And his grave is in the Masonic Circle section of Michigan Memorial Park, near Flat Rock, Michigan. There is a bronze marker in the ground with 2 Masonic symbols on it, as well as a side view of the Tucker car. The marker reads in part: "TUCKER" and "Founder of the Tucker car".

I don't know. What I do know is that he was religious, and would typically begin his board meetings in prayer. John went to Loyola University, Chicago and Preston Junior was gong to go to Notre Dame as seen in the Movie. "The Man and his dream." This of course does not imply that he was Catholic, as many non Catholics are allowed into these institutions. Catholicism prohibits belonging to any Masonic Sect.
