John Lee Moody, 66, passed away on May 30, 2025, in Cocoa, Florida. Born on September 24, 1958, in Kenmore, New York, John lived a life marked by kindness, loyalty, and deep devotion to his family and faith.
A proud Christian who found joy and strength in reading the word of God, John carried his beliefs into every aspect of his life. He was known for his generous spirit-always ready to offer someone a place to sleep or share a heartfelt conversation. His warmth and compassion left a lasting impression on all who had the privilege of knowing him.
John was a devoted father to his daughters Rachael (Darrell) Moyer and Heather Moody. He cherished his role as a grandfather to Melynie Kennerknecht and Dominick and Avery Moyer. Time spent with his grandchildren brought him immense happiness; they were the light of his life.
He is also remembered with love by his siblings: Scott (Jonie) Moody; Rene (Jonathan) Geis; Steven (Jenelle) Stromberg; Michael (Susan) Stromberg; Vivian Stromberg; and Linda Stromberg. His extended family includes many aunts, uncles, cousins, nieces, and nephews who will continue to carry forward the memory of his laughter and kindness.
John was predeceased by his parents Naomi and Irving Stromberg; his sister Jennifer Moody; brother Dale Stromberg; and niece Lynnann Moody.
Music played a special role in John’s life-he especially loved Lynyrd Skynyrd and country music. Whether enjoying a good western movie or engaging in a friendly game, he embraced life’s simple pleasures with enthusiasm. But above all else, it was time spent with family that he treasured most.
Those who knew John will remember him as the kindest father and grandfather-a hardworking man whose loyalty never wavered. His words of wisdom, infectious laughter, and unwavering kindness will live on in the hearts of those who loved him.
May his memory bring comfort to all who mourn his passing.
