Born July 21, 1967, in Moultrie, Georgia, he was the son of J.B. Tucker and Loretta Almand Tucker of Moultrie.

In his moments of relaxation, Willis enjoyed saltwater fishing, finding peace and contentment by the water. He was a kind and compassionate man, always ready to lend a helping hand to anyone in need. Willis was member of Pine Grove Baptist Church, and his faith was a cornerstone of his life, and Willis’ legacy of hard work, kindness, and faith continues to inspire all who knew him.

In addition to his parents, Loretta and J.B. Tucker, survivors include his son Blake Tucker and significant other Taylor Carey; grandchildren, Emberlyn Tucker, Ellanora Tucker; brother, John Tucker; nephew, Christopher Tucker; several other extended family members and friends.
