Karen, Keith and Family, my heart grieves to hear the lost of your mom. She was and continues to be a beautiful woman in my sight. The love, warmth, and genuine compassion she possessed could be felt by all. She deposited some of herself, In me and I’m forever greatful and I thank God for putting her in my life. May God give you the strength to get through this and when the grief is lifted may her spirit forever live in you.
The Family of Delphina
A very inspiring lady. She was the second African American to graduate the nursing program at Ocean County College in the 1960s. A trail blazer who was a very respected Caregiver. Sincere condolences to the family I know she is already missed. Sleep in peace.

Mother Delphine Moore was loved and her memory will be cherished by many. I truly will miss her impromptu calls to say “hello.” My sincere condolences to Karen, Keith, the entire family, and to the Mt Olive Church family.
Karen, Keith and Family: My heart is saddened to hear about the loss of your beloved mother. For over more than 40 years I have looked up to your mother and father as true pillars of the community in New Jersey as well as for the great works they achieved in the Detroit area before moving to Neptune many, many years ago. Truly you have been blessed to have such beautiful, loving, strong-in -the faith parents. I always will remember that your mom once told me her Anniversary was on Christmas, so that she and your dad could always be together, she said it was an eternal commitment in celebration of their commitment to their union as well as their faith. I took that so literal that on the Day Christ was born, they paid homage and honor to share in their sacred union through a commitment of love to share eternally….. thus a desire to be together with Christ …was always the goal…what an awesome legacy you have to cling to!
Now in this day they shall be reunited in that same eternal hope as it is in the divine will of God Almighty He, the creator has come to reclaim His time with Delphine for those eternal moments. Therefore, while you know her as as mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, mother-in-law; but the Father knows her as Disciple, faithful servant, child.. She is His and while we were all blessed to have shared some of this time with her on Earth, be us ever grateful now… that she lays in bosom of our Savior, where the righteous are rewarded with pain-free rest, shrouded in glory and comfort, reunited with her beloved George AND …wanting nothing, but to lay down the burdens of this life and receive her many crowns. As the life of Delphine Moore ascends from her earthly vessel to her spirit life I offer you the opportunity to REJOICE, GIVE THANKS, OPEN YOUR HEART TO PEACE & COMFORT, as She will surely hear the words…. well done my good and faithful servant…enter into the joy of your master…. Amen. May God Bless you and know that you are in my prayers.
With Love Always, Margaret Keyes-Howard & Family, Farmington Hills, Mi
