Dear Mary Beth,
I am sorry at this late date to hear of Ed's death. You and he were always so gracious when I joined time with Barbara & Gerry and you and Ed. From observing you and Ed at Robert E. Lee from my high school days in Cedar Bayou and through the years in your careers, I know you both made a great difference in more lives than you can count. May your memories of all your wonderful years be of great comfort to you at this time.
With sincere sympathy,
Pat Clayton Deckert

Dear Family,

You mean so much and I grieve for you. I had Mr. Moak in junior school, and all the students loved him so much. He touched so many with his humor. Mary Beth, Kristen, and Carolyn, thanks for sharing your dad with me.

Dear Mary Beth, 

I was very saddened when I read about the death of my friend and colleague, the very fine man you married. He was a colleague, first as a fellow teacher, and then as the registrar to whom i could go when a student of mine had problems with enrollment. You may remember that once or twice I was partnered with him to share rides to and from the prisons in the Huntsville area and beyond. Those rides were memorable because we exchanged stories, trying to top each other, but the ones I enjoyed the most were his stories about the escapades ""perpetrated"" by teammates on the football team. I truly enjoyed his company. I valued him as a friend. I knew he was better than most of us. I am sad he's gone, but I also know that he is where he wants all of to be one day. Please receive my most sincere condolences.

Dear Mary Beth,

I'm sad to learn of Ed's death. I have such sweet memories of both of you from when we were all young teachers at Highlands Junior High. I have been writing my teaching memoirs, and those years at Highlands were such rich ones that shaped my life in marvelous ways. You and Ed were a big part of that time for me.

Bert and I both send our love to you and your family.

Mary Beth and family, please accept my deepest sympathies in your loss. Ed was my teacher, as was Mary Beth, at Highlands Junior High. What great and generous teachers you both were. I remember both of you so well. I pray peace and comfort for all of Ed's family. With great regard for you both, Beverly Threadgill

Ed was one of the first people I met at Lee College when I started teaching here in 1989. He was a generous man who instantly made me feel welcome, and I have never forgotten that. He will be greatly missed by his former colleagues.

To Mary Beth and Family, Like Johnette, I am so sorry to learn that Ed has died. He was the best resource and most experienced and knowledgeable administrator for me as a new hire. I joined Lee College in 1991, shortly before he retired, and worked closely with him as Public Relations Director, also responsible for recruitment, the Hispanic and the Black Educational Access Committees and all community events including the college Day/Night Program and Chamber events like trade shows. He was funny, brilliant and treated me and everyone with respect. He knew the college and student services inside-and-out and understood the importance of relationships with students, school districts, other colleges and balanced those relations with the very technical aspects of the law. 

 He was a never-to-be-replaced mentor and guide. I am honored to have known him and to have learned from him. And he will always be in my heart. AND...he will forever by, ""Mr."" Ed Moak to me!

Mary Beth and family, I am so sorry to hear of Ed's death. He was one of my mentors when I first came to Lee College. His experience, advice and lots of humor served me well in my career. I know he loved you all as you did him. He will rest in peace.

He was a great person and educator, I was privileged to have him as a teacher and professor he truly made an impact on my life.I know that he will be deeply missed.My deepest sympathy to the family.

Dear sweet Moak family, I am so very sorry for your loss. Mr. Moak was so wonderful, witty and silly. He will greatly be missed by everyone. Thank you for allowing me to be a part of so many family memories when Kristen and I were younger. May God Bless you all during this time. He's now entertaining the Angels, no doubt! GiGi
