We, so many, will miss Joe greatly. He was always a bright light with a funny comment or light joke. He created fun parties and made all around him feel a little lighter. He loved our community and was often ready and capable to lend a hand. I remember his contributions along with a larger group when we worked on the Town center in Heart of Adair. I trusted his and Terry's opinions on sourcing the street lights and so many other things they always seemed to have valuable knowledge about. We will miss you Joe. My best wishes to all of the family.

THE PASSING OF A LEGEND IN HIS OWN TIME; JOE MOORE
COLUMBIA HAS LOST ONE OF ITS FEW REMAINING CHARACTERS WITH THE PASSING OF JOE ALLEN MOORE. I WILL TRY TO SUBMIT TO YOU SOME OF THE THINGS I FOUND INTERESTING ABOUT MY FRIEND JOE MOORE.
THE GREAT LOVE THAT JOE HAD FOR ADAIR COUNTY AND HER HISTORY WAS SOMETHING THAT HE SHARED MOST OF HIS LIFE. HIS WORK ON THE COURTHOUSE AND THE TRABUE RUSELL HOUSE ARE EXAMPLES AS WELL AS HIS ARTWORK ON RENDERINGS OF THE OLD CLERKS OFFICE, OLD JAIL, COURTHOUSE AND OTHER OLD BUILDINGS IN COLUMBIA WILL HANG IN HOMES OF HER CITIZENS FOR MANY YEARS. HIS WORK IN MAPPING TODDS CAVE AND MOVING THE HURT CABIN ARE OTHER EXAMPLES OF JOE MOORES LOVE FOR THE PAST.
JOE AND I SHARED A PASSION OF THE "OLD STUFF" , JOES COLLECTION FAR EXCEEDED MOST PEOPLES COLLECTION, HE TURNED HIS INTO A MUSEUM OF OLD THINGS. JOE HAD AN EYE FOR THINGS THAT HE COULD MAKE USE OF AND WAS WATCHFUL TO TRY AND TRADE YOU OUT OF IT OR BETTER YET LET YOU GIVE IT TO ME TO TAKE.
I THINK THAT THE SALE OF HIS COLLECTION OF OLD THINGS TOOK THREE DAYS TO SELL IT ALL.
ANYTIME YOU SAW JOE MOORE COMING YOU KNEW THAT YOU WERE GOING TO GET A LAUGH REAL QUICK. JOE WAS ALWAYS THE SAME, IN A GOOD MOOD AND WAS READY TO TELL YOU A BIG STORY ABOUT SOMETHING OR SOMEBODY. WHEN YOU WOULD SEE JOE HE WAS ALWAYS GOING TO LOOK THE SAME. WHITE SHIRT, SWEATER UNLESS THE VERY HOTTEST OF TIMES, AND HIS SUSPENDERS. YOU COULD COUNT ON SEEING JOE IN A WHITE DODGE PICKUP TRUCK. MOST OF THE TIME THAT LITTLE CIGAR HANGING OUT OF HIS MOUTH.
JOE HAD A GREAT LOVE FOR PARTIES, AS A MATTER OF FACT I KNOW THAT HE IS THE ONLY MAN THAT LOVED A PARTY SO WELL THAT HE SPENT TEN YEARS BUILDING A HOUSE TO HAVE PARTIES IN. THE EDGEWOODS WILL NOW BE A LASTING MEMORIAL TO JOE MOORE. JOE AND TERRY GATHERED THE HOUSE UP ONE PIECE AT A TIME. JOE COULD TELL YOU WHERE EVERYTHING CAME FROM, WHO GAVE IT TO HIM OR WHAT JOB IT WAS LEFT OVER FROM OR MAYBE WHICH JOB IT CAME UP MISSING FROM.
IF YOU EVER SAW ONE OF THE ALLEN MOORE ELECTRICAL CONTRACTORS BUSINESS CARDS YOU SAW AN EXAMPLE OF JOE MOORE'S SENSE OF HUMOR. THE CARD LISTED ALL THE OTHER THINGS HE WAS INTO LIKE, CEDAR BUCKETS, HORSESHOE PUZZLES, MOLASSAS MAKING, JUNK COLLECTING AND LAST OF ALL ELECTRICAL CONTRACTORS.
YOU COULD HARDLY SAY JOE WITHOUT SAYING JOE AND TERRY WHEN IT CAME TO WORK.
WHEN YOU CALLED THEM FOR ELECTRICAL WORK YOU GOT THE EXPERT ABILILTY OF TWO GREAT ELECTRICIANS AS WELL AS THE HUMOR, JOKES, STORIES AND FOOLISHNESS THAT WAS THEIR TRADEMARK. IF HE STOPPED BY OR I MET HIM ON THE STREET HE WOULD IMMEDIATELY LOOK AT HIS WATCH AND SAY HE WAS 'ON THE CLOCK' TO TRY AND CHARGE YOU FOR CONSULTATION.
JOES KNOWLEDGE OF VOLTAGE, AMPERAGE, CIRCUITS, LUMENS AND KILOWAT HOURS WAS WAY OVER MY HEAD BUT HE KNEW HIS BUSINESS BACKWARD AND FORWARDS.
SEVERAL TIMES I HAVE CALLED HIM IN AN ELECTRICAL EMERGENCY AND YOU WOULD HARDLY GET THE PHONE HUNG UP TILL THERE WAS JOE MOORE OR TERRY MOORE IF I HAD TO CALL THEM BOTH. THAT TYPE OF SERVICE HIS GETTING HARDER AND HARDER TO FIND IN TRADESMEN TODAY.
THE FAMILY AND WE HIS MANY FRIENDS WILL MISS HIM FOR A LONG TIME TO COME. HIS SENSE OF HUMOR AND FUNNY ANTICS WILL LAST ME THE REST OF MY LIFE. REST IN PEACE JOE MOORE!!!!!!

Joe was my cousin as his mother and my mother were 1st cousins. My mother Luanda Montgomery Rogers .
We made visits to their home and I was always amazed at the talents Joe had and Terry too. They had trains running and many electrical things in their rooms. They were so talented and knowledgeable.
Love and prayers to family and friends.
