The world lost a beloved and devoted wife and mother on December 23, 2023. Teresa “Tracy” Moore Gardiner (52) of Reidsville, NC went home to be with The Lord surrounded by her loving family. Tracy fought a lengthy battle with Breast Cancer but that never stopped her from being there for her loved ones. She loved spending time with family, especially loved being “GiGi” to her grandbabies, who brought so much joy to her life. Tracy was of the Christian Faith and a member of Bible Baptist Church, 1213 Boyd Road, Reidsville, NC 27320. The loss of her presence will be deeply felt by all those who loved her. 

Her memory will forever be treasured by her loving husband of 9 plus years, Dennis Gardiner; daughter, Samantha Connolly (Kevin); son, Seth Terrell; stepson, Zachary Gardiner (Kristen); grandbabies, Audrey Terrell, Silas Terrell, Layke Connolly and Asher Connolly; mother, Barbara Markham Styons; brothers, Dale Moore Jr., Wade Styons (Jennifer) and Dustin Styons (Andrea); sisters, Leanne Slack and Mandy Meeks. Along with a host of loving family members, friends and her loving furry companions Pistol Pete and Sasha. 

In addition to her loved ones, Tracy was preceded in death by her dad, Richard Dale Moore Sr.

The family will be receiving friends to celebrate her life from 6:00 to 8:00 pm on Friday, December 29, 2023, at Bible Baptist Church. Tracy wanted a graveside service, but she always said, “If the weather is too cold outside, please be considerate of our friends and move the service inside;” therefore, Funeral services will be held at 1:00 PM on Saturday, December 30, 2023, at Bible Baptist Church with Pastor Mickey Alcorn officiating. The burial will follow at Evergreen Memory Gardens.

The family requests NO FLOWERS, but at her request, please make memorial contributions to Bible Baptist Church, 1213 Boyd Road, Reidsville, NC 27320 for Missionary work.

To plant trees in memory, please visit the Sympathy Store.
