Howard Moore has been through so much in his life. He?s attempting to help control gun violence in his hometown of Chicago after his uncle was shot and killed. Now he loses his wife and daughter in a car accident. What an incredibly sad day.

Absolutely heartbreaking news regarding Wisconsin assistant Howard Moore and his family. Involved in a car accident late last night that claimed life of his wife and daughter. Awful. Howard suffered non-life threatening injuries and his son suffered minor injuries. So sad.
