Tracy encompassed everything an RN meant. Compassionate, hardworking, supportive. Her heart was with her profession and her patients. Her family meant the world to her, and she'd tell stories about her children with fondness. She was there when you needed help or advise, her smile at the ready. It was with sorrow I heard of her diagnosis, and sadness to read of her death. May she rest in peace.

Tracy was a kind nurse who helped me become oriented to the nursing floor I was assigned to, she made me feel welcomed and accepted as a fairly new nurse. Very kind and compassionate and always willing to help others. My condolences to her family. Know that she touched many nurses she worked with. Sorry for the loss, Mona
