Donald John Moseby, Sr., was born January 20, 1935, in Tulsa, Oklahoma, to Leo Turner and Sarah (Curtis) Moseby. He died Tuesday, November 29, 2016, in Tulsa, Oklahoma, at the age of 81 years. Don was reared and educated in Tulsa and graduated with the Central High School Class of 1951. He was married June 20, 1953, in Tulsa, to Peggy Jane Davis. Don surrendered his life to the ministry and began pastoring as an Associate Pastor with Bethel Baptist Tabernacle in Tulsa. He founded Maranatha Baptist Temple in rural Collinsville, Oklahoma, in 1976, and has served as their pastor since that time. Sharing Christ with others was his calling in life, and he had a strong desire to support foreign missions so that the Gospel could be preached around the world. Don enjoyed spending time snow skiing, but his greatest enjoyment was spending time with his family as well as many friends. He was always ready to visit with a good story and sometimes a good joke.
