April 25, 2019 at 3:39 amSo sorry to hear of your father passing away. Our parents, Bob and June Frame, always enjoyed sharing times together with Bob and Jean. Your father was always great with creating haikus. He had a wonderful disposition and a friendly voice. Our fathers talked a lot on the phone in their later years and it was thrilling for dad to receive a call from your dad. Just a great man who will have a place waiting for him next to Jean in heaven. God bless both of them.

April 28, 2019 at 8:44 pmMr. Tucker was the Superintendent at New Richmond School District when I was a student there in the early sixties. I remember him in the hallways…always smiling and taking time to talk to the students. We invited him to join our Home Economics class for a meal we prepared. After the meal, he smiled and said that he really enjoyed the food and company. I don’t remember a lot of the teachers names but I will never forget Mr. Tucker. May God bless you and keep you.
