Celebration of Life

Darrick Moore Jr

 

From Darrick Jr's sunrise on April 3, 1998, he burst onto the scene with a zest for life.  From an early age Darrick Jr loved to laugh, was quite precocious, possessed a natural curiosity, and took up the room as soon as he walked in. So much so that his daycare nicknamed him the Mayor!



Darrick Jr was a proud graduate of Northern High School in Calvert County, Maryland and was very intelligent excelling in Math and Science. He received a full tuition scholarship from the University of Maryland, Eastern Shore where he studied chemistry and where he was planning to return this fall to complete his degree.



Darrick grew up attending Friendship Missionary Baptist Church in North Carolina. He was an active member of the children's ministry. He attended Sunday School and Vacation Bible School. He attended Mt. Ennon Baptist Church with his father weekly during high school.



Darrick Jr was a gifted musician playing the Flute and French horn with his primary instrument being the Flute in high school and college. He was often called upon to play for his high school and college matriculation ceremonies.



Darrick Jr was also and avid gamer. He also enjoyed swimming, riding scooters and his skateboards. He was always in search of the nearest skate park. Darrick was an exceptional chess player and loved board games.



He enjoyed tacos, candy and as a matter-of-fact Darrick Jr never met a bag of skittles that he didn't like. One of his favorite pastimes was watching movies and hanging out with his 'cousins-crew'. his father or with his favorite Aunt Pam and his Uncle Maurice.



Darrick Jr's sunset was on May 2, 2022. Darrick will never be forgotten but forever cherished in our hearts. He will be greatly missed by all who were fortunate enough to know him.
