Robert Victor Moore

Robert Moore, 96, of Highlands Ranch, spent the final week of his life in home hospice care, smiling and laughing with family and close friends. He died peacefully on March 16. A native of Colorado, Bob was born near Hoyt, on a ranch homesteaded by his father and uncle. He took pride in Denver and its landmarks, including East High School where he ran track. Bob served in the U.S. Navy and was a veteran of both WWII and the Korean War. After a long and distinguished career with the U.S. Postal Service, he retired in the mid-1970s as the Director of Mail Processing, but remained active his entire life - working a second full career with AT&T and maintaining a keen interest in politics and history until his death. He was an avid golfer in earlier years, and always, a captivating storyteller. Bob is survived by his wife of 40 years and a large extended family, each of whom benefitted in countless ways from his love, wisdom, humor, and generosity. A private burial service was held at Fort Logan National Cemetery. Memorial gifts may be made in Bob's name to Legacy Hospice, 412 Jerry Street, Castle Rock, CO 80104 to honor the family's deep appreciation for the loving care Bob and they received.
