Serena Nicole Moore, of East Haven, left this earth suddenly on January 11, 2017. Serena was born on July 22, 1986 and traveled through her short life to the beat of a different drum. She was a loving mother, loyal friend, and gifted writer who cherished family & friends alike. Always willing to share her heart, Serena will be deeply missed by all whose lives she touched. She leaves behind her sweet daughter, Lily, parents, Jack & Sue, brother, Evan, and grandmother 'Mama,' as well as an uncle, 3 aunts, many cousins, and many, many loving friends. Her free spirit is finally truly free and she can rest peacefully, watching over all those she loved as big as the sky. Services will be held privately at a later date. Arrangements in care of BEECHER & BENNETT FUNERAL HOME, Hamden. In the spirit of Serena's kind and caring heart, please make a gift in her memory to the charity of your choice and perform a random act of kindness.
