Don Leonard Tucker

Don L.Tucker, age 58, of St. Clair, PA,  Loved Husband ,Father and Friend. Passed away surrounded by his loving family on Sunday, February 8, 2026, at his home.

Born in Doylestown, PA on August 6, 1967, he was the son of the late George Henry Tucker and Cynthia (Guiher) Tucker.

From a young age, Don stood out. He earned medals in track and field and became a state champion in checkers. He had a passion for theater and was especially proud of performing as Frank-N-Furter in productions of The Rocky Horror Picture Show on South Street, at the TLA, and in Saturday Night Dead. He carried that bold, fearless spirit throughout his life.

Don was a man who worked hard and lived fully. Over the years, he worked on shrimp boats, drove trucks across the country as a proud member of Teamsters Local Union 107, and poured concrete for some of the largest buildings in Philadelphia — including projects at the Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia. He was a builder in every sense of the word — helping build cities, roads, and most importantly, his family.

He loved camping, riding his motorcycle, and spending time outdoors. But above all else, Don loved his family.

He is survived by his wife of 40 years, Sharon Marie (Duffy) Tucker; his children: Cody Tucker and (BriAnn Mistishin), Demi Tucker and (Andrew Casper), Alisha Tucker, David Shaner and (Stephanie Shaner), and Sandra Shaner; his grandchildren: Zoe Shaner, Colton Shaner, Kaleb Shaner,Beau Shaner, and Brynleigh Tucker; and his siblings: Wendy Tucker and Dale Tucker.

To his children, he was more than a father — he was Dad from the moment he stepped into that role, and he never stopped being one. Through every challenge, every mistake, and every hard season, he stayed. His love never wavered. He protected his family and stood strong when they needed him most. His loyalty and strength defined the man he was.

The Robert A. Evans Jr. Funeral Home, Port Carbon, is in charge of arrangements. Online condolences may be shared at www.robertaevansjrfh.com.

Don will be deeply missed, forever loved, and never forgotten.
