prove to us, he only takes the best. It's lonesome here without you, we miss
you so each day. Our lives aren't the same, since you went away. When days are
sad and lonely, and everything goes wrong. We seem to hear you whisper, "Cheer
up and carry on." Each time we see your picture, you seem to smile and say,
"Don't cry, I'm in God's keeping, we'll meet again someday." Pat married Jack

Tuck, Nolan James
BRIGHAM CITY - Our father, Nolan James Tuck, 85, passed away on April 3, 2005.
He died peacefully in the company of his family. Dad was born June 22, 1919 in
St. Anthony, Idaho. He was the second child of Rosella Archibald and Eldridge
A. Tuck. Growing up on a farm in Chinook, Montana with his three brothers and
three sisters, provided lots of happy memories and a strong work ethic. He had
his first paying job as a turkey herder at age six and continued working many
jobs to earn money to buy his own 160-acre farm before he graduated from high
school. Dad was a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints
and served in many ward and stake positions. Nolan married Marie Troxel on
October 28, 1938 in Havre, Montana. They were blessed with one daughter before
Marie passed away May 1941. Nelda Pedersen came into his life after he moved
to Ogden, Utah with his daughter to work. They were married on July 31, 1942
in the Logan Utah Temple. Blessings continued with five additional daughters
and two sons. Dad served his country in the Army Air Corps during World War II
in a special unit training pilots. For 29 years, Dad was a well-known and
respected businessman in the retail drug store industry. His career included
managing stores for Payless, Sav-On and Super Save Drugs. A dream came to
fruition in 1968 when Dad, Mom and the kids opened the Ambassador Toy and Gift
store, and later expanded to Ambassador Drug and Gift. It doesn't happen in
many families, but each child had the opportunity to work with Dad. It was
during those long hours at the stores where we learned the lessons about
honesty, hard work, sacrifice, kindness and charity to others. After suffering
for years from cancer, Mom passed away in November 1973. Dad sold his business
prior to marrying Lillith Jones on August 10, 1976. They made their home in
Brigham City, Utah, where he enjoyed his large garden, fruit trees and flower
gardens. He was very clever at making an d building things in his wood shop.
Dad and Lil enjoyed traveling. They went to Africa, took a Mediterranean
cruise and traveled with the Good Samers. They traveled all over the country
to visit their 13 children and families. They served two temple missions in
the Ogden Utah Temple. Lil passed away in February 2000. Dad is survived by
his sisters, Lola Keyes, Ogden, UT; Shirley Beth (Dan) Stokes, Paulden, AZ;
eight children Arlene (Fred) Norton, Vancouver, WA; Armelia (Gordon) Johnson,
Taylor, UT; James Tuck, Helena, MT; JeNae (Dennis) Lay, Helena, MT; Carol
