Troy Lee Moore
November 3, 1932 - July 10, 2010
Troy Lee Moore, age 77 of Howe, TX passed away July 10, 2010 in Denison,
TX. He was born on November 3, 1932 in Lamesa, TX to Clyde and Eva
Lee (McClendon) Moore. Troy married Eula Fout on March 10, 1956 in
Artesia, NM. He served in the U.S. Army and was a member of the Church
of Christ.
Troy, also known as Dad, G-Dad, Pops and GG, was a loving husband,
wonderful father and a very loved grandfather. He was an honest man,
and a man who honored God with his life. He opened his home for weekly
devotionals while we were in high school. Everyone felt free to make
themselves at home. He respected and loved Eula, his wife, with all
his heart. On March 10, 2010 he celebrated 54 years of marriage.
He loved my Mom more now than when they were first married.
He set a wonderful example of what marriage should be. He was always
quick to tell you he loved you even if you messed up in life. He
never said an unkind word about anyone. He was a hard worker all
his life. He started working at 8 years old as a "milk truck jumper".
He retired from Mobil Oil after 35 years of service. After retiring,
he started working for H&R Block, where he continued to work for the
last 15 years. Dad was dedicated to everything he started. He was
loved by all who met him. Dad, you fought the good fight and you
finished the race. You were faithful, and now you have your reward.
You will be missed, but we will see you again.
