JORDAN L. TUCKER

Jordan L. Tucker, age 18 years and five days, of Cloquet, passed away unexpectedly in his sleep early Saturday, Nov. 15, 2008.

He was born Nov. 10, 1990 in Duluth.

Jordan attended Churchill Elementary School, Cloquet Middle School, and would have graduated next spring from Esko High School. He was an honor student with a passion for fishing and hunting especially around Lake Vermilion where he had many "secret" walleye spots. Jordan loved soccer and was named all-conferences goalie and played in the all star game this fall. He also was an excellent youth soccer referee.

Jordan is dearly loved and greatly missed by his mother and step-father, Barbara and Mike Krzenski; father and step-mother, Jeff and Kathi Tucker; sisters, Amanda and Breanna Tucker; grandparents, Bob and Danielle Stevens, Karen Tucker, Ron and Jean Tucker; great grandparents, Mary and Stanley Hill; uncles, Brad (Toni) Stevens, Rick (Maureen) Tucker, and aunt, Julie (Lowell) Fermenich; step-sister, Amber (Ben) Ward; step-brothers, Jake (Kristy) Krzenski and Jesse Krzenski; numerous cousins; and a multitude of very good friends.

Jordan had a great sense of humor, and a deep baritone voice that rumbled when he spoke. He was a tough man, a good friend, a great son, and the best brother. He will always be remembered, never forgotten, and his memories will be honored as well as treasured. In lieu of flowers, memorials are preferred to a memorial fund in Jordan's name at U.S. Bank.

VISITATION: 5 to 8 p.m. Wednesday, Nov. 19, 2008 in Nelson Funeral Care in Cloquet. The visitation will resume on Thursday, Nov. 20, 2008 from 2 p.m. until the 4 p.m. funeral service in Grace Baptist Church in Cloquet, followed with a time of fellowship in the church social hall. The family has selected Nelson Funeral Care of Cloquet to assist them with arrangements. See their online guest book at www.nelsonfuneralcare.net.

I am at a loss for words. A death at any age is not easy for loved ones. Stay strong. Teresa (Julie's Friend)

What a beautiful Angel!! When you least expect it, something -- a bit of music, a familiar scent -- will bring a memory to mind... In that moment, you'll know that a link remains -- a bridge from the past to the future... And you'll know that the life you loved in some way, goes on forever.

Your Family and Friends are in my thoughts and prayers! I understand what you might be going though in this trying time as we have also lost a child of a close friend of mine. He is also posted in today's obituary under Pierre Peters Jr. He was only 28 days old. Our Angels are with us! God Bless You!! Sincerely, Tarah
