Andrew W. Moor "Andy", 83, a longtime resident of Longview, WA died at his home 
Monday morning, February 20, 2006. 

He was born February 7, 1923, near Mineral Springs, ND, eldest son of Alfred 
and Lily (Beck) Moor. He was reared on the family farm northeast of Bowman, ND. 
Andy met his future wife Inez M Chadwick at the Mission in Bowman, ND. They 
were married February 8, 1943 and just celebrated 63 years of marriage. After a 
few years of farming on the family farm, they sold their farm and spent the 
next seven years as missionaries throughout the United States. They permanently 
came to Longview in 1952 where Andy was a millwright with Weyerhaeuser for 31 
years. 

Since retirement, Andy spent the majority of his time going to church, studying 
the Bible, singing and playing the guitar and joyfully helping all of his 
family and friends anytime they were in need. Children everywhere naturally 
were attracted to him. He always left a memorable impression and never met a 
person he did not like. He received everyone with open arms. His strong and 
consistent faith in God throughout his life was an inspiration. Every church he 
attended could count on his loud "Amen" and enthusiastic singing during the 
services. And he did not want to pass up an opportunity to share Jesus with 
those he met. 

He was preceded in death by his parents; three sisters: Florence Trhlik, 
Eleanora Narum and Pearl Olson, and a son-in-law, Vernon T. Reynolds. 

Survivors include his wife, Inez; daughter, Sharon K. Reynolds of Kelso, WA; 
son and daughter-in-law, Donald D. and Gwen A. Moor of Rochester, WA and son 
Duaine L. Moor of Longview, WA; daughter-in-law Sue Goran of Longview, WA; four 
sisters: Rosella Knudson of Battleground, WA, Lillian Brooks of Bowman, ND and 
brother, David Moor of Woodland, WA; nine grandchildren: Deanna Anderson, 
Denise VanRiper, Dawn West, Dean Reynolds, Scott Moor, Christine Pennington, 
Jeff Dills, Heather Larson, Amey Sue Coleman, and twenty-five great 
grandchildren: Jeremy, Jessica and Jaden Anderson; Kayla, Justin and Morgan 
VanRiper; BJ, Britni and Blake West; Joshua, Zachary and Cheyenne Reynolds; 
Meghan and Robert Andrew Moor; Madison and Rachel Pennington; Jacob and 
Jeremiah Dills; Audrey, Isebella, Gracen, Toby and Natalya Larson; Bradley and 
Caylee Coleman and numerous nieces and nephews. 

Funeral services will be held Monday, February 27th, at 1:00 pm at the Shekinah 
Christian Center, Longview, WA. The viewing is scheduled for Friday, February 
24th from 5 pm to 7 pm at Cascade Northwest Funeral Chapel at Green Hills 
Memorial Gardens. The Reverend Robert Giles, Roger Lucas and Chris Kruger will 
officiate. 

In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made to SAFE Family 
Ministries, P.O. Box 1141, Chehalis, WA 98532 or any charity of your choice.
