From Mary Carey (originally from Mary Ann Roers, Tracy’s 1st babysitter in S.D.)
When Tracy was born, we had a wonderful couple nearby with 3 kids about the same age as ours. Mary Ann helped me really enjoy South Dakota. They were actually from a bordering city in Minn. Jim, I, Joe, Doug and Kathy had someplace to go and Mary Ann and her kids offered to watch Tracy as a baby. So, she was Tracy's first babysitter!!
