On a beautiful Saturday afternoon, May 2, 2020, God called home his faithful servant, Rev. Jackie “Jack” Ray Moses. He was born on July 15, 1934 to the late Thomas Moses and Minnie Moses Epley.

Jack was a people person and never met a stranger. He loved to talk. He loved his family and really enjoyed fishing at the coast with numerous family members and friends. He was an ordained Freewill Baptist Minister for over 50 years, pastoring several churches across North Carolina. His latest pastorate was at Lenoir First FWB Church where he lovingly served as pastor for over 32 years until his retirement. Jack loved the Lord and loved going to church. He was very faithful, hardly ever missing a service until his health started declining several years ago.

In addition to his parents, Jack is preceded in death by his loving wife, Gladys Patton Moses; son, Jeffrey Ray Moses; grandchildren, Shanda Smith, Cody Davis; siblings, Bill Moses, Claude T. Moses, Beulah Norville; step-father, George Epley.

Jack is survived by his daughters, Dianne Sparks and husband, Dirk, of Morganton, Debbie Bess and husband, Mel, of Connelly Springs, and Donna Davis and husband, Randy, of Morganton; daughter-in-law Pam Moses, of Morganton; grandchildren, Danya Costner Moody and fiancé, Nick Miller, Nathaniel Jackson and wife, Amy, Matthew Davis, Amanda Moses Hewitt and husband, J.P., and Samantha Moses Lowdermilk and husband, Jonathan; great-grandchildren, Brandon Moody, Jr., Shawn Moody, Ethan Miller, Kennedy Jackson and was anxiously awaiting the birth of his great-grandson Jaxtyn Lowdermilk, whose anticipated arrival is his birthday, July 15; sister-in-law, Viola Moses; step-brother, Allen Epley; and many in-laws on the Patton family side, as well as all his nieces and nephews. He will be greatly missed.

Rev. Jack Moses will lie in state at Sossoman Funeral Home for his brothers and sisters in Christ, friends and family to pay their respects from 10:00am until 2:00pm, Tuesday, May 5, 2020. A family graveside service will be held at 4:00pm, Tuesday, May 5, 2020 at Nowlings Chapel Freewill Baptist Church with the Revs. Daniel Hensley, Darvy Hensley, and Marty Bess officiating. A Celebration of Life service will be held at a later date.

The family would like to thank Dr. Michael Stutesman and staff and Burke County Hospice for the loving care given to our father.

Memorial contributions may be made to Burke Hospice and Palliative Care, Inc.
