In Loving Memory of

Dr. Dee Dennis Moshos, D.D.S.

November 13, 1946 – October 29, 2026

With deep sadness and loving remembrance, we announce the passing of Dr. Dee Dennis Moshos, D.D.S., who passed away on October 29, 2026, at the age of 79, just two weeks shy of his 80th birthday after a prolonged battle with Cancer.

Born on November 13, 1946, in Torrance, California, Dee lived a life filled with purpose, dedication, adventure, and love for his family and community.

Dee proudly served in the United States Army as a supply chief. He was drafted in 1970 and served as a non-combatant due to his faith. He was deployed to Germany and later served around the U.S. before he was honorably discharged from service. He spent the next 10 years as an accountant for the State of California. He then devoted his professional life to dentistry, practicing from 1984 until his passing. Throughout his distinguished career, he served patients in Lake Havasu City and Flagstaff, Arizona, building lasting relationships and making a meaningful difference in the lives of countless individuals and families.

His commitment to his profession extended well beyond his own practice. He proudly served as past President of the Northern Arizona Dental Association and generously volunteered his dental services to communities on the Navajo Nation. His dedication to helping others reflected his belief in service, compassion, and giving back to the communities he called home.

He was a devoted lifelong member of the Seventh Day Adventist Church. The SDA Church was an important part of his life. He attended weekly and served in positions of leadership in his local church in Lake Havasu, Arizona. His dedication to his faith was steadfast.

He attended Newbury Park Academy in Newbury Park, California, where he met the mother of his children, Annie Pomikala. They married in 1967 and were married for the next 20 years. For college, he attended La Sierra University in Riverside, California, where he graduated with a degree in accounting. Later in life he went back to school and attended Loma Linda University Dental School, where he graduated from in 1984.

Outside of Dentistry, Dee had a deep appreciation for life’s adventures and simple pleasures. He loved traveling, riding motorcycles, collecting pocketknives, enjoyed bird watching, attending church, and most importantly spending time with his family. Whether exploring somewhere new, enjoying the freedom of the open road, or sharing time with the ones he loved, Dee found joy in the experiences that made life meaningful.

Above all, Dee was a father, grandfather, great-grandfather and a member of a family whose lives will forever carry his influence and memory. His love and legacy will continue through the generations that follow him.

He is survived by his three children:

Andrew MoshosTamara CharlesCynthia Golis (Stanley)

And his three great-grandchildren:

And his many nieces, nephews and cousins.

He was preceded in death by his father, Don Carlos Moshos; his mother, Bernice Elizabeth Cozart; his sister, Donella Munson; his brother, Don Carlos Jr.; and his sister Mary Keyser.

Dee’s life was measured not only by the years he lived or his professional accomplishments he achieved, but by the people he served, the family he raised, the communities he touched, and the memories he leaves behind.

His love of family, faith, travel, and adventure will remain part of the stories shared for generations. The lives he touched through his profession and his generosity will continue to be a lasting part of his legacy.

Though his passing leaves an immeasurable void, we take comfort in knowing that he is with his Lord, Jesus Christ. He will be missed, forever loved, and never forgotten.

May he rest in peace, and may his memory live on through all those who loved him.
