Doris J. Moore
July 13, 1942 - August 26, 2026
Doris was born July 13th, 1942 in Portland, Oregon to Harold and Alice Keller. She passed away on August 26th, 2026 in Caldwell, Idaho. Doris was the oldest of six children and was raised in Hermiston, Oregon. After graduating from Hermiston High School in 1961 she then went on toNorthwest Nazarene University in Nampa, Idaho and graduated with a degree in teaching.
Doris later married Terry Westmark and had her only child, a daughter named Tami in 1966. They lived in Portland, Oregon for years. In 1973, Doris and Tami moved to Nampa, Idaho where sheworked for the Caldwell School District, with students in the gifted and talented program. Thisprogram served four grades at two schools: fourth and fifth grade at Washington Elementary andsixth and seventh grade at Wilson Middle School. Doris was very proud of the work she was able todo in the lives of those children. During this time Doris and Tami moved to Caldwell, Idaho.
In 1981, Doris met the love of her life, Tom Moore and they were married. After they married Doris and Tami moved to Marsing, Idaho and they blended their families. Everyone would drive to Caldwell to attend and work for the Caldwell School District. As the kids grew up and left the house, Doris and Tom jumped at the opportunity to buy their dream cabin in the mountains. Doris had since retired from the Caldwell School District, and after being made Superintendent in 1995to oversee the building of the new Caldwell High School, Tom was able to join her in retirement in 1997.
Their first years of retirement were spent traveling and learning wood carving techniques from Indian tribes. They would spend their winters in the cabin and the summers at Arrowhead RV park in Cascade, Idaho teaching others carving techniques. For Doris grandchildren, the summers spent in Cascade were incredibly formative and sweet.
In March of 2005, Tom passed away and Doris moved back to Caldwell to be with family. A committed Christian for much of her life, Doris worshipped the Lord with her family at Calvary Chapel Caldwell. A few years after moving to Caldwell, she moved in with Tami and her husband Joe and their children, Jared and Victoria. In her last years,
Doris lived at Autumn Wind Assisted Living in Caldwell. Doris’ infectious joy and unconditional love for her family long outlived her mobility. Though faced with considerable challenge, she kept the faith and finished her race with joy, going to be with the Lord August 26th, wrapped in the prayers of her family and friends.
Doris is survived by her daughter Tami and her husband Joe and her grandchildren. Jared Moore and his wife Allie, Victoria Moore, Tom Moore and his wife Hailee and their two daughters Zariyah and Rylee, James Moore and his husband Chris. She is survived by her sisters, Janice Crown and
Cheryl Kaiser and their children and grandchildren and her sister in law Libby Keller. Doris was preceded in death by her parents and three siblings: Ardis Stewart, Don Keller and Theron Keller.
