On January 27, 1947, Leroy "Babe" Moore was born to the late Berwick Sr and Hilda Mae Connor- Moore in Ashton, Louisiana. Leroy accepted Christ at an early age and was baptized by the late Rev. Teno at Saint Moses Baptist Church in Surrell, Louisiana. Leroy left home at an early age to attend the Louisiana school for the Deaf in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. He thrived and was able to take all the things he was taught at the school to help himself and others. Leroy learned sign language and read lips. He didn't let his inability to hear or speak hinder him in any way. Leroy just wanted to be treated with dignity and respect. He loved people and people loved him.

Leroy met the love of his life, McRee at the school for the deaf and upon completion of their education, they were married. A few years later they had a beautiful baby girl Jessica Renee Moore, their one and only child. They were a special and beautiful couple that loved life.

Leroy loved to dance and was a great dancer as well. He worked for the Coca- Cola Plant in Franklin, Louisiana for several months before moving to the one in Beaumont, Texas.

Leroy attended First Baptist Deaf Church for many years before his sickness under Pastor Nick Dignan. He leaves to cherish his memory of his daughter Jessica Moore of Beaumont, Texas. Leroy's close friend was Marvin Lynn Dockert.
