So many fond memories of Moody. Probably the most memiorable was watching David during his Walk To Emmaus, and how it affected him. He's such a beautifully humble soul, and served Jesus and his congregation for so many years. I was so very fortunate to call him a friend and brother in Christ. Go be with Jesus, Moody we're only 5 minutes behind.... Love Ya, Zac Smiles
