Obituary of George Aaron Moser

George Aaron Moser, 48, passed away suddenly due to cardiac arrest on May 6, 2024 at Morristown Medical Center, Morristown, NJ. A resident of Randolph, NJ, Aaron was born in Newark, Ohio and grew up in Largo, Florida. He was a graduate of Largo High School and moved to New Jersey when his parents relocated there in 1996.

At age 10 he was diagnosed with total kidney failure and began at-home dialysis until he was able to receive a kidney transplant. In 1988 his mother donated a kidney for him which functioned perfectly for nearly 13 years. In 2001 Aaron was again in kidney failure when he was fortunate to receive a new transplanted kidney which was still functioning some 23 years later.

Aaron attended St. Petersburg Junior College in St. Petersburg, FL and the County College of Morris. He worked for United Parcel Service in Parsippany for 5 years before becoming more interested in medical work. Returning to school, he received training that enabled him to work with the New Jersey Sharing Network in New Providence, NJ where he served as a Quality Assurance Associate. In 2015 he relocated to Omaha, NE for a similar position but returned to Randolph in 2020.

He maintained an active life in high school in spite of his health, ringing handbells in the church bell choir and playing trumpet in the high school band. He had a good sense of humor and comedic timing along with an infectious laugh. He especially enjoyed summer trips to his grandparent’s home near Pittsburgh where he and his sister and cousins Brandon and Kristin would spend hours playing in the county park that adjoined the property and going with their grandpa for ice cream (an almost daily occurrence). In later years he enjoyed attending the New York Auto Show with his dad, something they did almost every year, and racing remote controlled cars.

He was preceded in death by his mother, Kathryn R. Moser in 2008, his maternal grandmother Frieda L. Richards and his paternal grandparents, George B. and Jane K. Moser. He is survived by his father, George W. Moser (Mary Lou Burde) of Chester, NJ; sister, Tamara E. Moser (Frederic Prieur) and their children Noah and Cole; aunt, Luann Rice; uncle, Walter Bruce Moser (Charmein); cousins, Brandon Rice (Kimberly) and Kristin Rice Mahtani (Ryan); his maternal grandfather, William H. Richards, Jr. (Bert); uncle, William H. Richards III (Joy), and cousins Rebekah Richards Brewer (Jeff), Benjamin Richards (Beth) and Rachel Richards Marquart (Joe).

A memorial service will be held Saturday, June 22, 2024 at 11:00 a.m. at St. John’s Lutheran Church, 587 Springfield Avenue, Summit, NJ 07901. His ashes will be interred next to his mother’s ashes in the memorial garden at St. John’s.
