war he served aboard the USS Vammen in

Okinawa during the invasion.

Following the war, Dave returned to Woburn and shortly afterwards was married in 1951. During that time Dave had worked building greenhouses for a good number of years.

Mr. Moore was very involved with his children, serving as a Boy Scout Leader for many years and taking part in their different athletic events. He was an avid bowler and also enjoyed fishing and gardening, where his specialty was

tomatoes.

After his children had grown and started families of their own he was very active with his grandchildren and so enjoyed spending a great deal of time with them.
