Remembering Gary Moeller
Memories and condolences from across the Michigan landscape weighed in on the passing of Moeller on Monday, including his former staff mate and successor Lloyd Carr.
“Gary Moeller was a great family man, great friend, great coach, and a man of integrity and high character. I admired him, I respected him and I loved him,” Carr said in a release.
Former equipment manager John Falk also weighed in, citing Moeller’s ability to care for everyone he came in contact with.
“I was fortunate enough to work with Coach Mo at both Miami (Ohio) and Michigan,” Falk said. “Gary Moeller was a coach that looked out for everyone that worked with him and for all of the players that played for him and represented our program.
“He was a good-hearted man who made decisions and sought input from his staff to make sure that the decisions were right for Michigan. Gary Moeller will be missed but will not be forgotten. He was a great Michigan Man and a close friend to my family.”
Current Michigan head coach Jim Harbaugh released a statement following Moeller’s passing, calling him “a wonderful family man.”
“The football world lost a great man in Gary Moeller,” Harbaugh said. “Coach Moeller cared for his players and his teams and was devoted to the University of Michigan. He gave a lot to the game of football, excelling as both an offensive and defensive coordinator and head coach in the college and NFL ranks.
“We have lost a wonderful family man. My thoughts and prayers are with his wife, Ann, as well as their daughters Susan, Amy and Molly, and my former teammate and fellow captain Andy.”
