Dayton Moses (Olefin)

[epstns]

For those of you who knew him, I just learned yesterday of Dayton's passing on Friday morning, Feb. 14, 2014. His wife of 58 years, Betty, was at his side. I don't have a way to cross post the information from Heartvalvepatients.com, but there is more posted there.

Dayton was a real character - bigger than life. He never ran across anything he couldn't do for himself. His musings about growing up in the earlier part of the 20th century evoked my own memories of my childhood some years later. Dayton and I sometimes shared stories of the old cars we had and the miracles we had to work to keep them running.

I sort of looked up to him as the older brother I never had. Now I will have to look farther up to see him.

Our hearts go out to Betty and their family.

R.I.P. Dayton!

My sympathy to Dayton's family. He and I where about the same age and had had many years experience with our valves and I enjoyed his down home sense of humor.

This is very sad news and will certainly keep Dayton's family in my thoughts and prayers.

Steve thanks for the information on Dayton's passing. It comes as a surprise to me as I always thought of him as being in good health despite being in his late 70's.

Here I am, checking the forums after a long time and see that another one of us has moved on to the next phase of existence. Dayton was a vibrant man - I'm sure he's missed by family & friends. R.I.P. Dayton.
