I was quite happy with my life, just the way it was. Had a great teaching job in Milwaukee and was registered at Univ. of Wisconsin for summer school to take the last couple courses needed to get my masters in education. The time had come to do just that. Then there was a knock on the door. It was Charles Moore. He was there to set me straight. I didn't need to get my masters that summer. Instead, the time had come to go to Chicago and get ready to be part of the Milwaukee Local Church Experiment starting in the fall. He must have been quite convincing, because I didn't go get my masters, I went to Chicago and became part of our Local Church Experiment. And that meant I had to switch to Bill and Patty's church, become Sunday School Superintendent in this new church, and meet some incredible people who were all part of this local church experiment. And this one knock on the door and encounter with Charles Moore was quite life changing indeed. In a few years I moved into the Milwaukee Religious House, then was off to Seoul, Korea, then to Chicago and the Student House, then Bontoa, then back to Korea, then New York City with all the glories of Training, Inc. That Charles Moore sure set my life spinning around. Thanks, Charles, for a great spin!! Phyllis Hockley
There has been a good deal of dialogue on the 2nd Generation forum about Charles Moore. Many of us wanted to find an appropriate way to remember and honor him and to express our concern and condolences to his family, especially his sons, Guy and Steve. Leslie Forbes had the idea of setting up a memorial fund at the Southern Poverty Law Center, an organization that addresses many of Charles' concerns. Leslie invited me to share the link to the memorial fund on this list in case anyone would like to join us: https://donate.splcenter.org/charles_moore Shelley Hahn On Mon, Jul 7, 2014 at 5:42 PM, George Holcombe via OE < oe@lists.wedgeblade.net> wrote:

Does anyone have snail mail addresses for Steve or Guy Moore where people can send cards or notes? Thanks. Shelley Hahn On Mon, Jul 7, 2014 at 5:42 PM, George Holcombe via OE < oe@lists.wedgeblade.net> wrote:
