Obituary

Iris Moore of Springfield, MO passed away Thursday, January 11, 2018 at ManorCare Nursing Home. She was born February 20, 1931 in Marionville, MO, to Lee and Madolene Lachmund. Iris graduated from Springfield High in 1949 and always enjoyed reminiscing with friends at the '49ers class reunions. Iris volunteered at Smith Glynn Clinic, was a member of the Elks Lodge #409 Auxiliary, member of Red Hats Society and the Springfield Little Theatre Guild. She was a charter member at Wesley UMC. She worked 18 years as a secretary for the Teamsters Union #245. Iris' family and her community were very important to her.

In 1984, she married George Moore, who survives her. Other survivors include her son, R.D Underwood of Muskogee, OK; daughter, Roberta "Robbie" Roop of Springfield, MO; step-daughters, Deborah Ellsworth (Dennis) of St. Joseph, MO and Pam Moore of Kansas City, MO; grandsons, Dustin Underwood (Crystal) and Levi Underwood; step-granddaughter, Melody Ratliff (Michael); cousins, Bill Hilton and Wayne Tallant of El Paso, TX.

Mom was a beautiful lady inside and out. She never met a stranger and was a sassy lady and social director who will be greatly missed.

Visitation will be Tuesday, January 16, from 5-7 p.m. in Gorman-Scharpf Funeral Home with a graveside service at 2 p.m., Thursday, January 18 in Missouri Veterans Cemetery.

The family wishes to thank the staff at ManorCare and Oxford Hospice for the compassionate care of Iris during her illness. We also want to give a special thank-you to JoNell Williams for her loving friendship and excellent care of Iris. Memorial contributions may be made to Oxford Hospice.
