Obituary for Tracy Lynn Thomas
Tracy Lynn Thomas, 52, passed away January 30th 2022.
Tracy was a 1992 graduate of Weaver School and Workshop in Tallmadge. Despite her challenges, she led a full and happy life. In earlier years she participated in the Special Olympics of Ohio, locally and in Columbus, always finishing in the top three. Tracy had a love for music and you could often hear her singing her own version of the songs while listening with her Walkman and headphones. If you were nearby, it would make you stop what you were doing, smile and realize it’s truly the simple things that bring us the most joy. Spending time with her Dad watching cowboy movies, taking road trips or simply spending time together were things she looked most forward to. Being a part of Tracy’s life was a gift to all who knew her.
Preceded in death by grandparents Mel and Marjorie Thomas and Wilson and Irene Helton; Mother Linda Thomas, brother Andrew Thomas and nephew Nathanael Weimer.
She leaves behind her beloved best friend Clifford (the Big Red Dog) also known as “Wrinkles” who she was never without. Survived by her Father, Gail Thomas; sister Debbra (Steve) Weimer; nieces and nephews, Jessica (referred to as “Jetta” by Tracy), Sean, Caitlin and Dalton; many aunts, uncles and cousins.
Funeral services will be held Saturday, February 5, 2022 at 12 pm at Dunn-Quigley Funeral Home Stow Chapel, 3333 Kent Rd., Stow, Ohio. Interment will follow at Stow Cemetery. Family and friends will be received on Saturday from 10 am until the time of the service at the funeral home.
