\t\t\tThomas M. Moll \t\t<\/p>\n
\t\t\tOBITUARY\t\t<\/p>\n
Thomas M. Moll, 81, of Wyomissing, passed away on Sunday, March 8, 2026 at St. Joesph\u2019s<\/p>\n
Hospital & Medical Center, Bern Township. He was survived by his cherished wife of thirty<\/p>\n
years, Anne Overly-Moll.<\/p>\n
Born in Reading, Tom was the son of the late Abner \u201cAJ\u201d and Ruth (Putt) Moll. Tom dedicated<\/p>\n
his life to serving others. Upon his graduation from Reading Central Catholic High School in<\/p>\n
1962, he enlisted in the US Navy. During his four years in the military, he was a Naval Flight<\/p>\n
Engineer and bravely served in theater in Vietnam. In 1966, he joined the Wyomissing Police<\/p>\n
Department where he served until retiring as a Sergeant. He later served as the Director of<\/p>\n
Security for Vanity Fair Corporation. He left Vanity Fair to own and operate Schott\u2019s Candy,<\/p>\n
West Reading with his spouse, Anne, until retiring again in 2000.<\/p>\n
Not content with sitting still in retirement, Tom won several consecutive terms to serve on the<\/p>\n
Wyomissing Borough Council and was president for his last term in office. During his tenure, he<\/p>\n
rotated his assignments, so he served on every borough committee, and given his complete<\/p>\n
understanding of the Borough\u2019s operations, upon leaving Council, he was appointed to serve as<\/p>\n
the Wyomissing Borough Treasurer, a position he held for several years.<\/p>\n
In addition to his family and community, Tom loved keeping up on current events and was<\/p>\n
passionate about his collection of 1960\u2019s muscle cars. He loved discussing politics at all<\/p>\n
government levels, especially Wyomissing. He had an astounding encyclopedic memory of local<\/p>\n
history. He always had a story to share of his time serving his country, his community and his<\/p>\n
fellow citizens. A proud southpaw, Tom will be remembered most by his friends and family for<\/p>\n
his robust sense of humor and sharing a good belly laugh. His favorite motto was, \u201cIf it\u2019s sweet,<\/p>\n
I eat.\u201d<\/p>\n
Tom was quite proud of his Catholic faith. He recounted numerous times where other faiths<\/p>\n
failed miserably at attempts to make him convert. He quipped, \u201cI was born a Roman Catholic<\/p>\n
and shall die a Roman Catholic!\u201d<\/p>\n
In addition to his spouse, Tom is survived by his daughter Lisa Prather (Jeffrey); stepsons<\/p>\n
Brenton Watts and Dr. Benjamin Watts; grandchildren Carter Moll, Ella Moll, Samantha Prather,<\/p>\n
JP Prather, and Brittany Haywood; great-granddaughter Harper; sister Mary Guziak (Ronald);<\/p>\n
and his beloved one-eyed ginger-cat, Dewey.<\/p>\n
Tom was predeceased by his son Robert Moll (October 2025) and his brother Michael Moll<\/p>\n
(survived by his wife Wendy). \u00a0<\/p>\n
