I was saddened when I received the word of the passing of your loved one. However, I rejoice knowing that "Charlene" is a child of God and was a Good and Faithful Servant.

The Moore and Bibbs family send our deepest condolences to you and your family at this time. When Rev. Moore was pastoring Mt. Zion AME church in Gary, there was not a time that Charlene did not bless that church with her presence and her spirit. She definitely had a holy ghost filled relationship with God and it was evident. May God continue to keep you in your hour of sorrow. Our prayers are with you at this time.
