Max Moore, president of Oklahoma Steel and Wire and active participant in AWPA,
died in late May following a mid-air collision while flying his plane home from his plant in
Norman, OK. Surviving are his wife, Pat; daughters Sarah, Rachel and Elissa; parents,
B.L. and Colleen Moore; brothers Jon and Craig; sister Kathleen; and a wealth of friends
and business associates.
Max was a very valued member of the AWPA, serving on the Board of Directors since
1990 and as Treasurer from 1993 to 1996. Max was also a charter member of the
policymaking Government Relations Advisory Committee.
While Max's business interests took much of his time, he maintained a devotion to his
family and enjoyed acrobatic flying, SCUBA diving and boating. He was a member of the
Young President's Organization, the International Aerobatic Club and the International
Council of Air Shows.
Max will be sorely missed for his straightforward point-of-view, his active involvement in
AWPA's most important issues, his humor, and most of all his enthusiasm for his company
and the wire industry.
