Joe, We are so sorry that you still have not found Tracy. We think of your daughter often and wonder if any new leads have turned up. We cannot imagine what you and your family have to go through waiting for her return. We are here for you and hope that you receive the peace that you and your family deserve.
Deanna and Jason Bagwell, DTSSC

To: Ghost Writer / kats@chathouscares.com Thank you for your quick reply. I’m familiar with the sources you listed but I needed to check after seeing your posts. I did post your comments and web links on this site in case someone else wants to access those links for additional information. However if you want these deleted please advise. Thank you for the help and awareness you have brought to our daughter’s case! God Bless!

Dear Joe, I am a local as you can tell by my writing.We write(a group of 9 women from around the U.S. to bring awareness to the missing. We write under ghost writer because we have found that there are alot of weird people out there and if James Hataway gets out, I certainly do not want a visit from him or friends. The information on the Cardio Club was taken from these two sources: http://www.myfoxorlando.com/dpp/news/orange_news/053109FamilyandfriendscontinuetheirsearchformissingOcoeewoman http://jenniferkesse.com/forum/index.php?topic=46. Another place who say they have talked to individuals is blink on crime. http://blinkoncrime.com/2009/06/05/prime-suspect-in-disappearance-of-ocoee-woman-tracy-ocasio-james-hataway-linked-to-jennifer-kesse/ Hope this helps, if you need anymore assistance please do not hesitate to ask! Sincerely the chat house group! P. S. all links are provided on his bibliography on our web site!

I continue to read comments from blogs or articles in the news previously made about James Hataway we’ve not been able to confirm but could lead the investigation into a new phase. IF ANYONE OUT THERE HAS ANY KNOWLEDGE OF WHEN JAMES HATAWAY FREQUENTED THE CARDIO CLUB WORKOUT PLACE NEXT TO THE TAB ROOM BAR IN ORLANDO FL FROM WHERE TRACY WAS LAST SEEN PLEASE MAKE CONTACT WITH US THROUGH THIS WEBSITE USING OUR GUESTBOOK!! RUMORS HAS IT HE FREQUENTED THIS WORKOUT PLACE FOR A WHILE BY EITHER "POSING" AS A PERSONAL TRAINER OR ACTUALLY HELPED OTHERS WORK OUT OF THIS LOCATION. KEEP IN MIND WORK OUT PLACES SUCH AS THESE MANY TIMES OFFER "FREE TRIALS" SO THIS DOES NOT NECCESSARELY MEANS HE WORKED THERE! THIS COULD ALSO LINK JENNIFER KESSEE’S CASE TO THIS MAN!! IF YOU HAVE ANY INFORMATION REGARDING THIS TIP PLEASE MAKE CONTACT WITH US OR the Ocoee Police department at 407-905-3160 or 407-905-3161 OR CrimeLine at 1-800-423-TIPS. CrimeLine is 100% anonymous and your conversation will not be recorded. !!

I want to send out my prayers to you and your family. There is not a day that has passed by that I have been wondering if she has been found. I check this site all of the time for updates. Want you all to know that my heart goes out to the family.

Just wanted to say that I do not know any of you but for some reason, this story touches me. I was on vacation in Florida when this was first all over the news and I have popped on this site time and again to see if Tracy was ever found. I am so sorry for what your family is going through. I cannot imagine the sorrow in your hearts. I hope that you find Tracy soon.

Friend from Virginia here that is always hoping to hear that Tracy will come home to you. I pray but i wish i could somehow help.

We rejoice with your family over the news of charges being filed! We continue to pray that you will find the answers you so desperately need.
Angie and Kevin Elkins

02/03/2010 @ 12:07 AM

Thank you all for your thoughts and encouraging words! Today’s news brings us hope that this might be the first step to put away this animal and keep him from ever hurting another woman. Hopefully, God willing the publicity and exposure of Rachel’s case can leads us to get the answers we seek. I continue to hope and pray one of these days someone with knowledge of what happened to our daughter will finally come forward. God Bless!!
Joe Ocasio

02/02/2010 @ 10:32 PM

Joe, I just wanted to let you know that we are still praying for Tracy and your family that we catch a break here soon. hang in there, and know that you have a ton of people in your corner!

