Verona - Barbara (Barb) Ann Moore (Liesse), beloved mother, daughter, sister and dear friend passed away on March 17, 2022 at the age of 85. Born in West Allis, WI on July 1, 1936, Barb lived much of her life in West Bend, WI where she raised three children as a single mother. Her children were her life and she heroically made sure they were cared for and loved – not an easy feat as a single mother and despite hearing challenges since birth. Barbara spent the final years of her life surrounded by family and friends in Madison WI where she moved to be closer to family in 2016.

Barb grew up in a tight knit family and raised her children with the help of Raldon Liesse (father) and Catherine (Kate) St. Claire (Liesse) creating fond memories on the shores of Big Cedar Lake in West Bend. Barb worked at Amity Leather, Gehl Company and others in West Bend.

Barb is survived by her daughter, Lori Moore, Clearwater FL; son Randy Moore (Dave Clark), Madison WI; brothers Robert (Bob) Liesse, Sr (Dolly), and Patrick Liesse (Kay); and grandsons Mark and Michael Yantz (Florida). She joins her son, Jeffrey Moore (1971-2015) and her parents Raldon and Catherine (Kate) in the loving arms of the Lord.

Visitation and memorial services will be held at Ryan Funeral Home – Verona Chapel, 220 S. Enterprise Dr, Verona WI 53593 on Thursday, March31, 2022 from 4:00 – 7:00 pm, with virtual viewing starting at 5:30pm and eulogy at 6:00pm. Barb will be laid to rest beside her parents and son at Holy Angels Cemetery in West Bend this summer.

The family suggests an appropriate way to honor Barb’s memory would be to support Heartland Hospice (www.promedicahopsice.org/madison) and any flower arrangements donated to Barb’s service be arranged through Felly’s Flowers (www.fellys.com, (608) 221-4200.

Randy and Lori have my sympathy. I live on Sheridan Drive and your family lived right behind us on Imperial Ct. I remember when u were young and she was a struggling single Mom. She was a nice person and really never complained. She was a survivor of many things. May she rest in Peace

Our sympathy to you Randy and your sister Laura for the loss of your mom. Your mom, friends Vi Hagner Kopeschka Braatz, Darleen Ganns Baerenwald & I along with other close friends have many nice memories of our young single days working in the office of the Gehl Co., West Bend. We bowled Monday nights at Lighthouse Lanes, West Bend for the Gehl Bros. Mfg. Co back in the early 60's and also enjoyed our times together going for fish fries, luncheons, parties by her parents home on Big Cedar - all good memories. May your mom, Barb, rest in peace. Our love, Darlene
