Mr. Moore served as Mason City Education Association president, Harding PTO president, ACE Credit Union board member and had lifetime memberships in the ISEA and NEA.
His interests included painting, reading, collecting fossils, Iowa history, bingo and many Canadian and Minnesota fishing trips.

Survivors are cousins and those whose lives he touched at Harding School.
Colleagues recall how his educational background enriched us, how his charactor encouraged us to delve and discuss, and how his humor enlightened our days at "work." We hope we passed that joy to our students.
Thank you, Mr. Moore.
