Visiting with Bob and Diann was at the top of my list of PEOPLE TO SEE when I was back in the midwest in August 2011. I am so grateful that I was able to connect with them.

Mr. Moore was my favorite teacher at Moline High School. He was very kind to me & understanding. I still vividly remember the day that he made sure that there would be no bullying or disrespect shown in his classroom. It was awesome!! Thanks, Mr. Moore, I will always remember you!

I was a classmate of Bob's at Augustana College, and a basketball team mate with him there for one year(he was much more skilled than I). I have many fond memories, especially of his warm, calm demeanor, his friendship and kindness to others.

Dear Ashley, although we have not spoken since high school, I would like to send you and your mother my deepest sympathies about your father. He was such a wonderful and kind person. He always treated us as adults even though we were small children.

I was so sad to read of Mr. Moore's passing. I recognized his picture instantly. He was one of those teachers you just liked because he was so nice, not easy, but nice. He had a wonderful smile. I am so sorry for your loss.

Diann,. and Ashley,

Donna and I were saddened to read of Bob's passing. I think I last saw Bob and Ashley at Bob Reyser's visitation.

I will always remember Robert as a kind, honest, yet firm competor. It was a joy to know him and even though I havent seen him as
