A great loss to the animal kingdom. Our journey with Tracy started 5 years ago as we came into the Oceanside shelter as scared little kittens. During our stay we got to know Tracy and she nurtured us back to health and comforted us. She was responsible for placing 2 abandoned kittens together and than matched us up with the people she knew would take care of us. Over the past 5 years she has continued to watch over us as our pet sitter and comforted and cared for us while our family was away from home. She was truly a blessing to our home and will be greatly missed. Our comfort lies in the fact that Tracy is now watching over all the pets that have passed on waiting for their owners to join them. We couldn't think of a better person to take on this important responsibility.

Tracy I will never forget you! Your passion and love for animals were contagious! You taught me so much in the short time that I knew you.
Thank you.

I just heard of Tracy's passing today. I am just heartbroken!!! I also worked with Tracy at NCHS. Her love and dedication towards her beloved cats will never be forgotten. She gave countless hours to make sure everything was tended to towards the care of each animal before she would complete her day (weather on the clock or not). Her compassionate & loving nature will continue to be a inspiration to me in my life. My sincere sympathy goes to the family.

Tracy was one of the most kind and compassionate people I've ever known, an amazing woman who was a friend to everyone she met and who instantly made everyone feel comfortable. I will miss her incredibly warm personality and beautiful smile. My deepest sympathy to Tracy's family and friends.

Tracy, you had a gift. You were the cat whisperer. You were so loving and intuitive. The world is emptier without you. Love.

Tracy,
Thank you for always caring for our sweet little animals, even when others didn't. You were such a treasure and we are all so devastated to have lost someone who cared so unselfishly. I'll keep your memory with me forever.

Tracy was a kind person with a tender heart for animals.
I enjoyed meeting and knowing Tracy at NCHS and we shared many laughs over the antics of the shelter cats and kittens.
May the sweet memory of Tracy comfort your family and may we all remember Tracy in every act of grace and kindness towards the gentle creatures she loved.

She always had a great attitude, was willing to always help me and others, and did it with a smile. She helped me in my first job as a veterinarian and made my nights smooth. She will be missed but remembered fondly. May time fade the pain of our loss to reveal the joy of her life.
