September 3, 1963 — May 9, 2025

Morganton

James Lincoln Moore Jr., 61, of Morganton, passed away Friday, May 9, 2025, at UNC Health Blue Ridge. Born September 3rd, 1963, he was the son of the late James Lincoln Moore and Dorothy Ann Bowers.

James was known for his great sense of humor and deep love of the outdoors. He found peace and joy in fishing, kayaking, and hiking—and shared that passion with others by teaching them to kayak. His adventurous spirit and generous heart had a lasting impact on everyone who knew him.

He is survived by his daughter, Courtney Morris Price (Matt) of Morganton; his son, Joshua Morris (Brittney) of Forest City; three grandchildren, Mallie, Josie, and Reagan; the mother of his children, Linda Morris; two sisters, Robin Arney (Tim) of Morganton and Melanie of Arizona; and numerous nieces and nephews.

In addition to his parents, he was preceded in death by his sister, Geneva McGee, and his two brothers, Thomas Moore and Shon McGee.
