Harper Lillian Moyski

November 3, 2014 – August 27, 2025

With deepest love and unspeakable sorrow, we share that our beloved daughter and sister, Harper Lillian Moyski, died tragically on August 27 at just 10 years old. She was the heart of our family, full of the brightest light, and the best big sister in the universe to Quinn.

Harper was pure magic. Sharp, funny, curious, and brave, she was entirely her own person. Our girl asked every question and expected real answers. She told the truth even when it was inconvenient. She loved stories, skincare, and creating videos about anything and everything from nature to nail polish.  Her style was incredible, and her sense of self far beyond her years.

She could hold her own in any conversation, especially about fairness or injustice, and had a sharp radar for social issues. Harper cared deeply about animals, people, and the planet.  No dog ever passed by without a pet or a scratch behind the ears from her. She dreamed of becoming a veterinarian and had the heart and smarts to do it. Snakes, frogs, and bugs never scared her.

Exploring the world and experiencing new things brought her joy, especially doing so with her family. Together, we set a goal of visiting all 63 US National Parks before she graduated college. With each trip, Harper led the way - wide-eyed, curious, and always up for the next trail.

Harper loved volleyball and was so excited to find a new passion that she could share with friends. She gave everything her all, loved making a mess, doing things on her own terms, and she made us laugh every single day.

But more than anything, Harper loved her little sister Quinn. She adored her, looked out for her, and lit up when they were together. That bond will never be broken.

Harper’s light will never go out. Her presence, her voice, her humor, her joy — they live in all of us now. She taught us to live with intention. To speak up. To be kind, even when it’s hard. To embrace every day with curiosity, courage, and heart.

We will celebrate Harper’s life on Sunday, September 14th starting at 12:00PM at the Lake Harriet Bandshell with music, food, laughter, and the kind of joy Harper brought into the world. All who loved her are welcome.

Food and refreshments will be provided – no need to bring anything. Directions to the Bandshell can be found here: Lake Harriet Bandshell Map & Location.

In her honor, we will continue chasing sunsets, asking bold questions, and loving with everything we’ve got.

Carrying her light forward,

Jackie Flavin, Mike Moyski, and Quinn Moyski
