Tracy's lifelong love for animals began early. As a teenager, she worked to ride horses and formed a special bond with a horse named Shane, whom she was eventually able to call her own. A gifted rider, she carried her passion for horses throughout her life. Tracy also provided professional pet grooming and pet-sitting services, known for her natural connection with animals-who always seemed to love her in return. She especially adored her own pets, including her dog, Sassy, and cat, Ricky.

In 1999, Tracy moved to Fairhaven by the Chesapeake Bay, where she made her home with her daughter, Erin.

She was an avid reader, a woman of strong faith, and most of all, she cherished time spent with her family and friends.
