Stan was born January 11, 1952, in Dallas, Texas, to Dr. L.G. Moore and Lois Virginia Tatum Moore. He committed his life to Jesus at the age of 12 and conformed his life to Christ each day after that. He graduated from Sam Houston High School in 1970 and attended Tarrant County College.

Stan began work in the construction industry for his father-in-law, E.J. Mikus Jr., in 1970. Stan established his own construction management corporation in 1985. He was known for his tremendous work ethic and honesty in all aspects of his business. If something wasn't right on a job, he would always do whatever was necessary to make it right.
