Mr Moody was a good man, so sorry to hear of his passing. I rented an aptartment from him years ago, just next door to his barber shop, he was so good to me and my two boys. He always seen after them, they would go out to his shop and always come back with a coke and a hair cut, he always keep them looking good. When I would come home from work he alot of the times would have me fresh vegs. on my kitchen table from out of his garden. I was a single working mother, but I always felt safe with him being so near and kind to me and my boys.

Margaret,
I really enjoyed knowing your dad, and he gave me many, many haircuts over the years. We even took our son to your dad to get his first haircut and that was almost 30 years ago. We pray that our Lord will give you his peace and the sense of his presence during this time.
