Thank you for all that have donated!!! We have surpassed our goal in a few short days! Your generosity is GREATLY appreciated!


Dear Friends and Community Members,

We are excited to announce our campaign to raise funds for a beautiful memorial bench in Leola Community Park, dedicated to Tracy Younker Chandler, whose memory has touched so many lives.

Tracy was a beacon of kindness, a source of strength, and a true friend to all. Her impact on our lives is immeasurable, and it is only fitting that we celebrate her legacy with a tribute that reflects her spirit and values.

Why a Memorial Bench?
A memorial bench in Leola Community Park will provide a serene space for reflection, connection, and remembrance. Positioned in a spot along the walking path where Mrs. Younker walks everyday and overlooks the community pool, where Tracy was on swim team and spent summers as a lifeguard, this bench will serve as a place for people to pause, remember, and find peace. It will be a symbol of the enduring love and respect we hold for Tracy, and a tangible reminder of the positive mark she left on all of us.

How You Can Help
To bring this vision to life, we need the support of compassionate and generous individuals like you. Here’s how you can contribute to this meaningful project:

Make a Donation: Your financial support will go directly toward the cost of the bench, its installation, and a commemorative plaque that will feature Tracy's and a special message. Every contribution, no matter the size, makes a difference.

Spread the Word: Share our campaign with your network. The more people know about this opportunity to honor Tracy, the more support we can gather.


Donation Details
Donations can be made through this campaign or via Venmo (@Carrie-Falduts). For more information or to discuss other ways to support the project, please contact us via email.

We are also planning a special event to celebrate the completion of the memorial bench and would love for you to join us in honoring Tracy and our community’s collective effort. Stay tuned for details!

In Closing
A memorial bench in Leola Community Park will not only commemorate Tracy but also stand as a testament to her community’s compassion and unity. Let’s come together to ensure her legacy continues to inspire and uplift us all.

Thank you for your generosity and support. Together, we can honor a truly remarkable individual while creating a space which will continue to inspire and comfort others, for years to come.

With heartfelt gratitude,

Friends and Family of Tracy Younker Chandler
