I played tennis with Traci for several years. I had not seen her in a few years but always loved her happy-go-lucky spirit and unbridled joy. My prayers go out to her family, especially her daughters that must be missing her so much.

It is extremely difficult to imagine a book club event and tennis outing without your infectious smile, wry wit and insightful perspectives. I have loved every moment of your impressionable presence, quiet strength, fond girlfriend embraces and loving manner, especially during my personal losses over the past several years.
I pray that the higher being keep you in the embrace of love for you will be truly missed. I know our ancestors have made a place for your loving spirit.
I offer prayers for your family to help them navigate this journey.
Love you Traci, my friend.

Julia and Camille your mother was admired and loved dearly. Cantrell you and the girls have my deepest condolences and you are in my thoughts and prayers.

To my dear sister and friend, Traci,
My heart is heavy as I say goodbye to such a gentle and loving soul. You were always so full of laughter and light - even when I was talking you into our next adven6, like those golf lessons at City Park or another match on the tennis court.
For ten years we sat in the same seats at Book Club, and you listened with so much patience and joy to every single one of my tales about Zech. Your kindness was boundless. I still cherish the beautiful flower arrang6and vase you and Toryah gave me when Pair passed away; it was a grace that allowed me to cry openly for a dog.
I'll never forget how you checked on me and showered my friend in prayers when my nephews were born at five weeks. You were always there when it mattered most.
I can still hear your voice in my head saying, "Girl, you better get it together!" I miss you dearly.
Cantrell, Camille, and Julia - you are in my prayers every single day. I pray that God continues to wrap His loving arms around you and gives you peace.
Love you, Traci, until we meet again!

Traci, I miss you so much every day. Your infectious smile, your easy laugh, your determination, your timeliness, your crazy driving, our daily texts, your use of my "warmly" closing, our nicknames for coworkers (mine, not yours ). You were such a daily presence for me for the past 16 years that I never considered life without you. I have so many great memories with you, from co-founding our book club, to doing yoga at the Grand Canyon. And there are so many other memories in between: Australia, our annual CCC walks, our trips to the Essence vendor booths, tennis (so much tennis! and your refusal to play in weather below 60°!), my podcast partner, my business partner. You played so many roles in my life and in the lives of so many others. I pray for peace for Cantrell, Camille, and Julia and your many family and friends. You will be terribly missed, Traci.

I´ll always have fond memories of Tra Tra: her kindness, laughter, smile, songs we both liked and laughed at and the joy she brought to so many who knew her. We have shared such good times in book club, birthday club and on the tennis court. Also, I´ll never forget the many conversations we had while riding back and forth to the tennis courts. I´ll miss you dearly my friend!!! Condolences to family, friends and others who I know will miss her equally as much.
