Sending my sympathy to all of the "Moon"
family. Your Dad was a great man. He had a smile for everyone as long as I've ever known him. Memories of working for him in the ten years that I was a waitress reflects so many great times. He took much pride in his business and spoke so highly of his sons'. It was such a pleasure to have known "Tom". We were better known to each other as the "pip"!:) His nature and personality was always the same. Full of laughter, lots of fun. After he retired I would see him around and he never changed. We remenist over all those years and would always end with a joke or laughing! It was always a pleasure feeling like part of the family in those days at "Moon's Landing" :) Was the BEST Restaurant in town!
Live on in his memory. He would want that. If I wasn't in Florida I would be paying my respects to a great guy that loved his family.
God bless his soul,
as his memory will live on.
