OBITUARIES
Harvey Roy Moon
Harvey Roy Moon, 72, husband of
Nancy Beck Moon, entered into rest
Monday, October 28,
2019, at Eisenhower
Army Medical Center
in Fort Gordon,
Georgia.
Mr. Moon, son of the
late Annie Bell
Summerour Moon and
John Thomas Moon of
Dawsonville, Georgia,
was born in Atlanta,
Georgia, and grew up in Dawsonville.
He graduated from Dawson County
High School, Class of 1966, where he
also played varsity basketball for the
Dawson County Tigers and won
awards as a member of 4-H and the
Future Farmers of America. He also
was a Life Scout in the Boy Scouts of
America.
Mr. Moon was a 22-year veteran of
the United States Army, serving two
tours in Vietnam. He then worked at
Snyder Dental Clinic at Fort Gordon
for 30 years. He was known for his
sense of humor and his big heart, and
he will be missed greatly by all of his
family and friends.
In addition to his wife, he is survived
by his children, Nathan Moon and
Melanie Moon; his brothers, Frank
Moon, Jimmy Moon, and David
Moon; and his sisters, Nancy Moon
Gilbert, and her husband Wayne, and
Dixie Farrell.
If so desired please make a memori
al contribution to the charity of your
choice in his memory.
Mr. Moon will be laid to rest at New
Bethel Baptist Church in Dawsonville,
following a memorial service for fami
ly and friends on Saturday, Nov. 16, at
2 p.m.
Chance & Hydrick Funeral Directors
of Augusta was in charge of the
arrangements.
Frederick (Fred) Schwegel
Frederick (Fred) Schwegel, of
Dawsonville, passed away peacefully
on Thursday, Oct. 31 at
his home in
Dawsonville.
It had been Fred’s
wish that when his
time came that he be at
home when it hap
pened with his loving
and devoted daughter, Schwegel
Debbie, by his side.
He got that wish.
In July of 2019 following back sur
gery from a fall, Fred started showing
signs of what ended up being a rare,
incurable and fast acting brain disease
called Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease
(CJD). He was officially diagnosed
with CJD in September. CJD affects
only about one in every 1,000,000 peo
ple in the world every year. It can hide
in the body unseen for decades until
something, such as a fall or surgery,
sets it in motion.
Fred was born in Millville, NJ on
Thursday, April 24, 1941. He was the
son of the late Fred and Irma Mae
Schwegel. He was preceded in death
by his wife Betty, brother Paul and sis
ters Ann and Mary.
Fred had a bright and energetic per
sonality. He loved to laugh and
throughout his life Fred was always
the life of any party. He was always
ready to dance as soon as the music
started and was first on the dance floor
- even if that meant making one.
Besides spending time with his fami
ly and friends, Fred loved to run. In
July 2019 at 78 years old, Fred com
pleted his 38th Peachtree Road Race in
Atlanta. Fred had also completed mar
athons in Atlanta, Bermuda and New
York. For over 40 years, lacing up his
running shoes and heading to Stone
Mountain park to run and train with
his fellow Sumo Runners was one of
the great joys of his life.
Fred is survived by his daughter
Debbie Buchanan, the “son he never
wanted” as he would joke Herman
Thompson, ex-wife Faye and stepson
Craig, his girlfriend Janet and dog
Angel, sister and brother-in-laws
Bertha, Ronnie, Herschel, Rose and
Ellis, as well as many nephews, nieces
and cousins. He was a caring and giv
ing man that was loved by all his fami
ly and friends.
Family and friends are invited to
attend a Celebration of Life gathering
at Bearden’s Funeral Home in
Dawsonville on Sunday, Nov. 24 from
2-4 p.m. Please come and share your
stories about Fred.
In lieu of flowers the family asks
that a donation be made to the
American Cancer Society, the Heart
Association, the Humane Society or
the Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease
Foundation (www.cjdfoundation.org).
Bearden Funeral Home of
Dawsonville was in charge of the
arrangements.
