BELCHERTOWN — Kristin Elizabeth Moyer, 39, of Belchertown, passed away at home of natural causes on Tuesday, April 24, 2018.

She was born in Northampton in June 1978 to the late Elizabeth (Rodgers) Moyer and Ronald E. Moyer.

Kristin attended the Northfield Mount Hermon School, where her volleyball and softball teams won the New England Prep School Championships. She also set several individual school swim records and received a Thompson Blanket Award as the outstanding female athlete of her class.

She went on to receive a degree from the University of Rochester in Psychology and Health & Society. In addition to graduating with academic honors, Kristin was also a captain on the swim team and a middle hitter on the women’s volleyball team.

Kristin was a head swim coach over the years for both the Belchertown Stingrays and the Amherst Tritons, as well as for YMCAs in Westfield, South Carolina and North Carolina. She felt most at home on the edge of a pool giving instruction, advice, or heartfelt encouragement to a young swimmer.

As a busy and amazing single mom to two sons, she held down multiple jobs scoring sleep studies, developing her Synergy Massage practice, coaching swimming, and giving individual swim lessons, all so she could be constantly available for her boys.

Kristin loved the outdoors, kayaking, camping, hiking, the Patriots, the Red Sox, and making people happy. Kristin was an active reader, especially in the fields of psychology, sleep, and personal growth. She had a quick wit and a decidedly off-beat sense of humor.

She is survived by her two sons, J.R. Zlogar and Cody Zlogar; her father, Ronald E. Moyer and stepmother Mary Susan Moyer of Pelham; her sister, Courtney (Moyer) Woodruff and brother-in-law Nathaniel Woodruff of Pelham; her nephew, Samuel Moyer Woodruff and niece Elizabeth Jane (Elsie) Woodruff; and her aunt, Dr. Anne T. Rodgers of Hendersonville, North Carolina. She also leaves behind her companion, Matt Bail of Belchertown.  Her former husband is Kevin Zlogar of Amherst.  She was predeceased by her mother, Elizabeth (Rodgers) Moyer.

Calling hours will be from 4-7 p.m. on Wednesday, May 2, 2018, at Douglass Funeral Service, 87 North Pleasant Street, Amherst, MA. There will be a memorial service the following day, Thursday, May 3, at 10 a.m. at Wesley United Methodist Church, 98 North Maple Street, Hadley, MA.  A private burial is planned for the summer. In lieu of flowers, memorial donations can be made in Kristin’s name to the Belchertown Stingray Swim Team at 16 Two Ponds Road, Belchertown, MA 01007.
