Dear Karen, Just want you to know that I just found out about Mack, and my family has you in our hearts and prayers...I, like most of our school friends, considered you two an "institution" and you set a wonderful example of enduring love that many search for but never find...just know that as nobody really could see where one of you left off and the other began, he is still with you and always will be!! I was proud to call Mack my friend and all our lives are a lot poorer without him - but I bet ya that my Daddy and Jack were ready with a fishing pole when they heard he was coming!! I have always thought so much of you as well, Karen, and please know you and the family are ever in the prayers of my family!! Love, Dorenda

One of the most fulfilling times of my life was coaching at NGH. Mack was part of the memories that will always be with me. Mack was an asset to the team and later in life was a friend to many.

Karen, my thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. May God's love and the love of friends comfort you during this trying time.

When I think of Mack Moore what comes to mind is the beautiful blue convertible Buick Skylark with Cragar mags that he used to roar around the neighborhood in with his pretty wife Karen that was his High School Sweetheart back then. I am very lucky to have spent time with Mack and I cherish the memories. Our thoughts and prayers goes out to his family.

I light this candle for the life of Mack and the unfailing love he had for his wife, Karen, his children and pets..he loved unconditionally all of these things, including his Mom, Marion and his brother. The days ahead will be difficult, the very least I can say is keep God and family in your midst and know Mack will live on in your hearts, God, please bless you all. Suzanne W.
