To Tracy's family and friends,
My heart and prayers go out to all of you during this very difficult time. Although Tracy and I lost touch after I moved to California, I remember her friendship with fondness and I am deeply saddened by her passing. She will be greatly missed by everyone who knew her.

Mary & John, may GOD be with you during this time. I feel for you and your loss. Children are a blessing from GOD, but for some reason he felt that Tracy needed to be with him in a better place.They say that in time you will heal but the memory of Tracy will stay with you for ever.

To Tracy's Family,
Although it has been years since I have seen Tracy, I will always remember her bright smile from High School. I cannot imagine the heartache of your loss. I hope you will be able to find some comfort in Jesus words: "Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls." (Matthew 11:28-29)
May God comfort and ease your pain,

I had a few classes with Tracy in High School. I am overwhelmed with sadness and shock. This is just "too close to home." May her beautiful smile and warm heart that she had towards everyone never be forgotten.

On behalf of the animals at the Council Bluffs Animal Shelter, I want to thank you for your thoughtfullness in selecting SOLAS (Support Our Local Animal Shelter) as one of the suggested organizations for memorials in Tracy's name.
Please accept our condolences for your loss.

I live in Las Vegas, Nevada, but was just recently in Omaha visiting family. While I was walking around and shopping in The Old Market, I saw a missing persons flyer in one of the shop windows. I stopped to check it out and saw a picture of such a dear, sweet, beautiful person....I was so sad at what I read on that flyer and hoped and hoped so badly that she would be found alive and well and everything would be ok. Today when I got on-line and saw Tracy's name in the obituaries, my heart just sank. Words cannot even begin to express how sorry I am for your loss. Please know although we've never met and I live far away, my thoughts and prayers will be with you and your family. May you rest in Peace Dear Tracy. ~Jennifer

Mary and John,
Our thoughts and prayers have been with you in the past weeks and our hearts will continue to be with you. We have known Tracy and you for many years, ever since Tracy and Jeanne became very good friends; even when we couldn't remember whether to call her Tracy or Denese. :o) We have such good memories of Tracy and we know that you have many memories to give you comfort and strength during this painful time. We believe that Tracy is in a peaceful place and pray that you will find some measures of peace whenever they come to you.
Thank you for sharing Tracy with us.

In the very short time that I had come to know Tracy, I feel as if I was blessed to have met one of the nicest people imaginable. We laughed, talked about our shared love for animals, and she even encouraged me to adopt a new dog.
To her family, I can only give my deepest regard, and I want you to know, that althougth I may never meet you personally, your daughter represented what a great family she grew up in, and her love for you was the point of many conversations as we sat next to each other while training for our new job.She talked about her love for her parents, and even showed me where her Dad lived on the Microsoft Streets mapping system.
To be absent in the body is to be present with the Lord....May she rest in peace.

Mary and John,
I love you both. I grew up with you and Tracy and now feel as if I have been ripped apart. I am so grateful that my childhood and teenage years are filled with so many happy memories because of being a part of Tracy's life. Tracy was my best friend. I will cherish those forever, and I will always be here for you.

To the family, (pets), and friends of Tracy Denses Gostomski Tribble:
Although I never personally met Tracy, nevertheless, you have my heartfelt sympathy for the loss of your loved one. I pray that you will find peace where there has been pain, and with time,your heart will heal, so that you can face tomorrow, with a renewed sense of strength and courage. Nothing loved is ever truly lost and pain is a small price to pay, for all the memories that Tracy has instilled in so many lives. May God grant you the strength to help each of you, through this very difficult time.

Dear Mary and John,
No bond is as great as that between a parent and child, nor will that bond be broken by the death of your child. May the bad memories of the past few weeks fade and the happy memories soon fill all the space in your heart. Hold each other's hand as you once did and find comfort in each other's farewell embrace.

Tracy had a genuine warmth about her that made others feel comfortable just being near her. When she worked at the front door of Arthur's Bar and Grill, her bright smile, cheerful greeting, and beautiful face made everyone who entered feel welcome and comfortable. Her true love of animals and her ability to give heartfelt advice to her friends and coworkers demonstrated the kindness in her spirit and her soul.
Tracy, you will forever be remembered and always missed by everyone who knew and loved you. You have more friends and are loved by more people than you could have ever known.
To Tracy's family - I hope you know how fondly Tracy is remembered by those she has touched in her life. God will take care of her in Heaven, as she was a loving and caring soul with a great heart.
With Love,
Tracy's coworker at Arthur's in the late 1990's

Mary & John,
I used to live next door to you all on Pierce St. I have such fond memories of you both and Tracy. I have thought of all of you often over the years. I still remember going on the little plane you had and I was so sick, and there was Tracy laughing and having a blast. I send you my deepest sympathy and will keep you in my prayers.
