Not sure what to say?

Mr. Moses was such an important part of our community. His educational and cultural values were apparent in his support of local activities. A special memory of mine is when my students wrote and performed the centennial program at the birthplace of Pearl S. Buck in Hillsboro WV. We invited the chorus and band to travel with us and perform. It was such a delight to see Harvey and Betty Moses in the audience, such incredible support for local students!

So where to begin speaking about Mr. Moses. He was such a kind, loving, generous, and knowledgeable man. He taught me so many things in the 29 years I knew him.

God Bless his wife and family! I never knew much about him until the last few months. He lived a long life and made a difference I am sure

He was a good neighbor. He shared his garden vegetables with his friends and neighbors. God be with Betty and his daughters.
