He was a member of the Summerfield Church of Christ and the Noble County Genealogy Society. He served and protected his nation in the US Army in the Vietnam War. Master Sergeant Timothy R.

He accumulated many awards for his service, the Meritorious Service Medal with 4 oak leaf clusters, Army Commendation Medal with 1 oak leaf cluster, Army Achievement Medal, Meritorious Unit Commendation, Vietnam Service Medal with 2 bronze service stars, just to name a few.

To say that Tim worked to assist local veterans as well as commemorate their memory would be an understatement. He served as the American Legion Post 415 Adjutant for 27 years and the Disabled American Veterans Chapter 87 Adjutant for 25 years. He served on the Local Color Guard and attended untold numbers of Veterans funerals for decades. He spent unmeasurable hours with his "Library Girls" doing tedious research to catalog articles concerning local veterans from years past. He was inducted into the Noble County Veterans Hall of Fame in 2017 for his many services to the community.

In addition to his parents, he is preceded in death by brothers James Moore, Harry T. (Nancy) Moore Jr., Charles Moore, Thomas D. Moore; sisters Patricia Rubel and Naoma Philpot.
