Miami, Florida—The tragic loss of Meghan Moore, a beloved young woman from Cape Cod, in a recent murder-suicide has left family, friends, and the community in mourning. Moore, 25, was fatally shot on March 16th by Luis Napoles at her Miami condo, alongside her roommate, 23-year-old Sidney Capolino. Napoles, a 40-year-old Miami resident, later took his own life, leaving a wake of devastation behind.
Hailing from Centerville, Moore was known for her athletic prowess, particularly in hockey, which she pursued ardently during her time at Barnstable High School and later at New England College. Her radiant smile and vivacious spirit made her a favorite at Spanky’s Clam Shack in Hyannis, where her father served as a manager. Moore’s passion for life extended to her recent endeavor in the Miami restaurant scene, where she had embraced a new chapter before tragedy struck.
Described as a beacon of hope and dedication, the Meghan Moore Foundation has been established in her memory to honor her legacy. The foundation will award an annual scholarship to a deserving female student-athlete, embodying Moore’s unwavering determination and commitment. To support this noble cause, individuals are encouraged to contribute to the foundation instead of sending flowers as a gesture of remembrance for Moore’s vibrant spirit.
In remembrance of Moore, visiting hours will be held at Our Lady of Victory in Centerville, with a funeral mass to follow at the same location. The community is invited to gather at St. Francis Xavier Cemetery in Centerville for her burial, with a reception at the Hyannis Yacht Club to follow. Moore’s impact on those around her will continue to be felt through the foundation and the cherished memories she leaves behind.
The loss of Meghan Moore serves as a poignant reminder of the fragility of life and the enduring impact a single individual can have on those around them. As family, friends, and the community come together to mourn her passing, the legacy of Meghan Moore lives on through the foundation established in her honor, ensuring that her spirit of resilience and dedication shines bright for generations to come.
