Robert Moyer Jr.

Robert Kirk Moyer, Jr. “Robin”, 80, a lifelong resident of New Orleans who recently retired in Pass Christian, passed away at his home on May 9th, 2020 after a hard-fought battle with cancer.

He was preceded in death by his parents, Robert “Kirk” Moyer and Evelyn Sinclair Moyer; and his sister, Leslie “Blair” Lambert.

He is survived by his beloved wife, Marie Prados Moyer “Micey”; his loving son, Robert “Kirk” Moyer III (Darice); three cherished grandchildren: Amanda Blair Moyer, Robert “Kirk” Moyer IV (Cayla), and Will “Reese” Moyer; his sister Marietta Moyer Lanier Stirratt; seven nephews and eight nieces; and a large extended family. He will be greatly missed by all who knew him.

Robin grew up in New Orleans and also spent time on the Mississippi Coast with family and friends. He attended New Orleans Academy and then Sewanee Military Academy in Tennessee as a young man. He proudly served his country as a member of the United States Marine Corps and went on to attend Tulane University. Robin and Micey were married in 1962 and enjoyed 58 wonderful years together. Robin worked in the Insurance business for his entire career. In that time, he worked for his uncle, his father, for himself, and ultimately retired from Eagan Insurance. His family, friends, co-workers, and clients could always count on his kindness, generosity, and integrity. He now enters the Chapter Eternal of Sigma Chi Fraternity. He had been inducted into the Order of Constantine, their highest honor, many years ago. He spent many of his years as a chapter advisor, house manager, mentor, and fundraiser for the Alpha Omicron chapter at Tulane University. He dedicated so much of his time and efforts to his brothers that the chapter house was named for him, long before his death. He was also a member of the Stratford Club and longtime member of the Southern Yacht Club, where he enjoyed a life of sailing and racing in many locations around the world. Robin wished that any memorial donations would be made in his name to the Alpha Omicron Corp. at 1100 Poydras Street, Ste. 2800, New Orleans, LA 70163. Robin will be interred at Live Oak Cemetery in Pass Christian. Due to current conditions, memorial services will be announced and held at a later date.
