Westfall, Tucker William (16 MAY 2003 - 2 JUN 2018)

Tucker William Westfall, age 15, was born on May 16, 2003, and died on June 2, 2018, after a UTV accident.

Tucker was born in Marshfield, Wisconsin. He resided in Stevens Point. In 2007, the Westfall family moved to Athens so the children could grow up near family and his Dad could coach and teach for the Athens School District.

Tucker loved hunting and fishing and was always trying to up Dad and his brother on bagging the biggest buck or catching the largest fish. Tucker had a passion for sports playing high school football, wrestling and baseball. At his eighth grade graduation, he said his goals in life were to get married and play for the NFL. He loved watching movies over and over again and would recite the script before the actor would say them. Tucker was a very kind, gentle young man that loved spending time with his friends attending fire pit parties, prom parties, or just hanging out. He always looked forward to the Kayak fishing trips with his Uncle Tom. He will be remembered by many as a very caring person. Tucker loved life and will be so missed by his family and friends.

Tucker is survived by his parents, Dale and Tracy Westfall, his 16 year old brother, Tanner, his grandparents, Donald and Marlene Westfall and Dennis and Zenia Bohl, his great grandmother, Helen Zumann, his aunts and uncles (David and Donna Houlihan, Jim and Wanda Norge, Thomas and Lorene Mueller, Steve and Jessica Bohl and Gary and Georgine Albrecht), his godfather, Corey Westfall, great aunts and uncles and cousins.
