Patients & Families: Curtis Edward Moore
Curtis Edward Moore, a man of extraordinary strength and dedication, has spent his life serving his country, protecting his city, and sacrificing for his family. Now, at the age of 96, Curtis is receiving Calvary’s expert palliative care, CalvaryCare®.
Calvary’s compassionate, loving care is provided in Curtis’s home.
In loving tribute to her father, Curtis Moore, Phyllis Robinson graciously invited us to glimpse into the extraordinary life he has led. Curtis dedicated himself to serving our country as a Montford Point Marine and our city as an NYPD detective. A true pillar of his family, Curtis has always placed his children and grandchildren at the forefront of his heart and actions.
Phyllis shared, “Calvary has been a blessing to my family.” Curtis continued, “I wish I had the words to express my thanks to the Calvary Community; they’ve been just wonderful to me.”
We are excited to share the story of Curtis Moore’s remarkable life and proud to say Calvary has been able to provide the love, support, and comfort he needs.
