Starting out Tracy was Sherries uncle ,but as the years passed, Tracy became a great friend to me [a closeness like a brother].On the day he passed. Sandy said we should come to visit with them. On that day Tracy smiling like usual, brought up the time we went looking for deer and ended up on a minimal maintained road. We ended up way back in the woods. And wouldn´t you know it ,I let the clutch out and the truck killed [bad starter, truck won´t start]. What now, we decided to start walking out of the woods in the pitch dark. Started hearing voices ? Out here ? And wouldn´t you know it ,some one was watching over us. We got closer and there were some teenagers having a party in the woods. One of them even had a truck to pull us and get the truck started. Decided enough of this, went back to the trailer. I know Tracy is still laughing about this. Rest in peace your Buddy Steve

Tracy our Brother-in-law had lot's of funny stories!!! Here are 2 of my favorites,
The time he had a little upset stomach, went to the cabinet to reach for some Pepto Bismo, and took a swig of calamine lotion, oh my god we split a gut hearing him tell the story. He thought he was going to die, hollering for Sandy to call poision control, and him downing raw eggs.
My other favorite memory is when he showed us and our boys when they were young, Nick,& Josh, was how to pet a mosquito, one would come land on his arm he would flex his muscle, well it would trap that mosquito right there,and he could pet that mosquito, he would smile, and we would laugh .
Love, Neal,Tami,& Family
RIP Tracy.

This is my dear old dad with his dad Basil. I never got to meet my grandpa. But i know he was a kind hearted big man. My grandpa was the best dad to his son. He taught him how to be a good honest, loyal, strong, determined young boy that grew into a very special man. My dad made me the person i am. I am so proud to be his daughter.

I had the pleasure of working with Cary for a couple of years before he retired from Connexus Energy in April 2007. He worked with so many people who enjoyed his company, both inside and outside the company, that his party was held in the Community Room so all could wish him well. May God comfort his family at this difficult time.

Tracy's remarkable qualities, including his humor, kindness, and generosity, have left a lasting impact on those who were fortunate enough to know him. The memories of his laughter and the warmth of his big heart will be cherished by all who were touched by his presence. It is never easy to say goodbye to someone so beloved, and the void left by Tracy's absence will be deeply felt.

Tracy's legacy lives on through the memories, and his positive influence will continue to be felt in the lives he touched.
