Rice Tucker Obituary
Myrle was born on June 16, 1938, in Wynnewood, Oklahoma, to Rice Mance Gilley and Elsie Washburn Tucker. He was later adopted by Noble Tucker.
Myrle found great joy in fishing and ranching and was always working on a project or fixing something. He never met a stranger and truly loved everyone he met. His warm smile could light up a room, and his presence will be forever cherished and deeply missed.
Myrle is survived by his brother Allen Tucker, his daughter, Julie; sons, JR, Mark, and Mike; and his grandchildren: Matthew (wife Alyssa and daughter Emerson), Ryan, Sara, Robert, Andrew, Mason, and Aubrey, as well as eight great-grandchildren.
He was preceded in death by his mother, Elsie Washburn Tucker; father, Rice Gilley; adoptive father, Noble Tucker; brother, Elton Tucker; sister, Joyce Tucker; and his beloved wife, Linda Tucker.
