Thomas "Tom"
Randolph Moyers
Feb 13, 1954 — May 28, 2023
Thomas Randolph" Tom" Moyers, of Timberville VA, went to be with his heavenly father May 28, 2023 at his home, surrounded by his loving family. He had courageously fought a battle with kidney cancer for the past 2 ½ years.
Tom was born February 13, 1954, in Harrisonburg and was the son of the late Floyd and Nellie Moyers.
Tom graduated from Broadway high school in 1973. He retired from Cargill in Timberville in 2021 as a machinist after 30 years of service, and co- owned Valley Avon in Broadway with his wife. Tom regularly attended Bethel Church of the Brethren, until his heath declined, where he recently became a member.
On December 9, 1972, he married his high school sweetheart, the former Sharon Wilt, who survives. This past December they celebrated their 50th Anniversary. They loved their many years of vacationing in the Great Smokey Mountains.
Tom is survived by a son Brian Moyers and wife Julie of Grottoes VA, a granddaughter Falon Moyers and a grandson Brennon Moyers both of Harrisonburg, mother-in -law, Maxine Wilt of Timberville; sister-in-law and brother–in-law; Marla and RH Kline of Singers Glen, sister-in-law Virginia Moyers of Timberville, his faithful pets; Zoey and Savvy, along with numerous nieces, nephews, aunts, uncles and cousins, including a special aunt by marriage Dorothy Hottle of Broadway.
He was preceded in death by his dear brother William "Bill" Moyers, who shared the cancer journey with him, in April 2023.
Tom will be remembered for his love of family, kind heart, and infectious sense of humor. He never met a stranger and would do anything for anyone.
The body was cremated and funeral arrangements have been entrusted to Grandle Funeral Home. There will be no visitation at the funeral home.
A celebration of life will be held at Bethel Church of the Brethren, 11374 Phillips Store Road, Broadway VA on Friday June 2, 2023 at 11:00 AM. The family will receive friends following the service, or at Sharon's home anytime.
The family would like to thank Dr. Zhijie Gao and staff of Sentara RMH Hahn Cancer Center as well as Sentara RMH Hospice for the excellent care he received throughout his journey. The family would also like to extend a very special thank you to Cherie Buzzard of Timberville who assisted tremendously throughout Tom's Battle.
