He died at Kenton Pointe Care Center in Maysville.

He was born on March 2, 1934, to the late Loretta Staggs Tucker and Everett Tucker.

Darrell was a devoted Christian. He attended Central United Methodist Church in Maysville for over 30 years and was a member of Hickory Grove Church in Tollesboro for over 25 years.

Darrell loved his family. He was employed for 37 years at Browning Manufacturing in Maysville.
