Moss and Peg, rest in peace. You’re the best cousins ever and we so enjoyed all our wonderful adventures and trips together throughout the years. Moss, cuz, thanks for being so instrumental in saving my life, over 40 years ago. I’ll always remember Union, NE days when we were kids at our Ganna’s.

Moss was a special friend who went out of his way to always make you feel special as well. His humor, generosity, and love of life will be sorely missed. Losing both Peggy and Moss this past year has been particularly sad, but knowing they are both home with each other is a blessing of joy and peace. I am thankful that Moss and Peggy enriched both me and my dearly departed wife, Judy’s lives in so many shared experiences. Rest in peace, good friend!
