Mr. Mosselman is always dedicated to St. Jude the Apostle Church and all his friends there. After moving to Sherman, he would make frequent trips north for funerals and anniversaries. Personally, I'm thankful for his presence on Ingleside Avenue and wish peace and healing to his daughters, sons and grandchildren.
