Linda Moser was 35 and from Evansburg, Pennsylvania. On March 31, 1985, after attending Palm Sunday services at St. James Episcopal Church in Lower Providence Township, she was fatally shot outside the church by her estranged husband, Leon Moser. The attack also killed Linda’s two daughters, Donna, 14, and Joanne, 10.

Reports say Leon Moser used a bolt-action rifle and had a history of threats and physical abuse toward Linda. After shooting Linda and the girls he attempted to take his own life but was taken into custody by police. The killings drew significant public attention and raised urgent questions about domestic violence and protection for victims.

Does anyone have memories of the family or information about protections that were—or were not—in place in 1985?
