Dear Family,
As a mechanic on General Moores C-141 Aircraft, it was my privelege to serve under him. He was above all a gentleman and a great boss. It saddened me to learn of his passing and my thoughts are with you. RIP Boss!

Dear Allison and Family
You have been through so much, losing both Marge and the General in such a short period of time. It was such a wonderful experience for us to get to know them both. The contributions that they made will be forever appreciated by many. Please accept our heartfelt sympathy. Cecil and Tommye Elrod and family

Oh! I have slipped the surly bonds of earth
And danced the skies on laughter-silvered wings;
Sunward I've climbed, and joined the tumbling mirth
Of sun-split clouds - and done a hundred things
You have not dreamed of - wheeled and soared and swung
High in the sunlit silence. Hov'ring there
I've chased the shouting wind along, and flung
My eager craft through footless halls of air.
Up, up the long delirious, burning blue,
I've topped the windswept...

Gen. Moore was our Wing CO when
I served at Sewart AFB, Tenn.
May General Moore Rest in Peace.
