One isolated memory is impossible to embrace! I met Tuck-Bob -(Afectionaly. Kown. As.)- while working as carpenters helpers(?!) for Ed Russell. At that time he was awaiting his family to join him as he had accepted a position with M.S.C. We instantly became fast friends based on our mutual respect, sense of humor, and observations. He was a genuine friend as his attention and focus on what I / anyone was sharing was important to him. His vision was refreshing, as when any time I happened to meet him, I was never greeted without an endearing smile and if the situation was of a more serious nature, his compassion was indeed releiving. My many memories will overtake his physical absence and with those thoughts I know I'm greeted with and a mutual smile! Peace to you my old pal and to all. And thanks for this forum!!! w/love: Scott Bixby

I had the pleasure of working on campus when Tucker was still there and remember fondly his work ethic and sense of humor. I remember him also as a part of the Pageant Wagon with A talented group of performers. My heartfelt sympathy for your loss.

I don't know where to begin! From my initial meeting with Tuck-Bob (affectionately known as), was until his family joined him in Mansfield/Whitneyville,where he began working for Ed Russell with whom I was working as carpenter helpers. We immediately formed a lasting relationship, based mainly on our senses of humor and common observations. I can't isolate any one given occasion where I didn't feel more comfortable than the others as his sincerity always was his focus and genuine interest was shown! Few can match the respect I have for one of my dearest friends. Fond memories will outlive my sadness. Peace to you pal, love, Scott Bixby.....
