She was a 60-year resident of Annona and was employed as a nurse at Red River General Hospital for the 13 years prior to her retirement. She was a devoted church member, and her Christian faith was evident in the way she lived her life. She was well-known for the kind, compassionate care she gave while working as a nurse, a job she loved. She also loved to cook and to sew, and excelled at both. She took great pride in her children and grandchildren and their accomplishments. She never met a stranger and was a kind and generous friend to all she encountered. She will be greatly missed by her loving family and friends. She was preceded in death by her mother and father, Oscar and Rena Tucker; her husband, Thomas J. Tharp; a granddaughter, Lisa K. McKinney; and six brothers, Alfred, Perry, Willie, Bennie, Willard and E. J. Tucker.
