"My Dad,
I'm going to miss this man so much! The love, the talks, the rides, the fussing, the arguing, and so much more. I'm sure I'll even miss the chances of taking you to the grocery store. Most times that's where the arguing began. You were so independent and would not let me speed up the process by giving a helping hand. He would ride that mobile chair through the store like a racecar going way too fast. I would be so mad, but all I could do is shake my head and laugh. I could go on and on. My dad was very unique. I love you forever man throughout eternity." - Lil Rick
"My Father-In-Law,
If to know you is to love you was a person, I would definitely be you. I could expect phone calls every other day. You would start calling super early if we had something to go do. "Get up, get up, time to go!", you would say. "Come here, what's the problem? Boy, boy, boy, Always late!" Some calls would just be "Hello-Goodbye". I would repeat it right back with a smile. I'm going to miss you calling and saying "Hey Baby!" with such enthusiasm and life. Then Lil Rick would respond jokingly, "Don't be saying no "Hey Baby!" to my wife." With the Lord's Help, I'm going to continue to take good care of your boys just like you hoped I would. If to know you is to love you was a person, it would definitely be you." - Katrina Moore (Daughter-in-law)
"Grandpa,
This seems so surreal, I can't explain how I really feel. It's hard to grasp that you're really gone. From watching you and the stories I've heard, you were so so strong. My dad always said I have ways just like you. In your words, "I hope so", because I could use your strength to. I inherited your way of thinking, that what's mine is mine. But I also inherited a heart that is kind. You came to my basketball game not really knowing which one out there was me, but you sat there and cheered us on indefinitely. You would call and ask "Come here, Basketball, it's alright". I knew you meant did y'all win tonight. You constantly told me "Come here, go to school, good grades". I won't let you down grandpa for the rest of my days. I'll always hear your voice, you saying things like "Boy, boy, boy, same kind, just like me.", as we sat in your recliners listening to loud jazz and watching TV. WE shared some real good memories and I'll cherish each and everyone. You were proud to have me and I'm proud to be your grandson. Lastly, I know I'll smile when I can hear you say "Lil Rick, turn left, keep straight". - Love you, Brysen Ricardo Moore (Grandson)
