Johana:
I find it difficult to adequately explain how saddenned I am for the loss of Tucker. Though I had not seen the two of you for many, many years, I often have thought of those early times we were together at Brackenridge and remember well the begining of your special relationship with him. It was so heartwarming to witness your love for each other grow. I that a love that special lasts forever. May God give you and your family the strength to deal with the future and to help you remember with a smile the special memories you made with Tucker. May God also bless you and protect you. Take care!

Johanna, Kristen, Monica, and Chris, I am deeply sorry for the loss of Tucker. He was a great inspiration for me and was the closest person I had to a father here in Austin. I will always miss him and his "let me tell you something" talks. He was always there for me, and I hope to always be there for all of you.
All my love and support,

Tucker was one of the most generous and caring persons I have ever known. His good deeds could fill many books. With a doubt, the Good Lord is now rewarding him for his deep love and care of his wife Johanna and children as well as for his devoted friendship and help extended to so many people. May God comfort Johanna and his family at this time of great sadness and loss. My prayers are with you all.
