His last theater role was in the Romanian play, Celălalt Cioran, which means The Other Cioran.[1] Moldovan's final play was named after Romanian philosopher, Emil Cioran.[1]

Romanian President Traian Băsescu posthumously appointed Moldovan Knight of the Order of the Star of Romania on March 15, 2008.[3]
