Not sure what to say?

Offering belated condolences to Powell's family, I must add how honored I am to have been a fraternity brother who had the good fortune to weave in an out of his professional career, directly and indirectly, during the years after being together at UGA. Powell was a cut above the norm in life and a trusted friend. I am blessed to have known him.

I was very sad to learn of Powell's passing. I had the great honor and pleasure of working with him in the Reagan White House. He was always kind, generous with his accolades of other people and just a good human being. He was one of the good guys. ❤

My heartfelt sympathies go out to Francie, Allen & other members of Powell's family. He served his country in so many outstanding ways & it was an honor & privilege for me to know & work with him.

So sad to learn that Powell Moore passed away. I first met him when we worked to together on the Nixon Inauguration Committee in 1972 at Ft. McNair. Here was a pleasure to be around and loved his job.

I was so sorry to learn (today)of Powell's passing. He was one of the first people I met in Washington when I arrived in 1985. Simply put, he was a prince of a guy, a loyal friend, a mentor to me and to many others, and was always quick with a smile and a kind word. I hadn't seen him for several months and had no idea his health was failing. In his last days, I wish I could have told him what a positive impact he made on my life and how loved he was....

I worked closely with Powell during the Nixon and Ford Administrations on various congressional relations projects, and continued to see him from time to time. I considered him a good friend and a very helpful colleague. His family and many friends can take great comfort in the knowledge that he lived a very full and productive life of public service, at the highest levels.
