Words can't express the way it feels to loose someone you love. I know the way Shelley would just talk about her father and the glow she had being that proud daughter! I pray that God will give you and your family the strength you need at this time.

In so many ways you all are a part of my family and there are so many memories that go back many years. We will so miss Tommy, but now his pain is over here and he is at peace and joy with our Lord. For us there are many tears and much loneliness but one day we can see all of them. I'm sure Lester and Floyd are right there with open arms greeting him now. My love to you all.

My deepest condolences to the Tucker family, he was a great man and will be missed by many.
For this one farmer the worries are over, lie down and rest your head,
Your time has been and struggles enough, put the tractor in the shed.
Years were not easy, many downright hard, but your faith in God transcended,
Put away your tools and sleep in peace. The fences have all been mended.
You raised a fine family, worked the land well and always followed the Son,
Hang up your shovel inside of the barn; your work here on earth is done.
A faith few possess led your journey through life, often a jagged and stony way,
The sun is setting, the cattle are all bedded, and here now is the end of your day.
Your love of God’s soil has passed on to your kin; the stories flow like fine wine,
Wash off your work boots in the puddle left by blessed rain one final time.
You always believed that the good Lord would provide and He always had somehow,
Take off your gloves and put them down, no more sweat and worry for you now.
Your labor is done, your home now is heaven; no more must you wait,
Your legacy lives on, your love of the land, and we will close the gate.
RIP Pop Tucker
