Moe was a proud son of Boston’s South End and a Cathedral High School graduate. For many years, he lent his booming voice to St. Mark’s Parish in Dorchester, where parishioners would attend multiple holiday Masses just to hear him sing. He had an immense love of sports, politics, and his adopted city of Quincy. In his later years, he was devoted to serving veterans in his community and proud that he and six of his brothers had served in the United States Army. He could often be found watching the ball game or helping out at the Quincy Sons of Italy.
