Not sure what to say?

I had the opportunity to work with Tracy at SIU. She was a remarkable professional and person. Educating future physicians and helping children in need were critical life goals for her. Tracy was truly dedicated to improving the lives of others. She will be missed.

My condolences.
We lost a great neighbor.
We all lost a valuable friend.
Sad.

I remember Dr. Lower with great respect and admiration during a very difficult time. As as a hospice home care registered nurse she was steadfast and unwavering in support of families with terminally ill children. To her patients she was commited, steadfast and unwavering in keeping them comfortable. I am very sorry for your loss. Our communities have lost a strong advocate for children and a mentor to adults.

Heartfelt sympathy, caring thoughts, prayers. Dr. Lower was an outstanding Doctor in so many wonderful ways for our two children. She was kind, caring, professional, and understanding during each medical appointment. She is a special angel. Wishing the family and friends: a song in your hearts; sunshine after the clouds; a rainbow after the rain; cherished memories. Peace.

So impressive as a medical student, I asked Tracy to be my daughter’s pediatrician. A bright, compassionate, skilled and caring physician, her contributions to our community were immeasurable. Gone too soon, not forgotten, her legacy continues in the kindness she showed and in the multitude of physicians she educated.

Dr. Lower was truly an angel sent from God. During the first two years of my premie son’s life, we were “regulars” on the peds floor of St. John’s. She was an exceptional doctor and human being. She truly saved his life more than once and gave us hope and support in our worst times. My hope is that you, her family, find comfort in the countless families that she so selflessly touched with her brilliance and compassion.
