Patricia
(Pat)
McCallister
Moore,
went
home
to
be
with
her
Savior
and
Lord,
Jesus
Christ,
on
June
25,
2022.
Pat
was
known
for
her
selflessness,
always
putting
the
needs
of
her
family
and
friends
ahead
of
her
own.
She
was
the
ultimate wife, mother, Nana and friend.
Born
in
Asbury,
WV,
Pat
moved
to
Richmond,
VA
after
graduated
from
Alderson
High
School
in
1959,
to
pursue
a
career
in
cosmetology.
Soon
thereafter,
she
met
the
man
who
would
become
her
husband,
and
they
brought
three
wonderful
sons
into
the
world.
Much
of
Pat’s
time
was
spent
supporting
her
sons
in
school,
little
league
and
other
activities.
Volunteerism
was
important
to
her,
as
evidenced
by
the
many
hours
she
devoted
in
her
early
years
to
the
various
little
league
programs,
her
involvement
with
PTA’s
in
various
capacities,
including
President,
dispatching
for
the
local
rescue
squad,
and
serving
her
Lord
at
Immanuel
Baptist
Church
where
she
and
her
husband, Ken, were married on September 2, 1961.
More
recently,
she
and
Ken
volunteered
for
several
years
at
the
Lackey
Free
Family
Medicine
Clinic
in
the
Williamsburg/Newport
News
area,
and
after
moving
to
Glen
Allen,
headed
up
the
Loving
Arms
homebound
ministry
at
Winn’s
Baptist
Church,
the
Church
that
they
attended
until
she
was
stricken
by
Alzheimer’s
disease.
Pat
was
preceded
in
death
by
her
parents,
Ernest
Perry
and
Madeline
Burns
McCallister,
her
grandson,
Alex
Moore,
her
sisters,
Kayle
Harvey
and
Elaine
Allen,
and
her
brothers,
Kenneth,
Keith
and
Lael
McCallister.
In
addition
to
her
husband,
Ken,
she
is
survived
by
her
sons,
Andy
(Karen)
of
Woodbridge,
VA,
Mark
(Lynne)
of
Mechanicsville,
VA,
and
Brian
(Julie)
of
Mechanicsville,
VA,
and
five
grandchildren,
Mallory
Makel
(Alex),
Sarah
Baker
(Noah),
Anna
Moore,
Jake
Moore
and
Abbie
Moore.
She
is
also
survived
by
six
brothers,
Bobby,
Eddie
and
Joe
McCallister
of
Redding
CA,
Perry
and
Jimmie
(Shirley)
McCallister
of
Livermore,
CA,
and
Garry
(Frances)
McCallister
of
Alderson,
WV,
and
several
nieces
and
nephews.
The
family
would
like
to
thank
Pat’s
caregivers,

Dolan,
Claudia
Charles,
Ellen
Blunt,
Olinda
Brevard
and
Sandy
Redd,
and

for
their
wonderful
care.
