Sincere condolences and love to Rita and family at this sad time. I knew Des when in Halswell in the late 1960's. He was our butcher and provided a good product and service.
Remember his time in the Methodist Church in Christchurch, I know the Lord will be with you at this time and His Spirit along with many loved ones will support you today and the many days and months ahead. Derek

I have known Des since the 1960s. He was very active in the life of the Shirley Methodist Church - Bible Class Leader, and participant in major roles in the shows put on by the Shirley Methodist Bible Class. He was hard working, genuine, kind, and a natural leader. I have great respect and affection for Des Moore. - Robin Coomber
