5 months today, you went to your heavenly home. I miss you so much. I miss cooking your meals, washing your cloths, shopping together, watching TV, blessing our food together, praying together, having conversations. Missed you going to WV to visit our son, daughter -in-law, and grandsons. But, I know your spirit was with me. I take comfort inn knowing that "Absent from the body, is present with the Lord" (Corinthians 5:8). Love you forever.
John F. Moore Jr. left a message on June 16, 2020:
He wasn't faster than a speeding bullet, but he was quick to come to my defense. Unable to leap tall buildings, but could lift my spirits when life didn't make sense. He did not have the strength of a locomotive, but the size of his heart could crush any man. He faced all that the world could throw at him and always told us it was God's glorious plan. He didn't wear a cape, a mask, or have any super powers, But ask any of his friends, or family he was there in our darkest hour. So now he has gone to heaven, and in God's arms he will be. But this loving father was a superman to me. Happy Fathers Day Love you Pop's Johnny

Big Cuz was to much fun. I enjoy him every minute. My wife and son love him too. He made wife feel safe and Omar alway had fun. He school me on caring about family and working smart. I remember as kid watching him and his twin brother play basketball at Lincoln Center in Cincinnati . That was my induction to John back in the day. Him and brother could play some ball and they both was talking trash while they were playing and winning. My father had to get them up out of there because he didn’t want fight everybody in Lincoln Center because John and his brother beat everybody at the Center in hoop. He did his thing in everything. He had Confidence and a Loving heart. Big Cuz you be missed and never forgotten and thanks to you and Sheila for opening your home to me and my family. Love always. Rest in Power Big Cuz John Moore Sr. Watts family, Pearl, Lawrence & Omar. P.S. Omar still don’t Rock or Roll

Though there will be an aching void where you left, there’s also a shining light that you’ve transitioned on to a better place. We are left with so many great memories and will always honor your legacy and imprint on this family.

To Shelia, John Jr. and family my most memorable time with you Guys is when you all would come to Cincinnati for the Jazz festival, and stay overnight at Aunt Helens and at this particular time you all had gone to the festival but had know way to get back to Aunt Helen. So I just happen by... Aunt Helen said "Nanci" can you go pick up Shelia and John from the festival I said sure do you know where exactly, we had (know phones) available then.So I get there.... But what Aunti forgot to share was how many I would be picking up in a Volkswagon Beetle; so I said I think this will take a second trip for sure. John said know we can do this in one trip. I'm looking puzzle ...John pack everyone in my beetle with know problem. When we arrived back to the house, the look on Aunt Helen face was priceless, she said how did you get them all in that little car! I said, "I didn't John did. The moral of this story... this is a man who always look out for family and friends He will be miss but never forgotten. Shelia, his love for you will be in abundance forever. God Bless you, Love, Cousin Walter and Nanci Watts
