I want to offer my deepest condolences to the Wife, Children, Siblings and Family of Mr. Chubby Moore. I met "my friend" while working at WalMart in Blytheville and I didn't know him from anything other than just walking up to me and saying "You sure are UGLY!" LOL And from that day forward, (if it makes any sense)I looked so forward to hearing those words, but with the biggest and brightest smile ever! He even introduced me to his wife as his "UGLY FRIEND!" I truly love meeting "Good People" and Mr. Chubby truly proved himself to be just that a Good Man! I will miss seeing my friend at church, but I know to be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord. Mr. Chubby, you're now gone, but you will never be forgotten. I am sending Prayers of strength and comfort to the entire Moore Family. Rest In Heavenly Peace My Friend Mr. Chubby. Love always, your UGLY friend. Denice "Dee-de"Jackson

To the Moore family especially Ann my condolences to you and the rest of the family. The first time I met Chubby it was a homegoing service in Texas. He came ask us could he get a big man slice of cake for the road. We said sure cake the slice he threw his napkin over the rest of the cake we all burst out with laughter. Every year after that I would send a cake at Thanksgiving for his family. He will be missed by all but he is being return to his Heavenly Father. So Let not your heart be trouble, cause we all know he is in our Heavenly Father house. Carole Jackson Austin, Texas

My condolences to my Moore family. Love and prayers for you. Chubby was my adopted Big Brother. When he came to Rockford,IL for a while. He would give a hard time all the time. He would always tickle me until it hurt. He would make me so mad. But then there were times he'd take for a ride on his motorcycle. Over the years we would talk on phone occasionally just to check on each other. And he would always seem to call me when I needed my big brother. I will truly miss him.
