The discovery of a married couple deceased in their South Carolina residence has prompted a homicide investigation, with law enforcement reaching out to the community for assistance in unraveling the mystery.

Identified by the Oconee County Coroner’s Office, the victims are Larry Moore, aged 76, and Sandra Moore, aged 75.

The alarm was raised by a family member who contacted emergency services on Thursday night after failing to get in touch with the couple, reports WYFF.

According to the coroner’s office, the Moores succumbed to traumatic injuries. However, specific details are being kept confidential at the sheriff’s office’s request to preserve the investigation’s integrity.

The timeline of the couple’s death remains unclear, and authorities have not disclosed how long they were inside their home before being found. Deputies noted that the last interaction with the couple occurred earlier in the week.

Sheriff’s officials say investigators believe the incident is isolated and that there is no danger to the public, but confirm a homicide investigation remains ongoing.

In a message to congregants, Calvary Church said it was sharing the news “with heavy hearts,” describing Larry and Sandra Moore as “longtime and most faithful members,” and asking the community to lift their family and loved ones in prayer.

Those who knew the couple described them as gentle, faithful and deeply rooted in their community. 

Church members called them the “backbones” of the congregation, while a family member wrote that they were “two of the most godly people” devoted to a life of service.

Many people in the community also confirmed to WYFF that the couple owned the Moore & Moore Fish Camp for decades and retired in 2016.

Investigators are urging anyone with information related to the case, including home security video from the days leading up to the discovery, to contact authorities.
