I had the privilege of playing basketball for Coach Moriarty and he has been a major influence in my life as a teacher, athlete and a coach! I loved his crazy antics and his ability to motivate people! Thank you Coach for influencing so many students and players over the years.

Mister Moriarty was my history teacher in ninth grade at Illing in 1964, Illing's ninth grade then being housed at Manchester High. I loved his class and always enjoyed HIM. He was really into his subject and I suppose it helped that I was into it too, since he made history even more interesting for me. He was lively and had a great sense of humor. I so regret that after all this time I never told him how much I enjoyed his class. All I can do now is try to thank him through his family. I too will always remember him fondly.

My condolences to the family. I had both Mr. Moriarty and Mrs. Mort (class of 88). He made history so interesting. Once he was talking about an ancient ruler who named all of his children after him. (I can't remember who!) We all laughed and make comments about his ego and the absurdity of it. And then he told us he named his son James and his daughter Jamie...

Mr. Moriarty was my history teacher in Jr High School (MHS-class of 88). His wife, Mrs. Moriarty taught me at MHS. I was blessed to have Mr. Moriarty for my teacher -when I think back on those days - its memories of Mr. and Mrs. Moriarty that bring me the greatest joy. My sincere condolences to Mrs. Moriarty and her family during this time. Kim (Johns) Palma

Mr Moriarty was my favorite teacher in junior high. He made his lessons alive and exciting and I’m interested in history because of his influence. I was one of those students who dressed up on test day. He taught about civility and order in his classroom . My sincere condolences on your family’s loss.

To his family, I am very sorry for your loss. I was one of his many students at Illing in the 70’s. He was a great teacher and made you want to learn and excel. I wore skirts on quiz day; and to this day I still have odd dates and names filling my memory space (732; Martin Luther). He was my favorite teacher. He also had a saying before all quizzes, and I may not have it correct, but “piece of cake; can of corn”.
