Jesus said, “Suffer little children to come unto me.” Bobby was born a baby and even though he was a man in stature he was a child in mind and heart. His parents chose to keep him at home and raise him in the church. When his parents passed away his sister, Freda Buckner took him in and took care of him. After she passed away, he was taken care of by her daughters, his nieces. Bobby brought joy to all that knew him in his 87 years because of the love he was taught. He will always be remembered attending church and listening to gospel music! He was preceded in death by his parents, James and Ella Ann Lowery Tucker and his stepdad, Oather Proctor, four sisters, Mary Bartt, Doca Lewis, Mildred Ferrell and Freda Buckner, and three brothers, Russell Tucker, Rhondes Tucker and Cecil Tucker.
