TUCKER, Ronald Maurice, of Clio, MI, died November 28, 2020, at Ascension Genesys, due to complications from Covid-19. A private service will be held at a later date.
Ron was born September 17, 1953 to Maurice "Bud" and June Tucker. He grew up, and went to school in Mt. Morris, MI, and was part of the 1971 graduating class. Ron married Nancy Graham on December 30, 1973. He went on to attend Mott Community College and then Central Michigan University. They lived in Shepherd, MI, where Ron worked night shift at UPS while earning his Bachelor Degree in Business Administration. Throughout his entire career, he was always a hard worker, and sometimes worked 2-3 jobs at a time. For the past 20 years, and presently, he was dedicated to running his own business and was a successful real estate appraiser. He took pride in his business, and cultivated many close friendships along the way.
Ron was well known as a jokester. He loved to make people laugh, and his best partner in crime was lifelong friend, John Covert. Ron loved his family. He took great pride in his five grandchildren, and their accomplishments. He had a generous heart, and was always giving, wanting to make sure his family was taken care of. Ron also had a soft spot for animals. He kept a pocketful of dog and cat treats to share with his grandpup, the neighbor dogs, and any others he was fortunate to meet.
Ron is survived by wife Nancy (Graham) Tucker, daughters Carrie Holland, Amanda (Turner) Ipsen, and Jamie Tucker. Five grandchildren Savannah (Zachary) Takacs, Dylan and Conner Holland, Violet and Isla Ipsen. Sister Karen (Dennis Parks) and brother Richard Tucker, and many family and friends. Thank you to the doctors and nurses in the MICU at Ascension Genesys, who he spoke highly of each day.
He was preceded in death by his parents Maurice "Bud" and June Tucker, son-in-law Mark Holland, and niece Stefanie Parks.
