I Love You and Miss You, Baby Boy. Sleep on and Take Your Rest." I will plant them and not pluck them up. Then I will give them a heart to know Me, that I am the Lord; and they shall be my people, and I will be their God, for they shall return to Me with their whole heart". Jeremiah 24:7

I knew him when he was a young NCO (E5-E6) and I was an even younger Private. He was extremely professional, didn't accept excuses, and at the same time had an easy laugh and was joyful. He was a great example of leadership and someone to emulate. I'm sorry to hear of his passing.

Last month I pinned on LTC and at my promotion ceremony I thanked all the NCOs that got me here and the first and most important of them all was Ben Moore. The first NCO that took me under his wing and made sure I wasn't ate up. To Mary and the family you guys are still in my thoughts everyday and he is with me everyday I put on this uniform.

I been out of touch with Cpl Moore yes I said Cpl because this is the rank that he held when we were in the same company in Germany and then we both went to fort hood I truly owe the start of my military career to Him when I was a Pvt he took me under his arm and lead me in the Wright direction. I ran into him as SSG out in NTC and he was the op force and again he helped me with good sound advice. I only wish I could've served under him after he made CSM. Maybe in another play because where ever he is he is going too used for his best potential to LEAD FROM THE FRONT. I realy miss this MAN

Gone but not forgotten Uncle Benny. If I knew it was just this easy to write on your book here I would have been here. I did make it an obligation to see you a couple months ago when I visited Andre in DC. Such a beautiful scene however I wish you were meeting me there in the flesh. I do plan on going back soon though and for sure I will make it back to spend a little time. Love you always and forever. Your niece

My son served under CSM Benjamin Moore in the 3rd ID in Iraq. He called me several times from Iraq and I was impressed that he gave me his cell # and e-mail address. I never had the pleasure of meeting him but I had comfort knowing that the lives of not only my son, but all the other soldiers were in Ben's capable hands. He called me one time and said " Tom, I hate to ask you cause I am a professional soldier"! I interrupted him and said " Ben, you only have to say what you need"! He replied" they only thing we need is an American flag"! "We have no flag for our troops to salute in the morning and evening"! I went the next day and purchased a huge American flag and took it to our church and had the members write words of encouragement in the stripes. He later sent me pictures of the young soldiers reading the scriptures written on this flag! The last time I talked to him he was in Hawaii and then my son called me and told me my Friend had died! Thanks Ben for all you did for everyone who knew you. God Bless you and your Family. Lt. Tom Brown

Joined the military soon after graduation. Served his county for 26/27 years. Our mother taught us to work hard for what you get. How proud I were of you being a very successful man. Andre' always looked up to you, and love you so much, thank you very much for all you have done.We all love you and you will always be in our memories.Happy Birthday in Heaven Benny, just think, you would have been 48 years old!

Hello Benny, I know it seem like all your sibilings had forgot your birthday, but that not so. I was in Savannah with your neice Paige which were very sick, but she is improving. I told her today is Uncle Benny birthday, he would have been 47.
The holidays are fast approaching, inspite of, we have to give thanks for what GOD has already done, and will continue to do in our lives. Not a day go by without thinking of you, I love you and miss you. Your kids are doing the last time I spoke with their Mom. I'm quite sure Marcalus is tall as can, and Krystal"Krissy" is 18 now. So rest in the Lord.

This a day to reflect on the memories of my baby brother the late CSM BENJAMIN MOORE JR. I think of when you was a little boy you thought you could do everything we did, and you almost did. God always had a plan for your life.In Mar 2009 we were talking about going back to Iraq, I started crying and you said this will be the last time you will be deployed, and you know what you was right. I miss you CSM BENJAMIN MOORE JR! This come from my heart. There was 18 of us, now there's 16 left (Ben Jr April 2009_ Rachel Ann Little May 2012)RIP

I served with CSM Moore twice. First while he was working for the 11Mike school at fort Benning and I was a brand new Private. Next he was my Squad leader in Germany with A Co 4/16 INF as well as Operations Desert Shield/Storm. He and I were both strong willed individuals and we continuously bumped heads. But I remember him as being fair and I learned a lot from him. I was saddened to find out that he had passed. RANGERS FORWARD!

CSM Moore,
I don't know why but this morning I heard your voice while taking the APFT. I remember you always coming up to the G-3 Air Office on Ft. Shafter and bugging me about how I did on my PT Test. You will be forever missed and never forgotten. Make sure they are keeping up with their Physical Fitness up there. I'll see you again one day....just not yet!!!!

Please know that just as your loved one remains in your hearts and minds; his sacrifice, and that of your family, remains with the people he died defending. Words cannot express the gratitude we feel for his bravery and selflessness, or the heartache we feel for your loss. God bless and keep you always.

I'll never forget how much you believed in a good soldier! When I was a young 18 year old, away from home back in 1999, you were the best Platoon Sargent a young man from Michigan could have had! When I was that young I was looking for a good mentor and good wisdom! You were a leader and a mentor and your words wisdom and guidance has helped me be what I am today! You inspired me to push farther and pick myself up when I was down! I will never forget when you helped me get my Expert Infantry Badge by keeping the Judge busy while I did my last challenge! You were a great man! Now, I am a successful Detective, a successful father, and a proud man! I hope I can keep using the motivation you taught me! Thank you Sargent!
