September 8, 1969 – January 27, 2022
Dena Renae Moore, 52, passed away the morning of January 27, 2022. She lost her hard-fought battle against COVID-19 related pneumonia at Ascension St. Vincent’s in Indianapolis. She was born in Danville, Ill., on September 8, 1969, and resided in Fishers at the time of her death.
Dena was raised in Fishers and graduated from Hamilton Southeastern High School in 1988. She resided in Daytona Beach, Fla., with her family from 1995 until 2012 before she returned to Indiana. Upon her return to Indiana, she reconnected with a high school classmate, Mike Moore, whom she shared a great love with and later married at Lake Wawasee in Syracuse, Ind., in 2018.
Dena was full of life in many ways. She was a passionate caretaker, skilled crafter, and devoted mother, sister, daughter, wife, and friend. In her spare time, she enjoyed listening to music and dancing the night away. She also enjoyed traveling to Wisconsin every summer with her husband Mike and Florida to visit her son Alex. She was adored by her seven-year-old chocolate lab, Dakota. Dena touched the lives of everyone who met her for the better.
She is survived by her husband, Mike Moore and family; son, Alex Shepard and wife Jennifer; stepdaughter, Alexis Moore; mother, Barbara Scott; sister, Darla Armstrong; and sister, Debbie Burgess and husband Rob.
Dena was preceded in death by her father, Bill Black, and her brother, Don Black.
Visitation will be from 2 to 4 p.m., with services to follow at 4 p.m. on Saturday, February 12, 2022, at Randall & Roberts Fishers Mortuary, 12010 Allisonville Road, Fishers. Rev Brian D. Derrer will officiate.
In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made to Christ the Savior Lutheran Church, 10500 E. 126th St., Fishers, IN 46038. Contributions will go to their programs to help people with special needs like Mike’s sister, Donna Moore.
