James Robley Moor ’39

Jay died July 29, 2003, at JML Care Center near his home in East Falmouth, Mass.

He worked for Sun Oil Co. of Philadelphia from 1939-71 with time out to serve in the Army from 1944-45. He retired to East Falmouth, where he and one of his sons formed Old Dock Painters, a painting and construction business. Prior to moving to Falmouth, he was a summer resident there, and was very active in local civic work as a town meeting member, president and treasurer of the Davisville Civic Assn., a major contributor to the Book of Falmouth on Falmouth's 300th anniversary, and devoted committee worker on pond pollution and other environmental concerns. He also made time to follow Falmouth high school sports, particularly football and lacrosse because his grandson participated in both.

Jay's wife, Priscilla Peirce Moor, survives, as do his three sons by his first wife, Constance Wyatt, who died in 1986, two stepdaughters, four grandchildren, and four great-grandchildren. We offer them our sincere sympathy.
