Andrew 'Andy' Tucker Jr., 24, of Bentonville, Arkansas, left this world too soon on June 13th, 2024. He was born on October 2nd, 1999, in Rogers, Arkansas. Andy brought joy and laughter to everyone around him with his infectious enthusiasm and zest for life. His love for fun and good times will be deeply missed by family and friends who had the privilege of sharing in his journey.

Andy was smart, kind, charismatic, authentic, and never met a stranger. He cherished time with his friends and family. He was a bright and adventurous soul with big dreams and ambitions. He loved being outdoors, spending summers at Beaver Lake with friends, and playing a wide range of sports, including football, baseball, and golf, just to name a few. If he wasn't playing on a team or at the driving range, he was cheering on the Kansas City Chiefs or the Arkansas Razorbacks – he loved calling the Hogs from a sideline or sofa.

Andy is survived by his mother Maria Rice and stepfather James Rice, and his father Andrew Tucker and stepmother Suhana Tucker; siblings, Sabryna (Tristan) Vaughan, William Tucker, Sofia Tucker, and Daniel Tucker; grandparents, David and Martha Tucker of Gentry, Arkansas, and Darlene Thomson of Pensacola, Florida; nephew, Truitt Vaughan; niece, Claira Vaughan; uncles, Robert Owens, Richard Montez, Joshua Thomson, Jonathan Thomson, and Christopher Thomson; aunties, Leslee Foreman, Sereena Thomson, and Misty Thomson; and many cousins and extended family who love and miss him dearly. He was preceded in death by his maternal grandfather, Retired Master Chief (USN) William Thomson of Pensacola, Florida.

A celebration of Andy's life will be held at 2pm on Sunday, June 30, 2024 at Benton County Memorial Park. 3800 W Walnut St., Rogers, AR 72756
