William C. Moore

Moore, William Carlton Pastor Bill Moore, age 67, died February 22, 2011 of intravascular lymphoma in Rochester, Minnesota. He is with his Lord and Savior whom he faithfully served his entire adult life, including 31years as pastor of Trinity Presbyterian Church in Plymouth, Michigan. Bill is survived by his loving wife of 44 years, Cindy Cain Moore, and his children Katherine (Timothy) Edgren, Daniel Moore Cain, Thomas (Jennifer) Moore, and Philip (Emily) Moore. Bill leaves a legacy of wonderful grandchildren: Joshua, Rachel, Tahlia, Daniel, Chaseton, David, Sarah, Aydia, and Logan. His passing is also mourned by his siblings: Twin brother, Charles (Debbie) Moore, Edwina (Jack) Daniels, Stephen (Debby) Moore and many relatives and friends. Bill grew up in Virginia and met his bride, Cindy, at the College of William and Mary. In the first week of his year as a college freshman Bill committed himself as a disciple of Jesus and to follow Him always. Bill earned his Masters of Divinity degree from Dallas Theological Seminary and his Doctorate of Ministry degree from Trinity Evangelical Seminary. A lifelong learner, Bill joyously audited dozens of additional seminary classes over the years, with Cindy at his side, furiously taking notes. Bill served as an associate pastor in Brainerd, MN for five years, and as the pastor of Evangelism at Ward Presbyterian Church in Livonia, Michigan until he founded Trinity Presbyterian Church where he remained until his death. Bill is loved by many for his playful sense of humor, his deep, godly wisdom and his cheerful and tireless compassion. His joyous enthusiasm for reading, traveling, gardening, home repair projects, and old westerns will be remembered and cherished. Pastor Moore’s friends and family mourn his death, but rejoice in the secure knowledge that, like the apostle Paul, Bill has ‘fought the good fight, finished the race, kept the faith‘. There will be a memorial service at Ward Church, (40000 Six Mile Rd, Northville, Michigan) at 11 am on Monday, the 28th of February.
