Tracy had three nieces and one nephew, Somer, Skye, Tracie Lynn and Dakota Stone. He also had four great-nieces that adored him and gave him the nickname of “Uncle Willie.”
Tracy’s hobbies were front porch sittin’, fishing, listening to county music and watching Andy Griffith, Gunsmoke and the Rifleman. One of his most cherished memories was winning the Texas High School bull riding Championship in 1980. Where he rode the Bull named Funeral Wagon and scoring one of the highest scores of any past/present Texas High School State Champion.
He especially loved hanging out with his cousin, best friend and long-time running buddy, Keith Stone. They shared many years of mischief & laughter together.
