Our History
Our family has been taking care of many of Tulsa's families for a long time. A small business that started in Claremore, moved to Tulsa by the courage and vision of a man from New Jersey. Moore's has become one of our city's most successful and respected enterprises, embodying the spirit that has helped this city become such a wonderful place to live.

The Moore family has been providing a very crucial service for the people of Tulsa since 1929. Even before they introduced their 50¢ a month Full Family Funeral Plan (often taking chickens and other things in trade when money was really tight), they were here for the Tulsa community when they were needed most. The Moore’s have done so with compassion, courage and commitment, the cornerstone of generations of service to this community and it's children.

James Herbert Moore and sons, William M. and John Foreman, founded Moore Undertakers in the early 1900's. Later they were associated with Musgrove Funeral Home of Claremore. In 1929 they moved to Tulsa and became Moore's Morticians.

In 1932 they became Moore Funeral Homes. Joe M. Moore now oversees the operation of five Tulsa facilities. Elaine Moore-Jones has been the Funeral Director at the Southlawn Chapel for fifteen years. The Moore family has worked to insure that Tulsa families have someone they can count on when they need them the most.

Our family has been taking care of your family for a long time, and that's the way it should be. Because of the Moore’s, in Tulsa, that's the way it will continue to be!
