Tom was a great person and he will be missed very much
I am one of the boys who grew up with Tuckie at Bonnie Brae Farm in Millington, NJ.
He will always be one of the best athletes I have ever personally know. I daresay Bernards High School wouldn’t have had a winning football team without, ‘Tomasina’.
Inside our teenage peer group everyone wanted to be as popular and as cool as Tuckie. Whether singing on stage in the auditorium, or quarterbacking the football team to another victory, Tuckie was always that person the other boys most wanted to be like.
Rest in peace, Tucker. Won’t be too much longer before we’ll, all, be playing football together again.

I finally was able to track down a long lost ‘very close friend’ I can’t believe such a great friend has left us. I was one of the ‘Vibrations’ trio besides James ‘Jimmy’ ‘Jimbo’ Ray. We performed at a talent show at Bernardsville H.S.
1961 was the year. Robert
