Paul Tucker Obituary

Paul Anthony "Tony" Tucker, 56, of Homosassa and formerly of Palmetto, Florida, passed away Thursday, May 21, 2015, at his home.
A native of Inverness, Florida, he was born Nov. 22, 1958, to Mamie Irene Tucker (Esnard) and raised a true Florida boy by his dad, F.A. Tucker. Tony, as he was known to everyone, was a talented and gifted mechanic, which led him to a 30-year career with the Manatee County Government. He moved to Homosassa in 2008 from Bradenton upon his retirement from Manatee County as the superintendent of fleet maintenance.
Mr. Tucker is survived by his mother, Mamie Irene Ivory, and stepfather Bob Ivory, Homosassa; daughters Shannon Tucker (Bradley Cox), Bradenton, Florida, and Jessica Tucker (Idalberto Galvan), Cape Coral, Florida; sister Marla Chancey (husband Don), Homosassa; stepbrothers Mark Ivory (wife Laura), Indianapolis, Indiana, and Matt Ivory, Dubuque, Iowa; and grandchildren Jessenia, Jenavieve, Jaxson and Jaycen.
In lieu of flowers, Tony's family wishes that memorial contributions be made to a local sober living organization of one's choice. Wilder Funeral Home, Homosassa, Florida. www.wilderfuneral.com
