"When the earth has claimed your limbs, then truly you can dance."
The Moore's were great neighbors to us when we were all growing up in Topeka. Dana was sweet enough to give me my first kiss.
Heartfelt thoughts to the whole family. I am sure Dana will be missed by many friends and family. I am glad his life was such a success!
