Delbert Hershel Moore was born in Delta, Colorado on June 3, 1940, the oldest son of Melvin Maurice and Leoma Thornbrugh Moore. He passed away Wednesday, September 27, 2023 at the Oklahoma Heart Hospital in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma.
The family moved back to the Fairview area when Delbert was 6 months old. He went to Fairview Schools and graduated in 1958. Delbert married Clara June Wilson on August 24, 1958 at the home of his parents in Fairview. They made their home in Fairview for ten years, then moved to the country west of Fairview in 1967.
Delbert worked for Walt Weis while in high school, then went to work for Don's Welding which later became Waldon, Inc. He worked at Waldon's for 25 years when he retired and went to teach welding at Northwest Technology Center at the Fairview campus. He retired from teaching in May 2002 after teaching 21 years. He then returned twice to fill the teaching job until another instructor could be hired. Delbert did substitute teaching for two different classes for many years after that. He took a night class of stained glass in the fall of 2002 and fell in love with it, producing numerous projects for family and friends. He also made metal sculptures for family and friends from old farm disc blades. Delbert loved to fish and hunt.
