Moose was born, January 27, 1947 in Gardena. In 1965, Moose enlisted in the United States Air Force, obtaining an Air Force Commendation Medal; Small Arms Expert Rifle Ribbon; Air Force Longevity Service Award Ribbon; National Defense Service Medal; Air Force Overseas Long Tour Ribbon; Air Force Overseas Short Tour Ribbon; Air Force Training Ribbon; Vietnam Service Medal; and Air Force Outstanding Unit, along with countless hours of education to be elevated to the rank of Master Sergeant.
He was stationed in various locations throughout his Air Force career, California, Illinois, Southeast Asia, Michigan, Germany, Georgia, England, as well as North Africa. Moose began as an Eagle Scout which also reflected in his lifelong desire to serve his country. It was during his time in California that he met his wife, who was also enlisted in the Air Force at the time, and the two eventually married on October 25, 1969 on the grounds of Norton AFB. This would have been their 42nd Wedding Anniversary.
Moose was never afraid of hard work and was a perfectionist in all that he did throughout his lifetime, being taught his life ethics by his grandfather, "Pop" O'Haver and his father William.
Full Military Honors will coincide with Memorial Service, with Father La Clair of Saint Catherine's Catholic Church presiding. Moose will be remembered forever in our hearts.
