The Harp Family:

Words are inadequate to express our profound sadness in the illness and passing of your beloved husband, grandfather, brother, uncle and family patriarch, Moody Allen Harp, Jr.

We pray that God shall continue to give you the strength, courage and peace during the difficult days ahead.

May you continue to hold fast to his precious memories and his gentle spirit that richly embraced and touched the lives of so many people…for he will always be in your heart.

Continue to hold fast to God’s unchanging hands; the indelible mark and his life legacy he left for others to follow that shall forever be etched in the footprints of time.

I have fond memories of Moody while at Richmond Raceway with my boys, meeting Richard Petty and Mark Martin in the garage and getting their autograph. Remembered the drivers called him The Clock Man, cause he made clocks in the shape and color scheme of their cars and gave the clock to them. He introduced me to owner of RIR, he knew everyone.

Love and continuous blessings always,
Terry, Vic Williams and boys

Thought & prayers to the Harp family. Moody & I worked together on several services. I remember the time in Chesapeake when he drove a limo & we went to Burger King to eat & he jumped over the chain to order food & he fell face first. He was bloody but he insisted on continuing driving his limo & went to the hospital after he got off work. He went the extra mile for families he drove for.
