Stephen R. "Doe" Moore

          Stephen Reed “Doe” Moore, 70, of Gnadenhutten, died unexpectedly in Oak Point Care Center in Baltic on Tuesday evening of April 14, 2020.

          Doe was born in Dennison, Ohio to the late Ralph and Betty (Stephenson) Moore on September 20, 1949. He graduated from Gnadenhutten High School in 1967, and after some college, he joined the United States Army and served for two years. He returned to Gnadenhutten where he spent the rest of his days being active in the community and any type of outdoor activity. Doe began working for the village street department in Gnadenhutten and worked for the village for twenty-nine years before retiring in 2006. He also worked as a custodian for the Indian Valley Schools, served on the Gnadenhutten town council for nearly ten years, and was a member of the Tuscarawas V.F.W. Post 7943. When it came to the outdoor activities, Doe was active with many clubs, including the Tusco Gun Club, Newcomerstown Trap Club, and the N.R.A. and hobbies of camping, fishing, hiking, hunting, and coaching and umpiring Gnadenhutten baseball.

          Doe is survived by his wife, Cheryl (Kettlewell), of Gnaden, two step-sons: Eric (April) Pancher and their children Kayla Sharier and son Asher, and Megan Sharier, and James Cox and his children Breelynn and Jaceden, a special niece, Karey and family, and a brother, David (Teresa) Moore.

          Doe was preceded in death by a sister, Rebecca Kibler, and a brother Gary Moore.
