joann, lloyd and family. My deepest sympathies in the passing of your daughter
Tracy. I also speak on behalf of your sears & roebuck family in your loss & your family will be in our prayers.
Words cannot express how our hearts hurt for all of Tracy’s family. Tracy was a light in this world with her beautiful smile, fun-loving spirit and positive mind. She fought valiantly and her legacy is the many, many lives she touched in her own. I pray to live my life like Tracy did. Truly she is one of the strongest women I have ever known. As a Christian wife, mother, daughter and sister, I know God gave her the strength and tenacity to fight as long as she did because of the love she had for her family especially Bob, Madison and Lexi. Madison and Lexi…she is with you and will be smiling down from Heaven so very proud of the young women you are. I see Tracy~everytime I look into both of your beautiful faces Madison and Lexi. We will be surrounding and lifting you all in our daily prayers for strength, comfort and peace.
We are sorry to learn of Tracys passing.
Your entire family is in our thoughts and prayers. May your
comfort come from your memories of her.

JoAnn, Lloyd and Family, From all the family members here in Green Bay, Our deepest sympathies for you loss, Our hearts and prayers go out to all to you all,
Sincere sympathy for the loss of Tracy. She really was an absolutely delightful woman. God bless you all.
My deepest sympathy to JoAnn, Lloyd, Bob, Madison, and Lexi. I am so sorry for your loss.. Tracy always gave me a wave and smile every time I passed by. .Lexi, I still treasure the beautiful rainbow you drew me when my husband died. My thoughts and prayers are with you all.
So sorry for your loss,
I am so sorry to hear of the passing of Tracy. Having Lexie and Madison as kindergarten students at Veritas brought me so close to Tracy. She was always there for the girls; encouraged them in their school work, friendships, and was respectful of me, their teacher. Many years after having them as students, I followed Tracy and her adorable family witnessing outstanding courage in Tracy, Bob, and the girls. Tracy will be greatly missed, but the fight she fought was admirable and one that showed strength, valor, and a strong reliance on the Lord.
Tracy inspired us all!
My heartfelt condolences to the entire family but especially to her husband Bob, their daughters Madison and Lexi, and to her sister Amy and her husband Neal.
If there is anyway we can ever help Bob, Madison or Lexi we will be there for you. We are friends for all eternity.
Blessings
