Glenn Edward Tucker passed away Friday, September 18, 2020 in Cleburne. He was born July 24, 1948 in Batesburg, South Carolina to Lenard Dayton and Margaret Emma (Hutto) Tucker.
Tucker was a big man with a big heart. He wanted to help people, some, who most would not give a second glance. He provided opportunities of work for those who needed it. He would give anyone a chance to succeed.
His “Glory Days” were not the ones spent playing football at North Texas or when he played for the Washington Redskins. His “Glory Days”, were spent out in the country watching his cows. He lived to be a rancher. His dream was to build his herd back up. Just last week, we were talking about “next spring...”. He was always looking ahead and always positive, even when his situation wasn’t.
What can you say about a man who touched so many lives? He said last week that when he died, that he hoped that people would have nice things to say about him. I don’t know if he really knew the full impact that he had on this area and the people in it.
Pop, we will miss you and your big hugs. We love you. Rest In Peace
