Bart had a wonderful, Heaven sent gift of joy. Even in his last days, he always found a way to look at his life and all life in a positive way. His big laugh was heard by everyone he talked with, every day.
Through the toughest of times, even our last conversations the day before, he was hopeful and had big plans for the year ahead. His focus was always planning forward. Look forward, he would say. Have a plan. His overriding focus was to continue, in The Valley of Temples, to search out our family predecessors and to ensure every Temple ordinance was complete for each one! He had hundreds of names, personally researched, in his temple ready file, with hundreds already having been completed, and was so excited to get started!
He said Mom, I am so happy and having so much joy doing this. Now, his joy is full. He wants us to Have a plan! Parents, siblings, grandchildren, cousins to carry on and help. To be happy in our days, loyal in our worship of God and Christ forever.
The obituary was written by his mother, Geraldine Tracy.

I enjoyed the times I spent with Bart.
His assertiveness and confident manner was refreshing to be around.
I'm a better person for the brief time that shared with me.
I pray for your comfort and strength.
He will not be forgotten.
