Tracy loved to love on people. Until her health condition made it impossible for her to fight her fight anymore, she was guided into the hands of God on December 30th, 2020. Beloved partner of Randall Clark of 19 years. The loving and devoted mother of Amanda (Michael) McCray, Christopher (Kelly) Severtson, and Emily (Joel) Paulino. She was survived by her loving siblings Robin (Eric) Wondolkowski, Michael (Linda) Jacobson, Cherylynn Jacobson, and George Jacobson. Extremely grateful Grandmother of Amera, Christopher Jr., Michael, Matthew, Audrie, and JoAnne. Proud Aunt of Kailey, Victor, Stephanie, and Travis. She was preceded in death by her Mother Verna and Father Leonard Severtson. Also loved by many other family and friends.
Tracy was loved by so many people. Not only the friends from high school that she was still friends with today, but her friends from the Dollar Tree and Salvation Army that became her own special family. She was a single mother that always worked hard to provide what she could. Her children were always taught to love first. One thing that Tracy was extremely proud of was that even though she was a single mother, her children never had instability and always a full stomach. She was one heck of a cook. Tracy especially loved her music. She was the biggest fan of Elvis and Paul Mccartney. Nothing made her day more than sitting at her kitchen table with someone having a cup of coffee and listening to some jams. Tracy was known for being blunt and straight to the point, she did not cut corners in her words. Tracy had a motto, "No credit cards, no car loans, no mortgages". Although she lived frugally, nothing put a bigger smile on her face then when someone brought her over some lottery tickets.
She lived a minimalist lifestyle, she joked to her kids that they would have to fight over her butter dish when she passed. Tracy gave to anyone in need, even if it was her last dime. Whether it was a man outside of a store or $5 to someone on a bus that she felt needed it. She never stood quiet when someone was hurting someone else, at times risking her safety to do so. She always checked in with others, never expecting that person to ask about her or what she had going on. All she ever asked for was the best for her children and grandchildren. We could not have asked for a better mother, caretaker, and best friend. We all love her so much. She will surely be missed by everyone came into her life. Fly high for us our sweet angel. Watch down on us from above and remember your fighting spirit will forever be in our hearts.
