Doris, I would like to wish you a very merry Christmas. I know everyone is dealing with some type of emotion this holiday season. Whether its happiness, sadness (loss or loneliness), stress and strain, or just feeling lost! God is with you everyday, even when you dont want Him to be, need Him to be, or notice Him there! I am praying a great day for you and your family!

Dearest Doris, Lois, "Little" Johnnie and family:
Heartfelt thoughts and prayers are continually ushered up to God on your behalf during this season of bereavement. I have some very warm and fond memories of Mr. Johnnie from the first time I met him during my visits to Lakeland with Doris (during our college days). What I remember most is observing that Mr. Johnnie was truly a father who loved and adored his children. I appreciate the privilege and opportunity of being a part of his family life during my visits. May all of your memories comfort you in the days ahead when his presence will be so missed.
Love,
Robert & Annie Mott

Doris, you have my deepest condolences concerning the loss of your love one. This issue about death comes in three's: I don't even know where it came from. I do know it's not a biblical principle. And I also know everything on earth has its own time and its own season. There is a time for birth and death, planting and reaping, for killing and healing, destroying and building, for crying and laughing, weeping and dancing, for throwing stones and gathering stones, embracing and parting. There is a time for finding and losing, keeping and giving, for tearing and sewing, listening and speaking. There is also a time for love and hate, for war and peace. What do we gain by all of our hard work? I have seen what difficult things God demands of us. God makes everything happen at the right time. Yet none of us can ever fully understand all he has done, and he puts questions in our minds about the past and the future. I know the best thing we can do is to always enjoy life, because God's gift to us is the happiness we get from our food and drink and from the work we do. Everything God has done will last forever; nothing he does can ever be changed. God has done all this, so that we will worship him. Everything that happens has happened before, and all that will be has already been-- God does everything over and over again.
I hope these words are a comfort to you. I understand the pain in losing someone you love. I will be praying with you and your family.
Grace be with you,
Keith Resciniti

Dear Doris, Lois and the Entire Moore family, here's a song I would to share
at this time. Knock and the door shall be opened, I believe Bob knock and the door was opened. He is at rest now. Release him family and let him go.
Our prayers have all been answered
I finally have arrived
The healing that had been delayed
Has now been realized
No one's in a hurry
There's no schedule to keep
We're all enjoying Jesus
just sitting at his feet
If you could see me now
I'm walking streets of gold
If you could see me now
I'm standing tall and whole
If you could see me now
You'd know I've seen His face
If you could see me now
You'd know the pain's erased
You wouldn't want me to ever leave this place
If you could only see me now
My light and temporary trials
Have worked out for my good
To know it brought Him glory
Love you family,
Alexis Dobbins

Although I never met your father, it seems as if I knew Mr. Moore through you. Please know that although your loss is great, you were blessed with a kind, loving, caring, and responsible father and what he gave you will forever be a part of you who are.

Peace Doris. . .
The great peace of God which passes all understanding be with you all.
Ms. Pat Spencer informed me and others of the death of your father, Mr. Johnnie Moore.
Please accept my condolences, as memories of of your father gather around you, bringing peace and joy into your mourning.
In the most recent prayer book of Reformed Judaism, Mishkan T'Filah, are prayers beseeching God to remember, to remember love ones who have passed through time into eternity; and prayers reminding us to remember them, too. I personalize a couple of these for you and your family:
'MAY GOD REMEMBER forever your father and all your ancestors and relatives . . .
who have gone to their eternal rest.
May they be at one with the One who is life eternal.
May the beauty of their lives shine forevermore,
and may your life always bring honor to their memory.'
And:
"OUR THOUGHT'S TURN to those who have
departed this earth: our own loved ones, those whom
our friends and neighbors have lost, the martyrs of
our people whose graves are unmarked, and those of
every race and nation whose lives have been a blessing
to humanity. As we remember them, we meditate on
the meaning of love and loss, of life and death."
'May your memories of your father be for blessing.'
Peace . . . Shalom . . . Salaam . . .

ways unimaginable during your time of bereavement.

