Tributes
"Jim was my second "Dad". He taught me how to plant tomatoes, and helped me with my algebra. He was a great Dad. He will be greatly missed."
"SHARON, I KNOW YOU WERE NOT READY FOR THIS, NO ONE EVER IS, BUT JUST BE SURE YOUR DAD IS IN A BETTER PLACE NOW. YOU HAVE MY DEEPEST SYMPATHIES."
"Dear Moore Family So sorry to hear of Jim's passing. I am visiting in Tucson and can't be there in person, but please know that I am thinking of you. My nephew and his family now live in your old house on Marshall St since my mother died. I remember your girls babysitting our girls. They are all married and have 5 children between them and a great granddaughter. Time passes so quickly. Ken has been gone 18 years next month. My second husband has been gone 11 years. Hope the rest of your family is doing well. Love and sympathy to you all. Marilyn (Silcock) Holland"
