Maurice Louis Pinel Jr.

Will always remember Mo from his time at Mohawk Lanes in Rome, NY.

Mo had a very fun since if humor.i first encountered him at a party held for a tournament at Newmarket bowl.a genius he pioneered lane finishes,for the purpose of advancing the scoring ability in the Sport
of bowling.it was after that,he designed bowling balls
For the same purpose.RIP Maurice Louis Pinel jr

I met Mo back in the early 80's when I worked for Carter's Lane Service in N. Syracuse, NY. During my time while I was employed by the Lane Service, I met Mo. He went on different trips with us to refinish bowling lanes in the NY State area that had to be done late at night while no tournaments going on. I helped test the stickiness of the lanes by bowling, which I always loved. You were a great guy Mo. RIP my friend. And condolences to your family!

I met Mo when I was a teenager bowling at Mohawk Lanes. I moves to Virginia in 1987. I wanted to have a new ball drilled exactly the way Mo did one. Guys at the pro shop knew of Mo's handiwork! R.I.P Legend!

Thank you for all you did for us here on earth while on the lanes. Some of us, like me, only recently got to know who you were and the amazing contributions you so graciously made to the sport of bowling and our youth. Thank you and Godspeed!

I still have my Hammer 3D Offset (BTM Ball of the Year back in 97) When this Covid is under control I'll have to go bowl a game with it in honor of Mo. He's gonna be missed. Such a brilliant mind that will never be replaced in the bowling industry.

A very dear and close friend for the past 50 years. Thank you for sharing your Friendship and knowledge with me.

I met Mo in 1998 while working at Kegel in Sebring, FL. Mo and I spent a better part of a month working on recreating oil patterns that Steve and Lenny had been putting down using a Hudson Sprayer for the PBA. From that time on Mo and I stayed in very close contact sharing ideas and offering each other ideas on lane maint as well as patterns. I will miss those conversations. RIP Mo!

Found the picture that will be held in memory.

I was fortunate to meet Mo in the early 90's in NY and have connected with him at numerous times over the years at rollout and the Pro Shop classes. Always willing to listen and share his thoughts on layouts and ball reaction. Mo will be missed by everyone he helped along the way. RIP, Mo!

May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow.

In loving memory of a wonderful person. We will love you and miss you always.

Friendship transcends death. Memories made will never be forgotten and created a lasting impression on those they left behind. Everyone became a better person for having such a wonderful friend. I am better for knowing you, better for loving you, better for having met you. May you be as blessed in the next life, my friend, as I was in this one by knowing you. Truly blessed to have been called your Friend.

I never had the pleasure of meeting Mo personally. I first learned about Mo when he was promoting the og squach, and I followed him on line ever since. I have been bowling about 45 years and did not know anything about it really, until I started following Mo. He educated and taught me so very much. He always!!!!! Took the time and responded to every question and concern I had. I have asked him when he was coming to the St Louis area many times, because I really wanted to meet him and have him share his wealth of knowledge about bowling and everything that goes with it.. His passing was a shock to me and I felt a personal loss when I heard.. Mo will always be the Man.. to me. Thanks for all you have done for bowling and all you have taught me. It will never be lost. Deepest regrets to his family and friend..

Met the Legend "Mo" once in Rochester NY at his 2018 September seminar on "the New Reality of Ball Motion found him very friendly and open to questions unfortunately I have lost or miss place the picture he took with me will miss his guidance and help on everything bowling and also getting his invaluable advise on layouts he aided me a couple of this. Sorry for his loss for the family.

R.I.P. Mo, I just saw you last month here in Naples, Florida. My sincere condolences go out to the Pinel family.
