Honey Grove, Texas -- Michael F. Moore of Honey Grove, Texas, passed away peacefully at home on June 2, 2025. He fought a courageous fight against cancer; his strength, easy-going personality, integrity and positivity will be deeply missed.

Mike was born on February 6, 1959, to Magness and Peggie Moore in Dallas, Texas, and grew up in Grand Prairie, Texas. Mike is survived by his loving family, including his mother, Peggie Moore; his wife, Gailyn Moore; his children, Melissa Moore, Michael F.

Mike was a beloved son, husband, father, and grandfather, a devoted family man. In his professional life, he most recently worked at the North Texas Municipal Water District, where he drove an 18-wheeler. He enjoyed his coworkers, many of whom he considered friends.

Mike cherished the time he spent with his family and friends. He loved golfing, fishing, and spending time on his boat. Creating memories and spending time at home were important to him.

Mike was the glue of the family, displaying grace and love that was bigger than life itself. He had a heart of gold, always the peacemaker and doing the right thing. He was an amazing dad and grandad, making sure he attended as many games, performances, and events as he could.

Mike was an incredible person to all who knew him, his legacy will live on through the countless lives he has touched. His story and kind heart will always be a part of those who loved him.
