Sons of couple killed in pedestrian crash remember parents as ‘the greatest’

Just days after their passing, through tears of grief, Michael and Patrick Moore reflect on their parents’ lives.

“I think they were the greatest,” said son Michael Moore.

The two were staples of the West Palm Beach community.

Terry Moore was a pediatric nurse for 35 years, and Michael Moore a deacon at Haverhill Baptist, as well as a baseball coach for more than 45 years.

Their sons say they never met a stranger, and would always do their best to help however they could.

“Loving, caring, bend over backwards to do whatever you needed,” said son Patrick Moore. “They would drop what they were doing to come and put you first no matter what circumstance.”
