Les and Sandy Moore’s story is one of heartbreak transformed into purpose. In 2011, their teenage son Matt died in a tragic Boy Scout swimming accident — a moment that forever changed their family’s path. In the years since, they have turned unimaginable loss into a mission of compassion, helping others navigate grief and rediscover meaning when the unthinkable happens. Sandy, a mother and volunteer known for her strength and empathy, speaks openly about grief as both a wound and a teacher — a companion on the long road toward healing. Les, an attorney and community leader, brings perspective shaped by faith and a quiet steadiness that has guided countless others through their own seasons of loss. 

Together, they have chosen not to let sorrow define them but to let love lead them — honoring Matt’s memory by showing up for others in pain, reminding us all that hope can survive even our hardest days. Now spending winters at Outdoor Resort Palm Springs (ORPS), the Moore's bring grace, humor, and deep perspective to every conversation — living proof that light can return, one day and one step at a time. “Moving forward doesn’t mean leaving grief behind — it means carrying love with you.”
