Tucker was known as the "life of the party" always telling people to "giver the beans". Sincerely nice to everyone and had one of the most caring hearts. He was 19 years old and loved his family, friends, and most of all diesel trucks. To anyone that knew him, knew that he was the guy that worked on trucks and, well, they liked him to work on theirs as well. At the young age of 17 he bought his first "hotrod" a 1963 Ford Fairlane. He had a way of lighting up a room by simply walking through the door. He was as mischievous and stubborn as they come. Tucker graduated from Valley Mills High School in May of 2023. He was an awesome diesel mechanic and could fix anything you put in front of him.

At 16 Tucker was taken under the wing of Jody Gunter of Gunter Specialty and coworker Stephen Patterson.  Tucker was born in Des Moines, IA and lived there until he moved to Texas in 2011. Valley Mills, TX is where Tucker spent the remainder of his life with the friends and family, he loved the most.
