Tracey K. Berhow was born on May 26, 1991, to Randy and Wanda Berhow in Crookston, MN.
Tracey lived a very vibrant life and was surrounded by close family and lots of love as she grew up. She spent many days playing with her siblings and cousins. Tracey had a very special bond with her twin, and growing up she and Lacey delighted in running in separate directions and causing mischief and shenanigans. She was a very devoted mother, and her kids were her absolute world. She was an extraordinary animal lover, and her dog Cleo held a very special place in her heart. Tracey had a calling for helping others, and that showed more than ever while she was taking care of her residents while working at area nursing homes. She could warm any heart with her beautiful smile and laughter. She was the most selfless person and was always putting others’ needs before her own. Tracey also had a very close group of friends growing up.
