Our family was richly blessed by God's gift to us of J.B. Moseley - our husband, Dad, PaPa. He was a man of truth, love, honesty, a man of his word that could seal any deal with a hand shake, a wonderful provider for his family and his great sense of humor kept our world in laughter. Thru his example, all of our lives have been touched in a very special way. Thanks Dad for passing this wonderful gift to each of us! We love you – see you in Heaven.
