I wanted to send out a quick note of thanks and gratitude for all the kind words, stories and incredible fellowship we had in honor of my Dad's life. It meant so much to me and our family that each of you took the time to support our family during this time in so many ways. Dad was so blessed to have each of you in his life and he would have been so thrilled to see everyone from his childhood through to his grandchildren all in one place over this last weekend to celebrate his life. May God Bless each of you!Kasie Meryman Brazell

Moose and my husband Lucius were lifelong friends. Along with their other Bishop Byrne friends and wives, we celebrated holidays and traveled together and shared so many happy times. Moose was the quiet one of the group. I remember him always silently observing and quietly chuckling as we were all constantly joking and laughing. And he was a good friend to have - many times coming to help with small repairs at our home or office. Rest in peace old friend. Donna Cormier

I worked with "Moose" for 10 years at Texaco Chemical/ Huntsman until he retired. I was the 3 women hired in the instrument Dept in 1988. Moose trained me on how to be a First Class instrument person. I never forget anything he said about how to work on instrument meters. He always carried a screw drive in shirt pocket, And he would ask the Central Console Operator what does the instrument meters supposed to read.... He would take out his screw driver and set that meter to read what the central Operator wanted it be. Rest in Peace Moose Yo Dickerson

I worked with him for 30 hrs and was in Bishop Byrne with him my last 2yrs there. Moose was a good instrument tech. He wouldn’t let a problem get the best of him no matter how long it took him to solve it. He and I visited each other after we retired. I really enjoyed being with and knowing him, it was really a pleasure. I will miss him very much. Herman Miller

I worked with "Moose" about 10 years at Jefferson/Texaco Chem. May he rest in peace! We had lots of conversations and he was a thinker, and quite a character. I know he will be missed.
