Without all the cruel negative input this truly is a sad outcome after what happened. For him to pass while his daughter being incarcerated and for who to live with him passing while so. She truly will have to live with this mistake the rest of her life. Lord God be with them

Hopefully the town will get their money back sorry for the family that wasn't involved.

How about we let the family grieve without the snide comments? People worried about their tax dollars in light of this are heartless.

Are you kidding? He was equally culpable.

RIP I didn't know you but forgiveness is the greatest thing we can do as a person. It sounds like a lot of people in this area need to remember all the mistakes they or I'd bet my life on it a family member have made or are still making.

We are sorry for family not involved but our tax dollars are gone. Our water is bad with rust and lead. Our ditches have been let grow up and clogged.

All that are bashing the Moore family are sick! This man just lost his life and his family now lost a father grandfather and husband! Meanwhile all you want to complain about is the towns money! The Moore family are great people! Believing the media before you even know the real story is why people live the way they do now based on hear say! One persons mistake does not need to be held over top of the families name when it has nothing to do with him! Just know while these people lost. Great man in their life you will sin for what you have said! Your worried about the towns money meanwhile the poor little girl (Lexi) not only lost her mother and had a father that was never there she has now lost her poppop! Throwing dirt on someone's name does not make you better than anyone! It just shows you have no respect for others or yourself! Prayers for the family who just lost a very important man!

I don't know the gentleman or family but have glanced at some previous post on here or there. Didn't pay much attention because it didn't involve me. I also started to make a comment similar to yours. I agree with you 100%, not the time or place for the local heartless turds to come out. Sad when you think it will surface before it does. I was born and raised locally, and my brethren never let me down. They come through even when you don't need them. Lol

When someone passes-no matter what they have done in life-directly or indirectly...family members, friends and some in communities are going to grieve. Please let the family do this and keep rude comments off of here. I am not saying what happened to the town of Pittsville is right in anyway...I live in Pittsville so I know all to well about the high quarterly bill and what happened, but if anything think of the his daughters' daughter...a child now lost once more.

Don't be ridiculous. Just because someone points out the bad behavior of others can no way equate to having no self respect. The opposite is true. You are the one who is lacking. How you can defend someone who had to be chased by others for money he owned because he had the bad habit of wanting others to think he was rich. Many a small businesses had to chase him and take him to court and some still haven't been take. Save your holier then thou self righteousness because it's not becoming and off base. And for you to think they are "great people" only shows what a lowlife you are! Calling stealing from tax payers a "mistake." You are disgusting! Absolute filth yourself!

Again I didn't know the man or what may have occurred but to be so miserable and be so bitter much be a terrible way to go through life. Nobody said they are great people I think what is being stated is that they are human and like us all we fall short. It must be something to go through life so perfect and free from mistakes. But what kind of jackass intentionally tries to degrade a person after they've passed away?? Get a life A••••••

Sad to read this. We don't live in pittsville, but my children had an opportunity to meet him. He was very proud of his town and it showed in the way he told my children stories about the pictures in the town building.

As far as his daughter and what she did..let's just say some of the people in pittsville live in glass houses, and you know the rest.

Everyone with a negative attitude to disgrace somebody after they have passed instead of going to the man's house and saying what you wanted to say in person to him that's weak and pathetic! It is absolutely absurd that you feel the need to use this time to show your childish ways. At least give this man some respect and shiw some compassion to his family! You all should be ashamed. It's unfortunate this day and time we have computer and accessibility to be able to hide behind a without naming Who You Are! Understand this...look in your closet at your family I'm sure you can dig up something that you wouldn't want anybody to know it's unfortunate that you all have found a way to describe your own self by posting what you have! I was always told "If you live in a glass house don't throw stones".

How pathetic that a bunch of wicked atheists have nothing better to do with their time than to spew HATE. The world would be a much better place without them in it.

to all the negative commenters on here get out of your trailer and go get a job

Only on a blog would someone post such nasty "condolences" anonymously. Rot in hell Joe, as that was your intent with the post. You can't let your animosity towards ones you don't like, even after they're dead. I will be posting about you, anonymously of course, on your nemesis's blog, when you pass away. It will be justice, and it won't be nice. As the old saying goes, what goes around, comes around. Your day is a coming....like a steamroller, you can't stop it.

9:51, Awe, another anonymous wussy threatening my life. My intent is to publish the news, of which we did so on this article while no one else did. Some people liked Denver, some people did not. Some people like me, some people do not. I'm not here to make friends, wussy.

Mr. Wussy, do come back on January 1st and see what our traffic is. Then go ask the EBT Blogger to post his hits. Of course that won't happen because we do in a week what he does in a YEAR.

So go there and scream at the top of your lungs, NO ONE IS LISTENING.

The only thing wrong are those who for whatever insane reason think you still can't tell the truth about someone just because they died. Such dishonesty in the world. You tell the truth about someone whatever the circumstances and to say you must or have to or should show "respect" because they have died is beyond idiotic and only proves to show how low some people are. You speak the truth all the time no matter the circumstances.

11:25...thank you for verbalizing my position so much more eloquently than I did. My thanks. I get so tired of these irrational, piery inspired emotional fools. The Enlightenment is still the path to follow. Joe...thank you for providing a platform for voices.

I don't think hatred is being spread. While sorry for the family loss, the taxpayers, lions club and cemetery have supported him financially for years. The town finances have come out for the most part showing missing funds. The lions club building was put under the town with no public hearing and used for their family events with taxpayer money putting a roof on it and other repairs. I would guess one of the local churches would take over the cemetery. As said in another post just look at our water and ditches.

We all have sinned. And we are not him or his daughters judge. May this family live in peace with all the wonderful memories that they had with this man. After all it was a husband a father and a grandfather. May he rest in peace.

Nice posting the kids name, real classy. And if her mother really loved her Mayne she shouldn't have been a thieving piece of trash.

Denver was good person and great family man. He took on job at Pittsville and put his heart and soul into that, most people wouldn't take this job because of all BS that goes with it. I knew him for 27 years and all I saw was man that try to make this town nice place to live. Even at the end, Denver was working for the community instead of taking care of himself.










Anonymous said...

I agree with "Dale". Denver Moore put his heart and soul into the town of Pittsville. He was always willing to help the community. To the people who are complaining about the shape to the water, ditches, etc. in the town of Pittsville, "GET OFF YOUR *** AND GET TO A TOWN MEETING!". Better yet run for town council and get the work done that you want done for your town if care so much.

May he rest peacefully and his family stay strong! Reguardless of what anybody thinks the past can't be changed and the only thing that can be done now is hope and pray for a brighter future for our town!
