It is with an extremely heavy heart today that I share my brother’s passing, Roger Tuck after a long battle with cancer. He passed away in his home with his devoted wife Brenda by his side. He fought this battle with his almighty will and determination as everyone that knew him would know. There is no doubt he will be greatly missed by so many; his family, friends, colleagues at Transwestern and many others he touched with his gregarious personality and wit, like a celebrity in his own right I often would say. Reminiscent of the rambunctious and notorious days of Dundalk High followed by 4 yrs as Maryland’s Terps midfielder, a three-time All-American earning first-team in 1976, third-team in 1974 & 1975, and a member of the 1973 & 1975 National Championship Teams. He was honored in 2014 as one of 10 players named to the U.S. Lacrosse Greater Baltimore Chapter’s Hall of Fame, and in 2002 awarded as one of Maryland Terps named to All ACC’s 50th Anniversary Men’s Lacrosse Team. Featured twice in Sport’s Illustrated in the 70’s, Roger was like a Dundalk hometown celebrity! But most of all what he leaves behind is a legacy of family and friends that loved him with endless stories and memories to last a lifetime.
Until I see you again, I’ll forever be proud to be your brother.
