Anthony "Tony" Edward Moore, 55, of Charlotte Hall, MD, died on November 21, 2011 at Civista Medical Center, La Plata, MD. He was born on October 26, 1956 in Washington, D.C.

Tony was the son of Bernard Samuel and Dorothy Lee (Hicks) Moore.

Tony's interests were reading, writing poetry, drawing, and listening to classic rock music. He served in the Army and received medals for Sharpshooter (Rifle), Good Conduct, and various medals for service in Korea. Tony worked at Patuxent River Naval Air Station after serving in the Army until he became disabled from being struck by a car. Something unique about Tony is that you would always recognize and know a gift from him, because he would wrap everything in the funny papers.

Aside from his parents, Tony is also survived by two sisters, Bernice L. Moore and Vicky L. Middleton, a brother, Ronald J. Moore, nephew Dale Nelson, and nieces, Samantha St. Clair-Thomas and Katie Middleton.

The family will have a committal service at Maryland Veteran's Cemetery, 11301 Crain Highway, Cheltenham, MD 20623 on January 6, 2012 at 1:00 p.m.
