Drew Moseley, age 66 years of Archbold, OH, left for his eternal home in heaven on Monday afternoon, January 6, 2020 from his earthly home following a brief illness.
He was born January 22, 1953 in Montgomery, AL, the son of Reginald and Dona Moseley. He married Rosene Miller Short on January 2, 2010 and made his home with her in Archbold. Drew lived in Jasper, AL before moving to Archbold in 2010.
He worked as a salesman for many years selling real estate and beauty supplies. Drew’s real love was to be a salesman for Jesus bringing the salvation message of our Lord Jesus Christ to those that would come across his path.
In Jasper, he was known as the Waffle House Chaplain where he ate breakfast. He prayed for many there and led many to the Lord Jesus Christ as he shared the gospel message.
He also had a jail ministry in Jasper, along with 2 nursing homes where he ministered weekly. After moving to Archbold he was a co-pastor at Victory Barn Church in Edgerton the past 10 years serving alongside of his wife, Rosene.
Drew was an elder and associated with teaching and preaching. He was the outreach pastor and led weekly services at 5 nursing homes in the area leading many to the Lord Jesus Christ just before they passed from this life. He had such a love for those that were hurting and needed a touch of God in their lives.
He ministered weekly in the jail leading many to the Lord Jesus Christ, mentoring them and teaching them the Word of God. He frequently visited those in the hospital to encourage, comfort and pray for them.
Drew had a great love for people and especially for his family. His wife, children and grandchildren, brothers and sister held a special place in his heart as well as many close friends. He brought Godly wisdom and counsel to the table in times of need.
Drew enjoyed the beauty of nature. He found peace in the serene waters of Smith Lake and Maumee Bay State Park, as he did so many other special places. He enjoyed fishing, water skiing and riding jet skis.
He was delighted in spending time at Oak Mountain State Park & Put-N-Bay where he enjoyed deer, bird and eagle watching. He also loved Alabama Football (Roll Tide!) and man’s best friend, Baby Mo, his black lab.
