As my mother's younger brother, I had the privilege of having Uncle Moses not only be a part of my life, but add color to it with his energy, laughter, and faith. From my earliest memories of him taking me and my sister to Sunday school to teenage memories of him taking us to Great America and then as adults so generously sharing his American Airlines Buddy Passes with me and my husband, he was a generous and loving uncle. I will miss his joy, silly sense of humor, love for his family, and his strong devotion to God. I know he is happy because he told me so. His last words to me were, "Mija, I had a great life. I have been blessed. I follow the will of God." I love you, Uncle Moses. I miss you. Thank you for being my uncle and my friend. And please give a hug and kisses to my daddy, my brother, and Aunt Adriana when you see them. xo

Moses greeted us when we moved here from New York with great love and welcome 4 years ago. We enjoyed always talking to him and listening to his loving words of his children and grand kids.
He remembered our birthdays and anniversary! I sent him his birthday cards. He was so easy to talk to. I will always see him sitting in the first pew at church. We will miss him every day. We loved him. Keep his memories in your hearts.
Love,
Lu Ann and Doug Reed

Hello my name is Rachel Goldman and I'm the niece of Uncle Moses. I loved him very much I'm sad. He was a very charismatic man who told it like he saw it. I'll miss our occasional Sunday talks. He was a devout Christian who loved his family and would do anything for his children. Goodbye Tio say hi to my parents on heaven and I'll see you when my time comes
