It is with sadness that I announce the death of my father, Don Moody,
who seems to have helped and troubled this group in equal measure. He
passed away at 9:30 p.m. this evening, 27th February 2009.
Dad eventually lost his battle against diabetes and was suffering from
kidney failure, ischaemia and partial blindness. In the end an
attempt to revascularise his leg with angioplasty failed and he died
in Exeter hospital.
As some of you have noted in your "Where's Don?" posts his activity on
this newsgroup has been sporadic and ever-decreasing in recent times.
I hope that even those who experienced Dad's sometimes emotionally
unintelligent approach to genealogy will in the final analysis balance
that against some of the good things he did for people in this group
and at least note the passing of a worthy adversary.
The Last Post.

Please accept our condolences, Danny. I shall surely miss your father's presence on this newsgroup.
Don had offered his hospitality, over a glass of single malt, when next we found ourselves near Devonshire. So, we shall break open a new bottle, something peaty no doubt :-), and raise a glass to him this day.
All the best,
