Tracy Kolker
Ochsman
December 8, 1954 – October 4, 2023
Tracy Kolker Ochsman of Potomac, MD and Boca Raton, FL passed away on Wednesday, October 4, 2023. Cherished wife, mother and Nana, she is survived by her beloved husband, Bruce Ochsman; daughters: Paris (Benjamin), January (Andrew), and Kate; sons: Steven (Jill), Chase (Amanda), and Lion; grandchildren: Harris, Cash, Chloe, Brooklyn, Knight, and Jordyn; brothers: Gary (Nancy), Jeffrey (Pam), and Aunt Betty Shapiro. Tracy was preceded in death by her parents, Ciss and Bernie Kolker and brother Steve Kolker. Kind, generous, and devoted, Tracy will be profoundly missed by her nieces, nephews and extended family and friends.
Born and raised in Washington, DC, Tracy graduated from The Maret School, and Rollins College. After college she enjoyed a successful career with Gucci and Cartier in Beverly Hills, CA. Raising her children in Potomac MD, surrounded by family, brought Tracy tremendous joy. She relished in juggling their many school and sports activities. Incredibly welcoming, Tracy loved hosting family dinners, holiday meals, and always went the extra mile with details to make it elegant and festive. She had a remarkable knack for bringing people together. Friendship with Tracy was a bond for life.
Moving to Boca Raton gave Tracy the opportunity to enjoy new hobbies like golf, pickleball, and canasta. Over the years, traveling, especially cruising, had become a favorite pastime. Most significantly, Tracy delighted in being Nana to her grandchildren and was excitedly looking forward to the new baby arriving in December.
