Donate in memory of Tracy Zales

With the heaviest of hearts, we come together to share the news of the passing of Tracy Farinas Zales. She sustained a sudden and major aneurysm that caused extensive and irreversible brain damage incompatible with life. After honoring her selfless wish to donate her organs to those in need, Tracy left this world surrounded by her family and her soulmate, Jack, holding her hands.

Tracy was our angel and in her passing gave two families the miracle they were praying for. We would give anything to just have her here with us, but feel comfort in knowing that her heart is beating somewhere in this world, and giving someone a second chance to live and make memories with their loved ones.

Tracy was fierce in every way: her independence, her individuality, her love and generosity and her passion for life. She was a musician, a damn good bartender, a dog mama extraordinaire, a devoted daughter who promised to care for her parents in their twilight years, the baby of her family and the love of Jack’s life. In honoring the many ways she touched everyone who knew her, we are seeking to raise funds to help cover funeral costs and to make a donation in her name towards brain aneurysm research. Please consider donating and sharing. The Zales family extends their deepest gratitude for your support.
