A Hilltop legend in his own right . Rest In Peace My Friend .
I only just now found out about my friend “Tuck” passing away. I’m stunned. I always enjoyed conversation with him when we’d meet. My sentiments are the same as many who have sent their condolences. God can and God will keep you and yet prosper you. Bless you, one and all Rosie.
