May 10, 2007: Ithaca, New York: Memorial for Bookseller Larry Tucker
"Tucker had a passion for rare books, rock and folk music, and heavy drinking. While the varied group of Ithacans he befriended spoke of his wild side (e.g. bartending New Year's Eve at The Nines and buying junky used cars to drive down to New Orleans or to California on a lark), they equally expressed their admiration for his kindness.
'He never said a bad word about anyone,' said Julie Jordan, the former owner of the Cabbagetown Café.'"
