David J. Moyer, 68, of Macungie, died Sept. 2, 2020. He was the husband of Brenda (Bogert) Moyer. They were blessed to share 50 years together. Born in Allentown, he was a son of Caroline (Rote) and Noah Moyer (stepfather) and Dick and Sis Moyer (father and stepmother).

He touched many young lives as a baseball and softball coach for the Alburtis Youth Association and served as the organization’s president for many years.

He lived his life to the fullest and always brought joy and laughter to those around him. He was an avid Phillies and Steelers fan. He spent his retirement golfing, fishing, hunting, woodworking, playing shuffleboard, darts, poker and spending time with his grandkids.

He was a loving husband, dedicated father and fun-loving grandpa.
