Tracey was a loving mother, sister, aunt, cousin, and friend with a generous soul who was always one of the first people to offer a hand to help others. She enjoyed vacationing in New Hampshire with her family and friends, visiting the same area yearly for over 20 years. Her favorite way to pass time was sitting outside on her deck playing catch with her beloved dog, Roxy. Tracey had a fondness for all dogs, especially Boxer breeds and German Shepherds, often donating to various dog shelters and organizations over the years. Tracey enjoyed NASCAR races, following the Patriots and Bruins, and relaxing in the sun.

The family would like to thank the staff at the Pope Rehabilitation Center for their kindness and support for Tracey and her family over the past month.
