Oh I am so sorry. Eddie was a very good man. He was very kind to me and I will never forget him. We will all cry for a while, then maybe we can smile remembering how nice a person he was.

Although we caused untold amounts
of aggravation to Ed,(by cutting through the lumber yard to get to school) he was always nice. Mr.Moura, rest in peace. We won't bedevil you anymore.

To the Moura family, I am sorry for your loss. I worked for him back in the 50s, and he was one of the best bosses I ever had. Bernie was my best man when I got married in 1956. I`m sure you will miss him. Pete Metz

I'm saddened to read about Mr. Moura (calling him by his first name just doesn't feel right to me!). I can't tell you how often I think about you folks and have lots of memories. I remember you all as a tight and loving family, and this will help you through this time. You are all in my thoughts and prayers.
