Celebrating the life of
Tracy Evans Sauers
June 11, 1958 - December 06, 2019
Tracy was reliable, opinionated, and someone you could always seek for advice. Her strength was known to everyone. She was a rock.
Tracy Evans Sauers, 61, of Savannah, passed away unexpectedly on Friday, December 6, 2019.
Tracy was born in Savannah on June 11, 1958 to Charlie and Elsie Lucken Evans, also of Savannah.
Tracy was reliable, opinionated, and someone you could always seek for advice. Her strength was known to everyone. She was a rock. She was a loving daughter, sister, wife, mother, aunt, grandmother and friend to all. She will be missed by many.
A 1976 graduate of Savannah High School and 1980 graduate of Georgia Southern University, Tracy was a cherished member of the Phi Mu Fraternity. She started her career in Shipping and Logistics at DJ Powers and ended her career at John S. James Company.
On June 19, 1993, Tracy got bamboozled into marrying into the Sauers family by taking Joseph Gerald Sauers, Jr. as her husband. She inherited three amazing kids and then brought her own son, Zack, in the world in 1994.
Tracy is preceded in death by her father, Charlie; and her grandparents.
In addition to her husband, Tracy leaves behind her mother Elsie; children, Kelli Sauers Henderson (Al), Joseph Gerald Sauers, III, Andrew Carter Sauers, Sr. (Brandi), and Zachary Evans Sauers; grandchildren, Carter and Callan; brother, Nicky Evans (Wendy); nephews, Travis (Natalie) and Nicholas (Clarissa); great-niece, Rylee Grace; and several aunts and uncles.
Visitation will be held from 5:00 p.m. until 6:30 p.m. on Thursday, December 12, 2019 at St. Peter the Apostle Catholic Church; Recitation of the rosary will begin at 6:30 p.m.
A Mass of Christian Burial will be celebrated by Monsignor P. James Costigan at 11:00 a.m. on Friday, December 13, 2019, at St. Peter the Apostle Catholic Church.
Remembrances may be made to St. Peter the Apostle Catholic Church, 7020 Concord Road, Savannah, GA 31410 or American Diabetes Association, 5105 Paulsen St # 236, Savannah, GA 31405.
My deepest sympathy to Zach and the entire Sauers family.

My heart breaks for Mrs. Evans and Nicky. I pray that God will comfort them and bring peace within their hearts that only He can at this time of pain and loss.

I am saddened by the loss of Tracy who I absolutely adored. I met her in Junior High and I was her big sister in our High School Sorority Vene Ici. She was a friend who’s smile could light up a room. She was a good person and a great friend. I’m still in shock that she is no longer with us but know that God has her in his arms. She will be missed by so many. My condolences to Tracy’s family and to Joe. May her memory be eternal.

To know Tracy was to automatically love her. How could anyone not? With a contagious smile, funny antics and heart of gold, there wasn't anything that you couldn't love. I was shocked and saddened to hear of her passing. My prayers have been and will continue to be for comfort for her family and close friends. Unfortunately, I won't be able to make the visitation services due to my child's school function. My prayers will be with everyone grieving the loss of this incredible woman. God bless you all.
