I met Moses while we were both in rehab in Florida in 2015. He was an inspiration and beloved friend. I am so proud to have known this wonderful man.

My sincere condolences to you and your family. I know that this is a most difficult time. "Doc" as we affectionately called him at Greenview Park was one of my biggest cheerleaders when I started playing at Greenview. He would say, Marvell you can do it, when I didn't think that I was getting any better. Thank you to a great man, a great legend, a great role model who will be truly missed. I pray God's strength and comfort for you and your family.
