Dear Kathy and the "Moore Girls," We were so sorry to hear about Dave. Aunt Dee called us after she heard from Kristy. We are going to try to stop in on Sunday afternoon, but our thoughts are with you right now. We have been reminiscing about the fun everyone used to have at H&H, and what a happy guy Dave was. I am very sorry I did not write to you guys last year (or the year before!), which I meant to every time I saw Ginny at Woodview (I do senior health screenings there). I would always drive home from Newaygo and compose a letter in my head about what an important role you all played in my growing up experiences. You were just like family, and I will always remember those fun and crazy times. I'm sad I couldn't share that with Dave, but I'm sure he can hear me heaven! Take care, sincerely, Pokey, Robin and Lauren Walicki

Dear Kathy and family, My prayers are with you at this difficult time in your lives,I will always remember days as a young girl, playing among the apple trees in the MOORE orchards,where my dad and mom picked apples. Dave would drive around on the tractor or high low ,picking up the crates as they filled them. I can still see his smile and curly hair as he was then. recently our paths crossed again,under very different circumstances. His hair was no longer curly but he was the same gentle and kind person I remembered. You were all wonderful caregivers for him during his final months and I am grateful that i was able to get to know you all.take time for yourselves to heal, cherish your memories. sallie mount r/n, continu-care
