Our mother loved Paso Robles with all her heart, from the day she was born, to the day she departed, and you continue to give it back to her more than she could ever imagine. Thank you all so very much. She truly loved you all.” The family plans to hold a celebration of life to honor Moye – more details will be provided when they are available.
