The Moores owned and operated L.S. Moore Furniture for 40 years. They also owned several movie theaters, the Oasis in Hermiston, the Mor Theater in Umatilla, and four more in other towns, and had a repair shop and a bowling alley.
Mrs. Moore received the 2002 Oregon Health Care Association Enrichment of Life Resident Award. She was said to be a caring, compassionate person with a tremendously big heart who always tried to help others who needed assistance.
She was a member of Our Lady of Angels Catholic Church.
She was preceded in death by her husband, Lloyd A. Moore, and son, John M. Moore.
Survivors include her daughter, Martha Edmiston of Denver, Colo.; grandson, Mike Edmiston; many nieces, nephews, and cousins.
