No words can possibly describe how you will be missed. No condolences or sympathy for your family will ever truly be enough to express these emotions properly. Your radiant smile and vibrant personality will be missed forever. I know that heaven is so much brighter with an angel like you. I am so truly grateful to have had you in my life. Your friendship was a blessing to us all.

The last two years of my life were better years, for knowing Tricia. We quickly bonded over our connection with Ohio, and became fast friends. She was a light in this rather dreary world, and the life of the party. She is greatly missed already, and will forever live on in our hearts. Kathy, Jim, Michelle, Leigh, Krysti, and all - my loss is nothing compared to yours. Tricia loved you all so much and we talked of the family a lot. You are in my thoughts, and prayers. I am sorry for the burden of this loss for you.

God Bless!

I will always cherish the time I spent with Tricia at Alcoa. We talked politics, fashion and the importance of caring for your skin to keep that youthful glow. Tricia had a wicked sense of humor and above all else, she cherished her family. She will be deeply missed.
