Director
Tracy Sosa, a mother to Gabriella, Owen, and the late Devon Sosa, as well as a devoted aunt to Madelin and the late Johnny Kinney, currently serves as the Jack of All Trades for Fidelity Paper. Beyond the demands of her professional life, Tracy finds peace in simple pleasures, often indulging in her favorite pastime of watching Jeopardy and Wheel of Fortune from the comfort of her couch, or outdoors, where she can be found tending to her yard or joyfully engaging with her dogs.
The bond Tracy shared with her nephew Johnny was not only close but unbreakable. From the moment of Johnny's birth, Aunt Tracy became one of his favorite people. Their connection was evident in the countless outings and extended periods of quality time they spent together. As Johnny's health declined and leaving the house became challenging, Tracy found creative ways to bring joy to his life. Even confined to the house, Johnny would make his way to Tracy's home, where he, along with Tracy, her boyfriend Michael, and her dogs, Hunter and Sadie, created a sanctuary of joy and laughter. Their shared love for Jeopardy and Wheel of Fortune echoed through the house, punctuated by spirited cheers and good-natured banter.
During the last six months of Johnny's life, Aunt Tracy took on the responsibility of caring for his hair—a task not to be taken lightly, considering Johnny's full head of beautiful, thick, curly locks. The haircare routine became a time of bonding, filled with laughter and heartfelt conversations as well as Johnny’s signature questionable dance moves. Tracy's commitment to ensuring Johnny's comfort and happiness during this challenging period reflects the depth of their connection.
The memories shared between Tracy and Johnny serve as an everlasting source of inspiration and guidance in Tracy's role as a board member. Her commitment goes beyond the professional realm; it is a heartfelt mission to ensure that Johnny's memory and legacy endure. Tracy strives to capture and preserve the essence of Johnny's joy for life, leveraging her experiences to contribute meaningfully to the foundation. In honoring Johnny's spirit, Tracy embraces the responsibility of being a beacon of light, ensuring that his infectious joy and zest for life continue to inspire and uplift others.
