I would like to share my thoughts and prayers for the family at this time of loss. I will always remember Mr. Moses' warm smile and kind words from my youth in Fulton. He would come to pick-up or deliver our dry cleaning, but he was also on a mission to pick up our spirits and to deliver the Good News of Jesus Christ! He will be dearly missed. Be encouraged, as he has touched so many more lives than mine. God bless you and keep you!
