    Marion McLemore Moor died on December 3, 2013 in Nashville, TN. He was the son of the late Marion Baird Moor and the late Robert James Moor. He was preceded in death by his two brothers, Robert Baird Moor and Charles Harold Moor of Greenwood.

    He was born September 2, 1930 in Greenwood, MS. Marion was proud of his Scottish heritage and the Southern culture he enjoyed growing up in the Mississippi Delta on Fort Loring Plantation. He graduated from Greenwood High School in 1948 and received a Bachelor of Science degree from the University of Tulsa in 1952.

    He is survived by his wife of 61 years, Janice Harder Moor, and three children, Robin Moor (Vicki), Jamie Granbery (Jimmy), and Geren Moor (Tracy), all of Nashville.

    Marion was dedicated to his career as a petroleum geologist and was actively pursuing projects up to the time of his death. He loved his nickname "Rocky", referring to his chosen profession. He was privileged to pursue military service in the United States Navy from his time in high school as a seaman recruit. He received his commission as an ensign in 1952 and after two years of active duty and over 25 years of reserve duty, he retired as a commander.

    Marion was a long time member of First United Methodist Church in Greenwood. After moving to Nashville in 2005, he became a member of Belle Meade United Methodist Church where he was an active participant in the Shepherd's Sunday school class.
