A valued SSSB member and friend to many has passed…
It is with sad and heavy hearts that we wish to inform you that charter SSSB musician, Tracy Luna, passed away early Tuesday, December 21.
Tracy’s nearly 18 month fight with Pancreatic cancer led to a stroke that occurred a week ago that resulted in his being submitted to Cookeville Regional Medical center. He was released later last week and returned home where he was under care by his family assisted by Hospice. His stroke left his right side in paralysis and he was unable to speak, but could hear and see his family.
Tracy will be missed by the SSSB family as well as his group of fellow musicians who appreciated his friendship and musical talents. We ask that you keep his wife, Laura, and his two sons, Victor and Ben, in your thoughts and prayers at this difficult time…made especially difficult by the holiday season. We will will pass along any additional information as it is announced.
It is planned to recognize Tracy’s contribution to the SSSB as a charter member at the coming February 20 concert.
Tracy was simply one of the finest fellows (and musician!) one could be blessed to know. He will be greatly missed.
