On November 15, 2018, the most courageous kid I have ever known, at the age of 15, passed on to be with the Lord. He was handsome, intelligent, great sense of humor, and a quick wit. He was a gifted musician. His faith was stronger than that of some of the greatest preachers I’ve known. He was the best of us. His name was Colby Tucker. Colby fought Ewing’s sarcoma, a childhood cancer, for more than four years, enduring one surgery and 49 chemotherapy treatments. He never gave up; he was a fighter.

For much of my life I battled addictions. Drug and alcohol abuse led me to some extremely dark places. Looking back, I’m grateful that there were some good Christian people that helped me when I was at my lowest. If you or a loved one are struggling with addiction, I want you to know that there are good Christian people in Lenoir County that want to help. This is why our addiction recovery ministry at Jackson Heights OFWB Church exists.

Marie is a devoted and loving wife, daughter, mother, sister, grandmother, and friend. She’s the kind of person that keeps her friends and family laughing and puts a smile on every face she meets. Even through these hard times, she finds it in her to spread a little joy. Please join us in supporting this family with this benefit, and please remember her and her family in your prayers.
