April 8, 1972 – October 21, 2025

Clint Neil Moon, age 53, of Des Moines, Iowa, left this life he loved so deeply and the people he cherished even more. Clint had a smile & laugh that could light up a room, and a spirit that made life more fun for everyone around him.

He is survived by his beloved wife, Hollie Moon; his four children: Dylan (Lucy), Brenna, Elsie (Connor), and Rilee (Skylar); and eight grandchildren: Kara, Ace, Ellie, Mark, Olivia, Hendrix, Vivienne, and Elliot. Clint also leaves behind his parents, Berry and Rose Moon; sisters Amanda Bales (Rich) and Jennifer Kern (Poe); five nieces; his dogs, Boone and Darla; and a wide circle of extended family and friends who were lucky to know him.

We know those he loved, that preceded him, were waiting for him in heaven. Clint had a gift for connection. People were naturally drawn to his realness, his humor, and his ability to talk about anything with anyone. He was lighthearted, good-natured, and resilient; always ready to lend a hand, no matter the circumstance. If you needed Clint, you could count on him. He took great pride in his work in the lumber industry, especially his time at Builders First Source, where he found some of his best friendships. Clint loved the outdoors, whether it was a lake, river, or ocean, he loved vacationing with family in nature. Hunting trips, deer camps, and fishing adventures were some of his favorite ways to spend time, but above all, Clint simply loved being surrounded by his people.

A celebration of Clint’s life will be held on November 1st from 1:00–4:00 PM at 23403 235th Place, Lacona, IA. Family and friends are warmly invited to gather, share stories, and honor the legacy of a man who made the world brighter just by being in it.
