Brian Kent Moore, 59, was born on June 13, 1966, in Princeton, Indiana to Donald Ray Moore and Glenda Sue (Goodloe) Moore. He was preceded in death by his parents.

Brian grew up and graduated high school in Princeton, Indiana. After graduation, he honorably served in the US Army at Fort Branch, Indiana. While in the military, he obtained his master's degree as an electrician. Upon his release from the military, Brian worked as a traveling federal electrician, often traveling to many different states. In 2005, Brian met Tanya Holcomb in Gatlinburg Tennessee, while he was working as an electrician, and they started their life together. He was a professional bull rider in the PBR for many years and was also inducted into the Universal Martial Arts Hall of Fame in Houston, Texas, as well as being posthumously inducted this year. Brian, Tanya and their daughter moved to Valliant, Oklahoma in December 2024 and he became the property manager over the King's Inn in Valliant. He will be deeply missed by those who knew and loved him.

Brian is survived by his family; wife, Tanya Holcomb; son, Daron Holcomb; daughter, Dezaray Huey and fiancé, Kyle Huey; granddaughter on the way, Roselynn Huey, along with other friends and loved ones.
