He was born on Thursday, January 26, 1933, to the late Charles and Lissie (Copas) Moore. In addition to his parents, he was also preceded in death by his spouse, Chloe Nell (Anderson) Moore; and siblings, Otis Moore, Charles Whitson Moore, Jr., Opal Henson, Mable Whittemore, and Doris Taylor.

Clyde and Chloe owned and operated Moore’s Deli Bake here in Celina. If you had the privilege of eating there, you know exactly what I am talking about, but if you never had the opportunity, you truly missed out. Clyde knew hard work and dedication. Always willing to lend a helping hand, a good friend to many.

He enjoyed feeding the birds, raising chickens and his dogs. He absolutely loved his dogs. He made monthly trips to buy cheerios and dog treats, spending hundreds of dollars; he took the best care of his animals. They will sure miss him.

Clyde is survived by his daughters, Anita Hobson (David Poole), Angela McElroy, and Jennifer Combs (Rickey); 5 grandchildren; 2 great-grandchildren; brother, Don Moore; as well as a host of friends and neighbors that will mourn his passing.

The Upton-Hay Funeral Home is honored to serve the family of Mr. Clyde Preston Moore.
