Patrick Byron Moore, 50, born November 6, 1971, passed away on Monday, September 5, 2022. He lived a courageous and vivacious life. A child of God, Patrick was raised by his two loving parents, Peggy Hardy and Carroll Lee Moore III and lived his childhood in Poquoson, VA. Patrick graduated from Poquoson High School in 1989, enlisted in the US Navy and served our country for four years in Guam.
Upon his return, he moved to Gloucester, VA as a Newport News police officer. Changing careers, Patrick obtained his Master's in School Counseling to work at Matthews County and Williamsburg/JCC Public Schools for over 12 years. During his time at Lafayette High School, Patrick touched the lives of many a young person through his compassionate, kind, and loving spirit.
Patrick passionately loved life and learning: fixing cars, history and archeology, star gazing, fishing, boating, teaching gun safety, traveling to Gettysburg and Disney World, and raising fish and dart frogs. His favorite passion, however, was scuba diving. Patrick began diving at age 14 and logged over 1000 dives, exploring many WWII wrecks in Guam, North Carolina, and Florida.
He is survived by aunts, uncles, cousins, nieces, nephews, and in-laws including the Moore, Tolbert, Cox, Barbour, Hardy, and Anderson families. He impacted so many countless friends and scuba buddies around the world as well as many staff and students from Lafayette High school.
Patrick is preceded in death by his maternal and paternal grandparents from the Cox, Moore and Hardy families and his cousin, Lee Hardy.
