So sorry to hear of the passing of your Mom. As a member of a family touched by breast cancer, I understand the pain you must be feeling, but know that, if you're any example of the good she did while she was alive, she did much good in the world.

Dear Tom, Tom and Tim
My heartfelt condolences for your loss. I've grown up listening to my mom's wonderful stories about how much fun she had living with her best friend Tracey for 6 years of their lives. There are photos I have of Tom and I playing together when we were toddlers when our mom's would get together to have girl time. My family and I are praying for your family in this difficult time and I know my mom will forever tell stories of Tracey and she will hold those memories close to her heart. Hold onto all your wonderful memories and know that she is watching over you in heaven.

Hopefully we all have that one friend in life, that no matter if you talked to them 5 minutes ago or 5 years ago, as soon as you spoke, it was as if you never spent any time apart. Tracey was that friend for me. She always asked about my family and shared stories of hers. Tracey epitomized warmth, kindness, courage and grace. Each time I talked to her, we shared a laugh over things from the past and plans for sharing time together in the future. Tom and family, God took one of the best when he called Tracey home, but I am thankful and blessed to have had her, if only for a brief moment, in my life. May your memories bring you comfort.

To the Gannon family, I was saddened to read of the death of Tracey. Even though I did not know her personally, I would like to offer you some words of comfort from the Bible. At Phillipians 4:6 and 7, we are told that with prayer and supplication making our requests known to our heavenly Father, the peace of God that excels all thinking will safeguard our hearts and our minds. Know that in your quietest moments, God will be there to console you and to carry you through this most difficult time.
