Dr. Raymond Moore Has Passed Away

I haven't read any of the Moore's books on homeschooling, although I would really like to. I have heard many, many wonderful things about them and their philosphy on teaching and training our children. You can learn more about the Moore's here.

Raymond was a missionary, a world traveler, lecturer, author, educator, and a consummate gentleman. His highest goal was to serve God as a Seventh-day Adventist Christian.
