May your light still shine in those whose your presence lit the way. Uelaine

Robert & I were highschool classmates and
college debate colleagues. We were also just good buddies. We double dated, ran around together, and had good times - so many years ago.

He was best man at my wedding & when he brought Janette back with him from Australia, they spent their first night in the US with us at our home in California.

The Moffat family visited with us in New York and Houston as well. We watched Kaaren and Iain grow up.

God bless you...

We are so sorry to hear that Gainesville and the UF Gourmet Group have lost yet another member of the Moffat family. It was such a pleasure to share many meal and holiday party experiences with them. They both left their stamp on our group in a big way and I think about them every time I go through recipes. Kaaren and Iaian, I am so sorry for your loss.

Professor Moffat was one of my favorite professors in law school. He was brilliant, kind, and inspirational. Every time that I visited the law school after graduation I made it a point to eat lunch with him. He was so proud of my accomplishments and that meant the world to me. I am deeply saddened to hear of his passing and will do my utmost to be at the memorial service.

Dear Kaaren and family,

Reading this obituary I am amazed (but not at all surprised) at the intellectual prowess and achievements of your father. I already understood that he had been a very caring father as well as a wonderful and strong personality from your personality descriptions, but I can now see as well what a major figure he was in his field. My deepest sympathies to you and your family, we are all thinking of you.
Best Wishes, Bernadette and family, Ireland

So sorry for your loss.

Bob Moffat was a long-time member of AMINTAPHIL, and one of the very interesting contributers. He was both a serious and humerous commentator on our papers. Of course, we all miss him.

I am so sorry, dearest Kaaren and Iaian, at the loss of your dear Dad. What painful things he has had to face. Please accept my love, deep empathy, and prayers. My memories of time spent with Robert and Janette, and both of you, are so very clear, and joyful. Your present expressions of affection and thoughtfulness are treasured. I shall find a quiet place, and think of you both beginning precisely at 2:00 - your time - on Dec. 9th. So know that I shall be there in spirit and prayer, by your...
