Tracy sure was a special lady. She had the sweetest spirit about her. We shared our love for all plants and flowers and had many conversations about them. I'm so sorry that she had to go through the struggles with her health but she is now seeing her reward in heaven! We will miss you and your sweet smile!

Tracey and I have been friends for over 30 years. We met in the Gaston County Clerk's Office. Tracey never met a stranger and had friends at the various places she shopped. She loved shopping and her flower garden. She loved her family so much and would do anything for them. She became part of our family over the years. She was a strong and caring person! I am so grateful that my Mom and I were able to talk to her the morning of her surgery. We are going to miss her so much but GOD needed her in more in heaven. I know she already has her flower garden up there. Our thoughts and prayers are with the family! 🙏🙏🙏
