TUCSON, AZ — Wallace V. Moll, age 92, went to his heavenly home on June 4, 2012, after a long illness. Wallace passed away at Odyssey Hospice, Tucson, AZ.

He is survived by his caring wife, Barbara Stratiff Moll; daughters, Deborah (Paul) Lexlow, Chagrin Falls, OH and Sara (Craig) Peterson, Pittsford, NY; sons, Wallace (Angela) Moll, Carmel, IN and Andrew Moll, Huston, TX; brother, Robert Moll, Buffalo Grove, IL; sister, Dolores (Paul) Silade, Connersville, IN; five granddaughters; one grandson; and two great-grandsons. He was preceded in death by his brother, Norman (Eleanor) Moll, Wheatfield, NY.

Wallace was born on May 25, 1920, in Wheatfield, NY, the son of the late Gustav and Esther Wienke Moll. Wallace had fond memories of growing up on a farm and enjoyed talking about driving a tractor at a very young age, milking the cows, and doing chores. "It was the best life for a kid," he would say. Equally important was his pride in his rich German heritage. In the 1840's, a large group of Lutherans immigrated to western New York and established communities in the area. The church members had been persecuted in their homeland, so with great courage and determination, they left family, friends, and possessions to start a new life in America, where they would be able to worship and establish schools in freedom. Wallace was a descendant of these courageous people and spoke Low German as a first language. Wallace attended Holy Ghost Lutheran School in Bergholz, NY. He was president of the senior graduating class at Trott Vocational High School in Niagara Falls, NY, and graduated from Tri-Sate University in Angola, IN, with a degree in Engineering.

Wallace was an accomplished, well-known architect. He began his career in industry, but later opened an office in Niagara Falls, designing schools in the local community. Later, he obtained his architectural license and began to specialize in church design in eastern United States and Canada. There are numerous houses of worship that attest to his talents combining aesthetics and worship. Wallace also designed townhouses, municipal buildings, private homes, and elderly housing.

Wallace served in the Navy during World War II. He was a past president of the New York State Society of Professional Engineers, Erie-Niagara Chapter; a Fellow member of the Society of American Registered Architects, as well as a past board member; a member of the Ontario Society of Professional Engineers-Canada; and a recipient of many awards, including the Gold Medal from the American Society of Registered Architects, their highest award.

He was a member of St. John Lutheran Church, Youngstown, NY, where a memorial service will be held at a later date.
