I love him as my teacher, my mentor, and my friend. Words seem like an injustice in describing the immense heart and spirit he carried inside him. I feel nothing but grateful to have had him in my life.

Dear Tucker Family,
Mr. Tucker was a phenomenal teacher and a wonderful person.
I cannot express to you how truly sorry I am to hear of this tragic loss.
I never did thank him for giving me the confidence to pursue my writing and to believe in my abilities. He was an intrepid man whose creativity and sense of humor made school less of a burden each day.
He will always be my favorite teacher and in my heart, will never be forgotten. Peace and blessings to you all and again, I am truly sorry.
To you, Mr. Tucker- Thank you for all that you've given me. Rest in Peace Friend.

Dear Tucker Family,
I am so sorry for your tragic loss. I have many memories of Scott however one of the best was his double overtime goal against Canton at Playland. I was in 8th grade and I don't think I ever touched the ice until we got to pile on top of him. He was truly a great guy and I know he will be missed by many. My heart goes out to you.

Sincerely,
Jeremy Keller

Dear Catharine and Mr. and Mrs. Tucker,

Joanne and I want to send our heartfelt condolences to you at this difficult time.

Scott was one of the finest people I had the chance to work with in my career. As a coach he was a "players coach" in that the guys really loved and respected him.

One of the highlights of my life was being at Middlebury College with Tuck for the 1995 NCAA Division III National Championship game. Scott was instrumental in guiding our team that far in the season.

He will always be fondly remembered by Joanne and I along with the entire Blue Devil hockey family.

May God bless you and your entire family during these times and please know that you are in our prayers.

Sincerely,

Jeff and Joanne Meredith
