In memory of their father, Wendric “Buddy” Moore, a long-time Lewistown Ruritan member, daughter Patty Goff (Lewistown Ruritan member) and her siblings refurbished the steps and banisters at the Lewistown Ruritan Pavilion, where the famous Lewistown Ruritan chicken BBQ is held. They also added a cement pad at the bottom of the refurbished steps, making it much safer to use.

The other siblings included Kevin Moore, Mike Moore, Joe Moore, Debbie Jones, Chuck Moore, Terry Kaas, and Cindy Kokoski.
