Rose, You and the children will always be in my prayers. Maurice and you will always have a special place in my heart! The time you and he opened up your lives to each other before you were married showed how much you loved and were committed to each other. You fit together like "a hand in a glove" I know God put you together! Rose, Reese lite up when he spoke about you. He always had wonderful things to say about you. Thank you for allowing me to spend the time I did with you and him before the wedding. It will always be special to me. You showed the commitment you had for each other. Lastly, one of the fondest memories I have of Reese is how we greeted each other. I would always say, "Reese, in the house". He would say, "Big Bad, John!". He eventually shorted it to, "Big Bad!" I can still hear that ringing in my ear! I KNOW that he is resting in the LORD's arms, that he is in a better place, and we don't need to shed any tears, but I will always shed a tear for him. You two mean so much to me. You two are like my children in the "Spirit". He will always be live in our hearts.
Love, The Dobbs Family

I remember my Lil Big Brother telling me, "You know MO, the tall good looking brother that's always smiling" He didn't even know me, but because God said we were brothers, he blessed me. I'll never forget that for as long as I live. A wonderful man he is.. God bless you Rosemary and family. MO, I'll miss you.... B.K

Kennedy and I are so sorry for your sudden loss. We know that you are probably asking God a lot of questions right now but we pray that God, through His Holy Spirit, give you the peace that surpasses all understanding. May the Holy Spirit speak to you in the secret places of your hearts and exchange beauty for ashes, strength for fear, gladness for mourning, and peace for despair. God does hear and know your needs, just continue to believe.

To the family,
According to the Lord's own word, we tell you that we who are still alive who are left till the coming of the Lord,will certainly not precede those who have fallen asleep.For the Lord himself will come down from heaven with a loud command, with the voice of the archangel and with the trumpet call of God,and the dead in Christ will rise first.After that,we who are still alive and are left will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord forever.Therefore encourage each other with these word. 1THESSALONIANS 15-18

Maurice will be greatly missed. He always liked to joke around. When I had a problem and just wanted to talk, Maurice was there. He made sure I never left his desk without smiling. My oldest daughter and one of his sons was born on the same day, weighed the same and was the same length. We used to always joke about that. Maurice will be missed.

I just received word of Maurice's passing, and it hurts so much to hear. I used to work at Motorola, and Maurice was never without a big smile and was truly one of the nicest people I've ever met. He always spoke so highly of his wife and children, and you knew he loved them very much. Maurice will be greatly missed and never forgotten. The family will remain in my thoughts & prayers.
