Tracy MAHONEY Obituary
69, of Dayton, OH, passed away Saturday, July 17th, 2021. She was a graduate of Meadowdale High School Class of 1970 and is survived by her son Eric Mahoney, daughter-in-law Karen Levi, grandchildren Lila and Eli Mahoney and brothers Steve Burnett and Kurt Bothast. Tracy spent her career at South Community Mental Health Center as an intake counselor where she made many close lifelong friends that she considered to be like
family. She was passionate about helping others in need and this was exemplified through her work and personal relationships. Tracy was a great lover of the arts, in particular film and literature and also found inspiration and peace from being in nature on long hikes. She was a dedicated and loving mother, grandmother, friend and advocate for those less fortunate. Memorial service information will be shared with close friends and family at a later date. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to Hospice of Dayton (https://www.hospiceofdayton.org/) or The ALS Association (https://www.als.org/).

My deepest sympathies to Tracy's family and friends. She was a one of a kind woman. Beautiful on the inside and out. I found her fascinating right from the moment I met her. We had so many good times together, often laughing until we cried. Her laugh was so genuine. I will miss that the most! She was a wonderful listener and gave heartfelt advice. A truthful, loyal, and thoughtful friend. I'm so very thankful for our time together. I will cherish my memories with her forever. Rest now Tracy, you are no longer in pain. She fought a brave battle. Peace and love be with her.

To Tracy's family and friends,
I was very devastated to hear of her passing. I know she's fought long and hard on so many fronts. May she be resting in the Arms of God knowing everlasting peace, comfort, and joy! May her memory be eternal. God, please be with her family and friends during this time of grief and loss. I went to elementary school and high school with Tracy and then had seen her on various occasions throughout the years. She was absolutely beautiful inside and out. She had a great infectious laugh and a beautiful smile.She was very proud of her family. May she be blessed in heaven, rest in peace dear friend!
