Dr. Moore, your smile and great heart knowledge will be missed. It was in March 2014 that you said I couldn't leave the hospital until more test were run. The results of those test was a triple bi-pass. You saved my life. I can now continue to travel and see God's beautiful country with my wife. Our prayers are with the family. God be with you all Larry and Lorna Emmons

DR.Moore your smile will be missed, while sitting in cardio/neuro with me viewing echos, or chatting about life, in 38 years in my career you were a very humble Dr. that will be deeply missed.

Dr.Moore was a great Doctor and friend, if you ever had a question about anything Dr. Moore would find the answer. I remember him telling me about his trip with the family to see plymouth rock he was so excited to show me the pictures of the kids next to the rock. Him and I had lots of conversation, about the children and how the house was coming along, and the different lemons he had that he would bring into the dept of cardio/neuro and share with us. He will be deeply missed, he will always hold a special place in my heart as he was a wonderful Dr. and a great friend. nicola chin

Dr. Moore was the cardiologist that always made the staff feel like he was one of us! Dr. Moore spoke about his children and of course Nancy. We had the privilege of meeting them when they came to the hospital to visit and at our Cardio Neuro Christmas Party! Dr. Moore would share his passion in the work he was doing with genealogy and learning more about his families history. Dr. Moore would bring lemons from the trees in the property so when of our staff could make us lemons cookies! Dr. Moore will be truly missed and he has gone too soon! Prayers to Nancy, the children, and all of the family!
