Mr. James Moore Sr.

James G. Moore Sr. was born on September 6, 1963, to the union of Nick Williams Jr. and Doretha (Moore) Williams in Vicksburg, Mississippi. James Moore was the second born of four children. James accepted Christ at the young age of 7 and was very active in the church. He served as a youth usher under the leadership of the late George Jolly, and was a member of the Angel Choir under the leadership of Sister Bullock, and all were under the leadership of Rev. Leonard McDonald. He later rededicated his life at Bethel Baptist Church, under Pastor Williams Robbins Sr. James was widely known as the ultimate handyman. If the air around you were broken, he would find a way to fix it. If you needed a paint job, snow plowing, grass cut, or any home improvement, James was perfect for the job. James was the pure life of the party. The electric energy he brought when he entered a room could light up even your worst days. His enormous energy mixed with his sense of humor reminded you of an everlasting comedy special. If there was one lesson James taught everyone, it was to leave their feelings at the door because no one was too good for criticism and feedback. There was an expectation that James would always tell you the "truth", then follow up with "I'm just playing". James was definitely true to the game when it came to chasing after what he desired. By any means necessary, he would take that extra mile to make sure he achieved his end goal. James was also known as a natural born runner. His speed could impress even the professionals with his ability to outrun everyone. As time continues, he's still running a good race, one beside God as he watches over each and every one of us. James G. Moore Sr. departed this life on December 13,2023. He was preceded in death by his: grandparents, Nick and Geraldine (Wilson) Williams, Effie McKinley, and Effie (Kensey) Moore; father, Nick Williams Jr.; and sister, Effie Dineen Williams. He leaves to cherish his memory: mother, Doretha Williams; children, Andrea Davis Lambert, Davontae Burnett, Carissa Burnett, Yuneka Moore, and James Moore Jr.; two brothers and two sisters, Charles Moore, Lemonia Williams (Jackie), Priscilla Sampson (Osbee III), all of Milwaukee, WI, and Kim Durham (Lloyd) of Allen, TX; and a host of grandchildren, nieces, nephews, cousins, other relatives, and friends.
