Moe was truly one of a kind! She had such a wonderful outlook on life. She was one of the most compassionate and empathic people I have ever known, although I think....it was her wonderful sense of humor that I will miss most. I thought the two of us had figured out a way to grow old together....and make the "golden years" something to really look forward to (despite the aches and pains...and all the glorious things that go along with aging). Having a friend like Moe makes one realize just how IMPORTANT a friendship can be! I will do my best to face growing old without her, but I seriously doubt it will be what "it might have been" without her. Her beautiful smile and her contagious giggle will be forever in my heart. My deepest sympathy to her family and friends. It does my heart good to recall all the wonderful things she had to say about her children and how very proud she was of them! Sincerely, Jean

Kyla and family,
We are so very sorry for your loss. I believe that we met your Mom only once, at Billy's house a few years back at a 4th of July party. We remember her clearly for her magnetic personality. Please know that we are thinking of you and are here for you if you need anything.
Lots of love,

I'm so sorry to here of Moe's passing. I've known her since we worked together at the VA Hospital. I was so happy when she went into private practice. She saw so many of my patients, and ALL were extremely satisfied with the care they received from her. There has not been a replacement, and perhaps there never will. I will miss her

so sorry to hear of Moe's passing. I also grew up with her on West Third St. I remember going to all her birthday parties as a child. Maureen and I also had to sing a song together at our Jr. High School Graduation from Varnum school. We had many adventures as children, Maureen loved to put on plays in the back yard. She will be missed.

I was shocked to hear of Moe's passing. I have known her all my life since we were just kids on West Third St. we grew up together and were best friends for years. Although we have not see each other over the years we still remained friends and when we did get together it was just like we never missed a day we just continued where we left off. Once when it ws my birthday she wrote me a poem on a cash register tape it was about 5 ft long and then when I turned 40 she wrote me another poem which I still have today 18yrs later Boy she liked to write. I will miss her she will never be forgoten In this life all you need is one friend she was that one Rest in peace best friend Love Linda
