Joseph Jay Moore, 33, of Johnson City, Tennessee, went home to be with his Lord on Monday, 18, October 2021. He was a faithful follower of Christ and a loving son and brother. Joseph was a native of Johnson City and was a 2006 graduate of Science Hill High School. He earned his Associate Degree in Physical Therapy from Walters State Community College in 2012. Joseph found faith at an early age and was an active member of Central Baptist Church in his younger years. God’s word provided him strength and comfort through both good and difficult times. Joseph found joy in the outdoors and was most content during days spent hiking along the Appalachian Trail. He was proud to lead the way to all the best swimming holes and enjoyed sharing all his favorite scenic spots with his family and friends. Surrounding himself in God’s creation truly put him at peace. As Joseph’s favorite country music artist, Eric Church, writes, “Don’t let fear steal your brave heart, don’t let doubt take your faith heart, it’s ok to cry, but don’t never break heart”. He is preceded in death by his grandmother, Barbara Moore, and his grandfather, Albert Raby. Joseph is survived by his parents, Jonathan and Diana Moore; his sister Kristin; his brother Asher; paternal grandfather, Virgil Moore, Erwin; maternal grandmother, Betty Raby, Johnson City; several aunts, uncles and cousins. A funeral service celebrating his life will be held at 7:00 P.M., on Thursday, October 28, 2021 from the Sanctuary of Central Baptist Church, 300 N. Roan St., Johnson City, TN 37601. Pastor Bryan Moore will officiate. Music will be led by Tony Martin. The family will receive friends prior to the service from 5:00–7:00 P.M. at the church. Those who would like to make donations in Joseph’s memory may do so to your local animal shelter, or to First Baptist Church, 200 Love St., Erwin, TN 37650.Read Obituary
So beautifully done! This saddens me deeply to see a young man’s life taken too soon. My deepest sympathy to Jonathan, Diane, Asher, and Kristin. My heart goes out to you.
My heart breaks for you all, Joe was one of my son's (Dustin Baggett) best friends. He spent a lot of time with him and was at my home a few times,. He always had the best smile. I can't imagine the loss you are feeling. Jim and Sandy Baggett
I will always remember how he loved his Grandma and how he helped take care of her. It was obvious she loved him as much as he loved her. I will always cherish the talks we had over the fence between our house and his grandma’s house. He was a nice young man. He will be missed! Prayers for comfort continue for his family he left behind. We love you guys!
Joe was an amazing person inside out. I met joe when I was at my lowest point in life. I had lost my boyfriend a couple months before due to an overdose. Joe was the light I needed. We just re connected over a month ago, still going through losses and joe was the light I needed again. Spirits and hearts like Joes are hard to come by. I didn’t know it would be this soon that I would lose him again, but I am so glad I got to spend a lot of time with him this last month. We were talking about us finding a church, and maybe leading a youth group. Braxton my son adored joe as well. We will love and miss him until we meet again.
We remember Joseph as bright, friendly, considerate, thoughtful, athletic, and funny. He enjoyed running all over the neighborhood with the kids, always with a smile, and never got tired!
We will miss him, and know that God will take the depths of your sorrow to a place of comfort and peace with time.
Our prayers are with you.
God bless, and love,
Cathy & Steve Stimmel
I remember Joseph as a fourth grade student at Fairmont Elementary. He was so friendly and always smiling. May God be with you during this difficult time, Sincerely, Lynn Strickland
