Tucker David Genal, 31, of Los Angeles, California, passed away on December 11, 2025, leaving behind a deep and lasting sense of loss among his family, friends, and all who had the privilege of knowing him.
Identified by the Los Angeles County Coroner’s Office, Tucker is remembered not only for the milestones of his life, but for the quiet, consistent ways he showed care for others. His presence was marked by kindness, curiosity, gentle humor, and a steadiness that made people feel safe, heard, and valued.
Born on November 9, 1994, Tucker grew up with an enduring fascination for the world around him. He was a natural questioner, always eager to understand how things worked and why they mattered.
This curiosity shaped his education and carried into adulthood, influencing both his professional pursuits and personal relationships. He had a thoughtful seriousness about ideas and learning, balanced beautifully by a playful, often dry sense of humor.
Friends recall how easily he could lighten a tense moment with a well-timed joke or a warm smile, turning everyday interactions into shared experiences of ease and connection.
Family stood at the center of Tucker’s life. As a devoted son and sibling, he found joy in simple traditions—shared meals, familiar routines, and time spent together. These moments grounded him and shaped the way he loved others.
He extended that same devotion to his friendships, treating friends like family and nurturing relationships through attentiveness and care. He remembered birthdays, favorite songs, and small preferences, making people feel seen in ways that lingered long after the moment passed.
In his professional life, Tucker worked with quiet confidence and integrity. He gravitated toward roles that required patience, ingenuity, and collaboration, preferring to contribute meaningfully rather than seek recognition.
Colleagues admired his reliability, his calm approach to problem-solving, and his willingness to mentor and support others. His work reflected who he was: steady, thoughtful, and committed to doing things well.
Outside of work, Tucker’s passions added color and connection to his life. He loved music and film, often sharing playlists or hosting movie nights that sparked thoughtful conversations.
He found joy in food—cooking, experimenting, and bringing people together around a table. He was an avid reader and enjoyed the outdoors, taking quiet walks or small adventures that allowed him to notice and appreciate the details others might overlook.
