On Sept. 8, residents from Orinda and Moraga lined Moraga Way to honor Moraga Police Corporal Kevin Mooney, who died Aug. 21, 2021, from COVID and related complications. Due to COVID concerns, funeral services were not open to the public, but many turned out along Moraga Way waving U.S. flags as the law enforcement procession escorted Corporal Mooney to his final resting place. Corporal Mooney served in Orinda for many years prior to his service in Moraga. He also served his country as a member of the United States Marine Corps.
