Mosley, Stephen – Passed away on June 14, 2018 at Royal Victoria Regional Health Centre after a lengthy illness. Predeceased by parents Ray and Joyce; brother of Paul (Sarah); uncle to Ryan (Casey) and Jordan (Lindsey); great uncle to Keira and Kaiden. Stephen will also be missed by the love of his life Nancy Latimer, who provided extraordinary love and support.
In the 1970s Stephen was instrumental in establishing the first Barrie Folk Society. In his later years, performing as Mose Stephenson, he was well known for his street performances and for lobbying the city in support of an organized street performer program. He also self-produced 5 CDs and had songs profiled on CBC Radio.
The family would like to thank CCAC (LHIN), Bayshore Health Care, and Royal Victoria Regional Health Centre for Stephen’s care.
Cremation has taken place. A celebration of Stephen’s life will be held at a later date.

Posted on: Thursday, January 3, 2019I met ‘Mose’ in 2004 and was immediately blown away by the art he was creating at the time. Not long after his music hit my sole and I became a huge fan. That year we lived under the same roof for a few months and in that time I got to enjoy his enormous talent.
He had a contravecial side that did not sit well with some people, but genius can do that when life serves up hard times!
A chunk of Barries heart is gone, not likely to be forgotten by all those who knew him.
R.I.P. dear friend

Posted on: Friday, May 31, 2019SHOCKED TO LEARN OF MOSE’S PASSING!!! IRONICALLY, I WAS TRYING TO CONTACT HIM REGARDING THE PASSING OF MY SINGER/ DAUGHTER IN EARLY DECEMBER 2018. I AM FORTUNATE TO HAVE ALL OF HIS RECORDINGS AND THEY HAVE HELPED ME IN MY GRIEVING PROCESS, BECAUSE I FEEL THAT I AM LISTENING TO A FRIEND THAT I JUST HAVEN’T SEEN IN AWHILE. VERY, VERY SAD . THE LOSS OF A GREAT TALENT AND A GOOD MAN. PERHAPS HE AND MY DAUGHTER ( SUZANNE KILGORE) WILL FORM A HEAVENLY VOCAL DUET. IT WOULD BE SPECTACULAR.
