YOUNGSTOWN - Robert Dennis "Denny" Moran, 88, passed away Friday, January 31, 2025.

Born on November 2, 1936, in Youngstown, a son of the late, Robert and Helen Fitch Moran.

A proud veteran of the United States Navy, Robert demonstrated an unwavering dedication to his country. Following his military service, he began a 25-year career as a millwright at Packard Electric. He was deeply involved in the International Union of Electrical Workers. Robert's commitment to the labor movement extended to his role as a mediator for the National Labor Relations Board, where he sought fairness for workers and advocated for their rights.

Robert's passion for education and community engagement was recognized when he received the Pope Pius X Excellence in Teaching Award. He was also an active member of St. Michael's Parish in Canfield and St. Christine's Parish in Youngstown, where he shared his faith and commitment to others.

In addition to his work, Robert was a devoted family man, leaving behind a legacy of love and strength. He is survived by his daughters, Susan (Jeffrey) Palmer of Westlake, Cynthia (Kevin) Windham of Lisbon, and Lisa Herndon of Norman, OK; his son, Matthew (Nicole) Moran of Kent; brother, Brian (Cherrie) Moran of Austintown; 11 adoring grandchildren and three great-grandchildren.

He was also preceded in death by his beloved wife, Margaret E. "Sally" McCarragher Moran, whom he married June 27, 1959 and passed away December 4, 2021; a brother, Tom, and two sisters, Sandy and Anita.
