Arthur Ray "Kip" Moore Memorial Scholarship

This scholarship was established in 1990 by Mrs. Mary Sue Moore, her daughter, Mrs. Susan Armstrong and friends in loving memory of husband and father Arthur Ray “Kip” Moore of Monette, Ark. Mr. Moore was a retired lumber retailer in eastern Craighead County before his death. He was involved in many church and civic activities in Monette, and was a veteran of World War II. He was a known and sought-after speaker and master of ceremonies for events throughout Craighead County. At age 55, he entered Arkansas State University making him the oldest freshman at that time. Although he was not interested in obtaining his degree, he wanted to prove to himself and others that a person could learn at any age.
