Pat, We were so saddened about the news, all of our love and sympathy to you and your family. We were so privilaged to have been your neighbors and friends, Gene will be missed much. Our prayers are with you at this time. Love, Lana and Jack.

Gene was a long time family friend, begining with aunt, Dessie (Robinson) Moody, who used to babysit Gene and his brother. Gene was key with helping me with my disability rating from military. He was a great Congressman and a wondeful man. He will be sorely missed.

For 12 years my wife, Maureen, and I have been neighbors. We have enjoyed fellowship and banter with a really great man whom we respected a lot. His appreciation for simple logic was pure. We shared his faith in God. Our prayers go out to Pat, his wife and our friend, and to all those who loved him.

I enjoyed our friendship over the years especially while I served as Oldham County Judge and Judge-Executive.Betty and My thoughts and prayers are with you Pat and the rest of the family. Judge wendell and Betty Moore.
