Not sure what to say?

I am so sad to hear the news about Tracy's passing. I absolutely adored her. I got to know her over the many, many years I bought tickets from her for Milwaukee Ballet and school. She was always so wonderful to me. She was such a happy person, easy to talk to and just so kind. She made you feel like your positive experience was her #1 priority. I was so sad when she retired from the ticketing office b/c I knew I wouldn't hear her voice on the other end of the line or be able to pop in...

I am beyond sad to hear this awful news. Tracy was a huge part of our family when my girls were young. By far their FAVORITE babysitter. She always had a smile on her face, always. I ran into her about a year ago and she looked great. Honestly, she never aged. Still looked like the same young Tracy.
I am sending a huge hug and love to her sweet Mother and Todd. This is so unfair.

Tracy was a wonderful person with kind, caring soul. She was such a friendly person, someone you felt so comfortable having a conversation with. I went to college at Eau Claire and enjoyed getting together with Tracy in college and after college with her husband Todd. RIP Tracy.
