Family and friends meant the world to Tracy, she had a heart of gold with a one in a million personality, which included the most beautiful, sometimes warped, sense of humor. Her infectious smile, her presence and her laugh would light up the room. With Tracy, there was never a dull moment. Once you met Tracy, you could never forget her.
