Obituary for George Andrew Moser Jr.

George Andrew Moser, Jr (GA) was called to heaven on December 25, 2022. He was born 12/4/1933 in Pueblo, Colorado to George Sr. and Maude Moser. He was 89 years old when he passed away.

He spent his younger years in town going to elementary schools on the East Side of Pueblo, Colorado. When he was in the 8th grade his parents moved to the Mesa, east of Pueblo, on a small farm. He graduated from Centennial High School in 1951. He attended Pueblo Junior College, earning an Associates Degree.

He met Jeanine Orr at Grace Community Church. They were married August 2, 1953. They spent their first year in Fort Collins, Colorado where GA pursued his Doctor of Veterinary Medicine (DVM) degree from Colorado State University (CSU). This was interrupted by four years in the Navy. He was stationed on a repair ship, Hooper Island for two years with a trip to Japan. His last two years were at Ream Field in Imperial Beach, California.

Shortly before his enlisted time was up, GA was accepted into the Veterinarian program at CSU. He received his DVM degree in June of 1962. GA, Jeanine, Leanne and Greg all traveled across country in the pickup with Asta, the dog and Sam, the cat to Goldendale, Washington, where GA started his practice as a Veterinarian. GA spent the rest of his career in Hood River, retiring after 30 years of practice.

GA and Jeanine spent 20 years going to Arizona as Snowbirds. There were many trips taken in their RV. GA was a member of the Church of the Nazarene in Hood River.

GA is survived by wife, Jeanine, daughter Leanne (Tom) Rien, sons Greg (Emily) and Scott (Janet), grandchildren Luke (Nicki) Rien, Gerhett Moser, Jake Moser, Summer Moser and Morgan Moser. Great Grandson Ryder Rien. Brother Larry (Becky) Moser of Colorado and many nieces and nephews.

We would like to thank the staff of Providence Hood River Memorial Hospital for the attention and care they provided to GA during his last days. The kindness that was shown to our family was appreciated and unmeasurable.
