I worked with John for a few years at Superior Coffee. A good man. Funny, good story teller, great laugh. I was new at my job, and John would always take me to the side and start off by saying "now listen to me Bob....." and I would then get a piece of advice or a bit of his knowledge or sometimes a piece of his mind!
Sorry to hear of his passing, he was a good guy and will be missed. John and his family will be in my prayers

Denise and Heather,
I was so sorry to hear about your dad's passing. I know this is a difficult time for you both. Unfortunately I was unable to come to chicago for the services. I think of you both often and hope that you are doing well. On Sunday I was driving to Appleton with my friend Erica and during the long car ride we were talking about our childhoods. I was telling her about your mom and dad and your both and how we had so much fun spending the night at your house, holiday celebrations and Mad-Dan's resort, etc. Some of my favorite memories were times spent with your family. I looked up to you so much when I was a young. After I arrived home that day, my dad called one hour later to tell me about your dad's passing. When you are feeling up to it, I would love to speak with you both and catch up. I tried calling Denise to give my condolences but the number I have was incorrect. I hope that we can reconnect.
I'm glad that my parents and Toni were able to attend.
Please know that you are in my thoughts and prayers.
Take care and I hope to speak with you soon,
Erin McNally

Although I haven't seen John Moore for some 40 years, I can still remember his lovely Irish laugh and see his smiling Irish face . I remember he and Freida just being a joy to know. I was a teenager then and only saw them sometimes when the Kelleys and Kunkels got together with the Moores and I was hanging out with "family". A lovely man. My condolences to Heather and Denise and families.

I met John through my cousin Margaret, who is his next door neighbor. Although I only met him myself a few times, I know that he was considered family by Margaret, Joe, and Declan. They loved having him as their neighbor - a little bit of Ireland right next door. He will be greatly missed and fondly remembered by all who knew him.

A father to our dearest friends Heather and Pat is indeed a father to all of us. You will be missed as much as we miss our mothers and fathers who are in the care of our Lord Jesus.
