BANGOR – Gus Moore, 86, of Bangor died March 31, 2004, at a local hospital. He was born Feb. 2, 1918, in Milford, to Frank and Margaret (Connors) Moore. Gus worked for more than 30 years for Maine Central Railroad and 12 years at John Bapst High School. Gus’s life was sports. He was a charter member of the Eastern Maine Board of Basketball Officials and refereed for many years all over Maine. Gus spent 25 years involved in coaching and umpiring Little League Baseball. He and Bernie Rice coached the first Bangor West All Star team to win a state championship in 1961. The last 20 years Gus enjoyed watching University of Maine teams and was looking forward to the Frozen Four and the regional softball and baseball tournaments this May. Being a long time Yankee fan, Gus’s great sense of humor was aimed at his many Red Sox friends. Gus is survived by his devoted wife of 61 years, Dorothy; and was a dad never too tired to hit grounders or play catch with his two sons, Gary and Bruce; a sister, Pauline Smith of Belleair, Fla.; and several nieces and nephews. He was predeceased by two brothers and sisters. Friends may call 7-9 p.m. Friday at Foley Funeral Service, 299 Union St., Bangor, where funeral services will be held 11 a.m. Saturday with the Rev.