My heart and prayers go out to you and yours, Doris. For you and your sister....I know the pain and sadness in your heart. I know your spirit, if even for a moment, is saddened and asks "why?"
Both of my parents are with the Lord, rejoicing daily, living without tears, saddness or pain. Free from guilt or shame, they dance blameless before the Lord daily. Mother sings for Him. He LOVES to hear her hit the high and low notes, and smiles. Daddy serves for Him keeping things going, he stands with his hands folded in front and greets others. He LOVES to see Daddy's never ending acts of worship.
They both wait for me, excited, busy, serving, preparing, worshipping boldly....until I arrive. "What a day of rejoicing that will be!"
The saddness I felt when they departed, the saddness you feel now, will only change with time.
I remember driving home from a client's home about a month after my mother left. I started crying and screaming, "Mama! Mama!" And in such a soft sweet voice she said, "Don't cry. I'll see you in the morning." It changed my life.
So, all that to say this, your weeping may endure for a night, but joy comes in the morning. It's okay to feel sad, lost, hurt, even guilty and angry....for a moment. Weep for the nights you need to, but KNOW that not only will joy come in the morning, but you will see them in the morning!
I'm glad I took part in his 80th year of celebrating life. My love and prayers are with you. If you ever need ANYTHING.....
Be blessed,
Deni

Dear Doris,
I am very sorry to hear about the loss of your father. My father passed away several months ago at the age of 82, and I am certain that when someone suffers such a loss, it always remains with them in some form or another. I hope that memories of the good times you spent with him will provide at least some comfort. Take care, and our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.

Good morning my dear cousin,
Words cannot express how you must feel because i haven't been in the position of losing my father but i have experienced other losses. But i must say to you that the Lord knows what you are going thru and he knows how much you can bear and he said he wouldn't put more on you then you can bear. It's ok to shed tears know that you have fulfilled your duties as a daughter and that God is well pleased but on the other hand you can really have peace in and know that all the sacrifices that you have done will pay off and have paid off because you can be assured that your father appreciated everything that you and your sister have done to make sure that he had a peacful and assuring lasting moments with you all. He will be in your hearts as a legacy. May God Bless and continue to keep you and my family as you go thru your bereavement. Just a call away we are praying for you and we love you.
Much Love,

Oh my Dearest Doris ,
As I read this about your wonderful Dad, my tears began to flow for a man that I did not have the pleasure to know. But who I do know is a loving God who will guide your every step as you and your sister planned Mr. Moore's homegoing celebration, a caring savior Jesus Christ who will give you strength and courage and the Holy Spirit who is and will continue to be your comforter, counselor and guide through this most challenging time. Mr Moore has run the good race. He has put up the good fight. He kept his eye on the prize and now he is being rewarded in heaven, seated to right ox Jesus and one glorious day, we too will fly away, to be with Jesus all the live long days. To be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord. Be blessed in these coming moments, hours, days and weeks and if you ever need to just talk, I am hear to listen.
Peace and Blessings,

Though he's no-longer with you in body and the many, many that loved him because of how he touched them, he lives. Thus, he accomplished one more miraculous feat....eternity.

Doris,
I am very sorry to hear you lost your father. You are to be highly
respected for being his caregiver like you were. Not everyone will do that and I know he really
appreciated it and also I know that God is looking on you with high favor for doing so.
I say to also
that your whole family must be proud of you and it is very good when a father can leave this place
and go to Heaven and feel in his heart that he is proud of his child. Your father was very proud of
you and knowing he will be in Heaven means you can celebrate his passing, with grief, but knowing
where he is, and you will see him again, and you too feel very proud of him. God Bless,
Keeping you in my prayers,

