During the TikTok video, Moore's mom read her daughter's card to her father.
Lindsey has vowed to give back an NFL rookie Marino card to her dad since seeing him sell when she was seven years old.
The clip showed Moore's emotional father while the mother read the Christmas card to the family.
“Money was tight, so you were selling your most prized possession – at least what I viewed it as," Moore wrote in the card.

"I felt your sacrifice and it taught me that I would do whatever necessary to ensure my future family never needed for anything.
"It was a lesson that has stuck with me since that moment and taught me the value of the greater good."
The Marino rookie card in the present-day sells for around $5,000 on eBay.
The Miami Dolphins Hall of Famer is regarded as one of the best quarterbacks to ever play in the NFL.

“I will never be able to fully repay that debt," Moore continued.
"Seven-year-old me would be so elated to see that I finally fulfilled that promise I made to myself.
Thank you for everything."
During the video, Moore's father was seen in tears and took off his glasses to wipe them.
After the mother read the card, he said: "I know what it is."
The father then opened the gift to the delight of the family.
Then, the father wiped away his tears and came in to hug Lindsey.
