Mr. Moody was best known for being the proprietor of Moody’s Paint & Body Shop on Highway 101 in Bridgeport, Texas. After selling the body shop, Robert, an entrepreneur, became the owner of FastFab Metal Buildings where he and his son JR constructed metal buildings throughout Wise County and the DFW metroplex.

He married Carolyn Malcolm, the love of his life, in 1968, who survives him. Robert is also survived by daughter Robin Schagren of Highland Village, Texas, sons Robert “JR” Moody and fiancé Bobbie Schwartz of Lake Bridgeport, Texas and Sam Holmes and wife Tricia of Plano, Texas. Grandchildren include Ella Schagren, Collin Moody and Claire Moody.  Robert was preceded in death by parents James and Linnie Moody and brother J.C. Moody. 

 

Robert had a strong love for his family, church, community, farming and aviation. He will be greatly missed by all that knew and loved him.
