Leon Moore, Sr., transitioned from mortal to immortality on Wednesday, April 11, 2018 at his residence surrounded by his loving wife and family.
Leon was born in Galveston, TX in 1947.
His parents were Robert Moore and Luzine Crain Boone, who both preceded him in death.
He was an early entrepreneur and the owner of Motown Motors in Galveston, TX and Chevyland in Texas City, TX. He loved cars and anything to do with them because nothing was ever junk.

He is also survived by his brothers, Willie (Thelma) Moore, Robert Moore, Charles Crain and Amos Crain; sisters, Carolyn Crain and Patricia Crain; children Dana (John) Solomon, Roshonda Simmons, Roscoe Simmons, Rafaeld (Charles) Glenn, and Chris Taylor; his grandchildren along with many other relatives and friends.
