While reading this guest book, searching for the words to say, I came across an entry that read Tracy always had a "big voice and a soft heart. She always stood up for me when I couldn't." I couldn't have said it any better. Tracy always looked out for me. She was one of a kind and made her mark. There arent too many people made that way. My condolences to the family.
