Dear Moseley Family,
Please accept my heartfelt condolences on Dr. Moseley's passing. I feel privileged to have worked with him during Physicians Underwriting Committee meetings. He was wonderful to work with - so knowledgeable and accomplished yet at the same time kind, funny and always ready to explain medical issues to a layperson. I used to tell him that he should write a book about his life and experience as a doctor, as he told great stories. He was a remarkable, extraordinary person and physician. Your family is in my thoughts and prayers - may your memories bring you comfort. Sincerely, Mary Lyon

Dear Moseley Family,

I was so sorry to hear the news of Dr. Moseley's passing! I had not seen him in several decades but he was a real presence in my life when I was a youngster growing up around the corner from the old San Bernardino County Hospital. I lived on Oakhurst Drive and attended Bradley Elementary School with Bruce Moseley. Dr. Moseley and family lived in one of the cottages on the grounds of the hospital along Gilbert Street next to the old Juvenile Hall. I can recall vividly the chicken coop that was situated near their cottage and next to the tall green wooden fence that separated their living compound and Juvenile Hall. Some chickens were allowed to wander the area and Bruce and I would search for eggs that were hidden by some of the hens. Dr. Moseley was an intern and then a Resident Physician at the time. I think that I recall that he was Chief Resident for a time. Occasionally, Bruce and I would visit the lobby of the hospital to buy candy bars at the "snack counter." I remember Dr. Moseley walking through the lobby with his hospital greens on and seeing us. He looked at Bruce with a big smile and said "Hi squirt!" Whenever, I saw Dr. Moseley around the hospital grounds he was cheerful! This must have been hard to do because in those days interns and Residents worked incredibly long hours at the hospital (no pagers or cell phones). No sleep! I surmise that Dr. Moseley was cheerful because he loved what he was doing!

My mother Dolores Street was a nursing student and then an RN at County hospital. Her best friend was Jacque Lucas, a nurse in the ER at County. Both said that "Mo" was a great guy and very humble and down to earth! He was great fun to work with because of his sense of humor! My Mom said that Dr. Moseley delivered all of Jacque's kids.

I wanted to extend my deepest sympathy and condolences to you all. Take comfort in the fact that Dr. Moseley made a huge impact on his community and friends. How proud you must be of him and his great quality of character!

Warmest Wishes,

Chuck Street

What began as a business relationship 25 years ago quickly became a very special, loving relationship with Doc and Bobbie, our Brother and Sister in Christ. We cherish all the wonderful times we shared traveling together, what fun we had!! I will miss our phone calls, your voice, your advice, sharing the happenings in our lives (and bragging about our childen & grandchildren), thanking God for all His blessings and mercies He so graciously bestowed upon us. Only our Lord knows how blessed we are to have you in our lives. II Corinthians 5:8

While Dr. Kaye Moyer attended LLUMC to complete her residency in anesthesiology, I was recruited to San Bernardino by St. Bernardine Medical Center to start a practice. But despite their best intentions the hospital's administrative staff was unable to close the deal so I started looking for other employment. A few days later I got a call from Dr. Richard Moersch (may he also rest in peace) at St. B's - he knew a guy who was looking to retire and wanted to make sure his patients would be well cared for. Dr. Moersch introduced me to Dr. Moseley on a Thursday afternoon. On Friday we shook hands and I started working with him in the office the following Monday (Feb. 1992). It did not take me long to realize that I had very big shoes to fill. Dr. Moseley was the doctor we all wanted to be. Smart, caring, passionate about his work. Like Marcus Welby, M.D. or the doctor in the Norman Rockwell prints he gave me (that still hang in the office). Dr. Moseley was privileged to work as a doctor at a time when family doctors could deliver babies, remove gallbladders, etc. Just today a patient reminded me that he frequently made house calls (in his slippers at that). He was deeply admired by all of his professional colleagues. He taught me that laughter is truly the best medicine - for patients and doctors as well. One day, after introducing me to one of his beloved patients (whom has long since passed on), he turned to me in the hall outside the exam room and whispered, "you should get a porcelain level on her". I'd never heard of such a thing. I looked at him puzzled and asked why. "Because she's a crock!", he replied. We both broke into laughter. I came to learn that Dr. Moseley frequently injected a dose of humor whenever needed to ease the tension of a visit to the doctor's office. Every now and then one of his former patients will accidentally address me as "Dr. Moseley" instead of Dr. Moyer. Sometimes they catch themselves, sometimes they don't. I don't usually correct them because, quite frankly, I cannot imagine a greater compliment. Kaye and I would like to express our condolences and deepest sympathy to the entire family of Dr. Moseley. I would also like to reach out to the former patients and employees of Dr. Moseley - I know your hearts are aching over the loss of a fine man, gifted healer and great friend. Respectfully, Richard J. Moyer, M.D.

Dr. Moseley was not only our family doctor but he was our neighbor. As a doctor, you knew he cared about you and he even made house calls to my father at times. He was gentle, supportive, and always had time to talk. The Moseleys were great neighbors to my parents as well as great friends. Our thoughts and prayers are with the family and we will always feel blessed to have known Dr. Moseley.

Dr. Moseley became my family's doctor after caring for my grandfather in 1959 at County Hospital. He was a very kind man and his care for us is much appreciated. I'm glad to know that he loved the Lord. May He comfort you and give you joy in knowing that Dr. Moseley is with Him.

Remember the many hours Mo and other classmates gathered in the anatomy ampitheater to drill each other before an examination.
