Karen Moore

July 9, 1940 - March 7, 2025

Karen Yvonne (Hansen) Moore passed away peacefully at the age of 84 on March 7, 2025. She was born in Stockton, California, to parents Robert and Norma Hansen on July 9, 1940 (a birthday gift to her sister Sandra who turned two years old on that same day!).

Karen attended Weber Elementary School, Stockton Junior High and Stockton College. She was proud to be a part of the first graduating class of the newly-developed Amos Alonzo Stagg High School in 1958. She loved to drive, and it was common for her friends to pile in her car on any given Friday evening and head to San Francisco for a few hours of fun, before turning around and coming home - radio blasting, of course!

“Aunt Karen” took great pride in her nieces and nephews and loved them as her own. She was always there for them in every way possible. She enjoyed her job in the catalog department at Montgomery Wards, where she made many lifelong friends. Later, she worked at Carnation Company’s trucking division, and it was there that she met her future husband, David Moore. David asked her if she’d like to go on a “ride-along” during a delivery in his semi-truck, and the rest is history! They married in 1987 in Reno, Nevada.

She was known to take any stray cat under her wing, and that lucky kitty would be treated like a king or a queen. Karen had a soft spot in her heart for all animals. Throughout the years, Karen was an active member at Trinity Lutheran Church, teaching Sunday School, singing in the choir and serving on Boards. Karen had a very sharp wit, and everyone loved to be around her! Karen will be deeply missed by all who knew her.

She leaves behind her loving husband David Moore, dear sister Sandra Brungardt, treasured nieces Donna Kay Valdivia, Lauren Michel, Julia Lambie and Jennifer Ashby, and caring nephew Keith Mead. She was affectionately called “A.K.” by her great-nephew Casey Tholborn and great-nieces Madeline and Ruby Lambie.

CELEBRATION OF LIFE
A Celebration of Life will be held on Wednesday, April 2, 2025, at 1 p.m. at Trinity Lutheran Church, 444 N. American Street, Stockton, California, with light refreshments to follow in the Fireside Room. Private interment at the Sierra View Mausoleum at Cherokee Memorial Park.

Robert Abercrombie

September 11, 1955 - March 5, 2025

Robert Steven Abercrombie, devoted husband, loving father, proud grandfather, son and brother, passed away peacefully at home in Acampo, Ca. on March 5, 2025, surrounded by family. Born on September 11, 1955 in Visalia, Ca. to parents Bob (deceased) and Barbara. The Abercrombie family that included Robert’s siblings, Linda, Richard, Lisa, Ronald and Laura moved to Stockton, Ca. in 1969. 

Robert was married to the love of his life, Bridget, for 47 wonderful years. Together, they built a life rooted in love and partnership.  He was the cherished father of Monica (Matthew) Newman and Eric (Kristin) Abercrombie and the proud "Papa" to three beloved grandchildren that he treasured spending time with: Dominic Newman, Adalyn Abercrombie, and Abigail Abercrombie. 

A man of humility, integrity and extraordinary capability, Robert was deeply respected by those that worked alongside him.  As Senior Vice President of Vineyard Operations for Trinchero Family Estates he dedicated over 30 years of his life to his fulfilling career, he was a world-class grape grower, cultivating enough grapes to fill an astounding 3.4 billion glasses of wine! 

In retirement, Robert continued his love of farming and grape growing, which led to his new passion of winemaking, founding Robridge Wines in 2015. With meticulous care, he hand-selected four varieties of grapes, perfectly suited for the region.  More than just an amateur winemaker, Robert was a generous soul who delighted in sharing his craft.  If you visited his home, you arrived as a friend and left as family - likely with a bottle (or two) of his wine in hand. 

Whether tending to his vines, lending a helping hand, or enjoying moments with family and his many friends, Robert excelled in everything he did. His legacy of hard work, kindness and generosity will live on in the many lives he touched. 

In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to Hospice of San Joaquin in Robert’s memory, hospicesj.org. 

We will raise a glass of wine in your honor Robert as you will be forever loved and missed.
