“She worketh diligently with her hands” Proverbs 31:13. The family of Tammy Tucker congratulate her for her retirement after nearly 25 years of employment with the Cassville R-IV School District. Tammy began her career in food service as a substitute in 1999, and worked in the High School cafeteria for several years before becoming the head cook at the Intermediate School. Throughout her service, Tammy has inspired hundreds of children and nurtured many more through her dedication to excellent food service. After serving approximately 2 million meals, Tammy looks forward to life with her already retired husband, Carroll, their children, and two grandchildren. Mom, we’re so proud of you and we love you! Love, Carroll; Carolyn, Chris, Aubrey, and Paisley; Dustin and Ashley; and Marissa and Clover.
