Tracy's Final Goodbye: Help Shelby and family Cope

My name is Melissa and Tracy is my cousin. I have fond memories of Tracy throughout my life.

Tracy always gave everything she had even if she had nothing. She was there for every holiday, every funeral, every occasion she was able to attend she would be there. She was always there for everyone.

Tracy absolutely adored her kids and her grandchildren. They all meant the absolute world to her!! She was the grandma that everyone wishes they had.

Yesterday Tracy lost her battle with life. After a brain aneurysm her 25-year-old daughter Shelby fought for her for weeks hoping for a recovery. She had to make the hardest decision of her life to let her mom go knowing that even if she did regain consciousness she would no longer have quality of life. Neither Tracy nor her family wanted that for her.

No 25-year-old girl should have to bury her mom let alone around Christmas.

Shelby and her husband also have three kids of their own to care for while having to manage all of this. We ask that you open up your hearts during the season of giving and give to this family who just wants to give her the proper goodbye. Any amount will help them be able to give my cousin the funeral and burial that she deserves.

Thank you and please keep this family in your prayers!