Dear Doris, Lois & Lil' Johnnie,
I don't think we are ever prepared for the inevitable and I was terribly sadden when my Mom (Gloria) called to tell me that Uncle Bob had transitioned. I wanted to share with all my experience with Uncle Bob and our introduction of the 'Moore' family. My Dad (Freddie Hines) was so excited when he was connected to this side of his family. My Dad was always full of life but it seemed like when he connected with Uncle Bob, he went back in time - he had not found a cousin but they claimed each other as 'brothers and friends'. When they spoke on the phone or when he just spoke of Uncle Bob in general - he literally would just light up! It was the gleam you see in a child's eyes at Christmas (and we all know how my Dad loved Christmas!).
All of my father's blood brothers had passed many years before meeting Uncle Bob; but Uncle Bob more than filled all their shoes! We ALL truly loved him!!! When my father had his stroke -your father drove to Florence, SC immediately to be by our sides. When he realized the severity of the stroke, he would always check with my mom to see what she needed him to do that my father would have been taking care of, if anything - We were thinking Unbelievable!!! We were not used to anyone offering us anything because we were always the ones to offer - They were truly cut from the same cloth. They were two peas from the same pod - same mode of thinking, loving, and giving hearts. How blessed we were to have such great earthly fathers - great men of character!!! I'll sum this up by using a story my sister Valerie used to lift our brother Patrick's heart at the loss of our dear Dad: She explained that God had a Bus and when our loved one transitions, God sends the bus and it stops by and it is their time to get on the bus to go to their heavenly home to live with God (Patrick understands God is in heaven and that is a GOOD place :-) So shortly after Dad passed and he got on the bus, his caretaker Ms. Mary passed and Patrick said "she's on the bus!" (LOL) and we all said , yep Pat, she is on the bus, Dad needed someone to keep him in line (LOL). We told Patrick, Dad is having a great time, his mom, dad, brothers, a sister and some friends are ALL on the bus so just imagine how happy Daddy is? He just smiled and laughed until he cried tears of joy for our Dad. Well, as of November 2nd our Dad is ecstactic because now his buddy, cousin and last brother, Uncle Bob is ON THE BUS!!! That makes me smile.
Sadden by your(our)loss - I am grateful that God allowed me (my family) the priviledge to know and love Uncle Bob - He will truly be missed and my heart once again feels a void like it did when my own father passed. My prayers are with you all that God will give you strength to get through this period of pain - 'This to Shall Pass' but his memory will live Forever!
God Bless - I love you all dearly!

Doris,I went on line to listen to his favorite songs.. then I removed it from my mind..hoping in some small way not to hear of Uncle Bob's transition. I am glad Chauncey was able to sing ... I just wanted to reflect today on all the wonder of this grand human being..Uncle Bob... Of all my father's(Freddie's) siblings.. Uncle Bob was truly his brother too..and we felt it from the moment they met. I am grateful to be a part of your lives..even though I don't see or talk to you as much as other family members do... I love you and thank you for being a very important part of our lives. I wish I could have been there with you... I am praying for you today..I know Uncle Bob is just fine.. I know Daddy is soooo happy. So let's find a place in our heart to celebrate with them ... knowing there is a place called forever... where there is great joy ... Love Always,

Doris,
Please accept my late condolences. Usually, during the week that I have several doctors apopointments, I don't check my emails, as a result, I only read you email November 8.
I am truly sorry for your loss, my heart goes out to all of you, and I remain...
Your loving cousin,

Dearest Doris, Lois & Lil' Johnny,
Val and I attempted to contact you all prior to the service for Uncle Bob. Unfortunately we were unable to attend but we were there in spirit. We heard the serviced was really nice, that Uncle Bob looked great for his Homegoing Celebration! He would have expected no less :-).
Our prayers are still with you - we are greatful that Mom, Patrick & Chauncey could be there and that Chauncey participated in the services (Dad would have been so proud).
Take Care & Keep a Prayer,
Valerie & Michele
