Phyllis Mary Tracy, a cherished mother, grandmother, and friend, peacefully passed away on April 11, 2025, in Woodhaven, Michigan, at the age of 95. Born on September 3, 1929, in Evart, Michigan, she graced this world with her warmth and kindness for nearly a century.

Phyllis was a woman of simple pleasures, finding joy in the art of baking and the exploration of travel during her younger years. Her baked goods were a testament to her love and care, warmly shared with family and friends alike. In her adventurous youth, Phyllis delighted in discovering new places, creating cherished memories that she would fondly recount to those around her.

She was preceded in death by her beloved husband, Harry Tracy, with whom she shared a life filled with love and companionship. She was also preceded by her parents, Ezra and Bessie Wirth, her daughter, Rebecca Ross, her son, Harry Tracy, and five siblings who she dearly missed.

Phyllis leaves behind a legacy of love through her seven grandchildren, who will continue to hold her memory close to their hearts. Her presence in their lives was a guiding light, and her spirit will live on in each story shared and each memory cherished.

Her family and those who knew her will remember Phyllis as a beacon of love, resilience, and kindness. Her gentle spirit and warm smile touched the lives of many, leaving an indelible mark on all who had the privilege of knowing her.

May she rest in eternal peace, reunited with those she loved, and forever remembered by the ones she leaves behind.
