She was a dedicated animal lover, and patron of the Baltimore and D.C. music and arts scene. Tracy was a passionate artist, who loved to dance and spend time with her pets. She will be remembered as a truly unique spirit and light for all who knew her. Surviving are her daughter, Teal Sexton and husband Jeremy of Phoenix, MD; her mother, Mary Catherine McCloskey and husband Charles of Ocean View, DE; and an abundance of loving friends. Services are private. Arrangements have been entrusted to Myers-Durboraw Funeral Home in Westminster, MD.
