Samuel Robert & Reba "Penny" Usher Tucker

Samuel Robert Tucker (72) and Reba Joyce “Penny” Usher Tucker (69) of Magnolia, NC passed away suddenly from an auto accident on Wednesday, May 21, 2025.

Robert was born on March 2, 1953 in Duplin County. He was the son of the late Samuel L and Nettie Brown Tucker. He was also preceded in death by his brothers James L. Tucker and Roy Tucker. 

Penny was born on July 31, 1955 in Duplin County and was the daughter of the late Marvin and Emma Brown Usher.

They are survived by their son Robert “Jake” Tucker and wife April of Rose Hill; daughter Samantha Tucker of Magnolia; grandchildren Austin Tucker, Madison Tucker and Zack Tucker; Samuel’s sisters Esther Whitman and husband Stanley of Zebulon and Evelynn McKinnon of Rose Hill; Penny’s sister Mary Ann Albertson of Clayton; brothers, Jeff Usher of Louisiana and Tim Usher  and wife Lynn of California; numerous nieces, nephews and extended family and friends that loved both Samuel and Penny dearly. 

Robert and Penney were happily married for 51 years.  They were hard workers and great providers for their family.  The two of them enjoyed traveling to the mountains together, going to yard sales and collecting antiques.  They were good parents who loved their children and grandchildren with all their hearts.   Penny enjoyed cooking and was a great cook.  Robert enjoyed being outside and tending to his goats.  They enjoyed joking around, ‘picking on each other’ and spending time with their family.  Robert and Penny will surely be missed but they will never be forgotten. 

There will be a gathering with family and friends on Friday, May 30, 2025 from 6:00 pm to 8:00 p.m. at Quinn-McGowen Funeral Home in Wallace.