To Tiffany Rodriguez reg her post dated 01/18/10: I do not know Tracy or her family, but what I observe on this site is not a woman who would want her friend to take responsibility for what was out of her control. Find hope, peace, forgiveness, and love in Jesus. This is to be a lesson for all you sweet, young girls to beware of men you hardly know or know not at all... not a guilt trip for the rest of your life. You can be a force for good, pray for Tracy and her family, focus on that, not on what could or should have been. Do not be the second life taken in this tragedy. With only love for you and the Ocasio family in Christ, your Friend.
Grace

02/02/2010 @ 06:54 PM

Liz, Joe & Joseph - We were thrilled about the new charges today. This is a good thing, as a conviction may lead to charges in Tracy’s disappearance. You all remain in our thoughts, hearts and prayers every day!
Claire & Becca

02/02/2010 @ 03:41 PM

To the Ocasio’s-I pray for your family all of the time. I seen on wftv today about Hataway. I hope the truth comes out. I hate to make assumptions, but he surely seems like a very evil person. Besides, I have watched Mrs. Ocasio talk about him and she is passionate in what she feels. A mother’s instinct is ALWAYS right. God bless you and your family.

Samantha

12/31/2009 @ 08:30 PM

Tracy God I miss you I can’t even put the right words together that explain how painful empty it is to see this year end without you physically with us and to be forced into a new year without you physically with us. To my cousin Tracy’s emediate family I love you and wish you peace in every sense of the word. To my cousin Joey although Tracy is your sister please know that Tracy is a sister to me as well even if we are just cousins I love her as if she is my sister as well always have always will which also makes you like a brother please remember that. I’m sure that its been much harder for you then it has been for me but you and your parents and hope for Tracy are the factors that keep me pushing on each day each night. I hope eventually you and I become close friends as our Tracy and I have become. Wish you a very peaceful hopful New Year.
Dee

12/30/2009 @ 04:54 PM

To Morgan.....Thank you for your kind words. Life is precious, hug your daughter and tell her you love her every single day! I regret not doing that with my daughter and now she’s gone....don’t make the same mistake.....God Bless!
Joe Ocasio

12/29/2009 @ 10:47 PM

To Everyone.....Thank you very much for your thoughts and prayers. To my family members I want to apologize as I’ve not been available, part due to work and the rest since It’s been very difficult to talk about Tracy especially now during the holidays. We continue to pray and hope that some day in the near future we can bring our precious daughter home and give her a place to rest in peace where we can vist her and mourn her....God knows how much we miss her!
Joe Ocasio

12/29/2009 @ 09:41 AM

Ocasio family. We do not know eachother but i google tracy every morning when i arrive at work just to see if anything new has come up. I think about your daughter all the time praying you find her alive and if not atleast a proper burial. i am 22 y/o female and have made the same mistakes Tracy made. I have learned so much from this case. I will continue to pray for your family and Daughter.. I think of you guys very very often even more so after the birth of my daughter.. I cant imagine what it has been like for your family...I am so sorry... Stay as strong as possible. Somewhere somehow this has got to surface!!!!
Morgan in Tampa

12/26/2009 @ 09:00 PM

I missed you so much yesterday. It was strange not having you with us, and as my day came to an end I spoke to God in confusion as to why it had to be you. I just don’t understand. I just pray one day we will be able to know where you are. I can only pray that your soul and your body are both at peace and that God shelter you and take care of you. I love you and you will never be forgoten
Courtney Reynolds White

12/24/2009 @ 08:42 PM

Joe, Your family is in my thoughts and prayers during this difficult Christmas Season. I pray God will give your family the strength that you need to get through each day till Tracy comes home. I check the web site every other day praying and hoping that there is some good news about Tracy. A lot of people are praying for Tracy and your family. Till Tracy comes home The prayers will continue. Don’t give up.

12/23/2009 @ 09:36 AM

We love you Tracy and miss you beyond how much words can even express. I love you I pray for you and think of you daily all throughout the day. Tio Joe titi Liz and Joey Merry Christmas and please abuela the same for me since I’m keeping myself a little distant for now to deal with this thing my own way. I love you all every much and abuela as well always and forever. I’ll never give up faith that Tracy just may still be with us. When I was missing abuela said Tracy never gave up on finding me which took 16 years to do I owe it to Tracy to never give up on her being found and God willing alive .
Dee

12/22/2009 @ 09:24 PM

When I have fears that I may cease to be Before my pen has glean’d my teeming brain, Before high piled books, in charactry, Hold like rich garners the full ripen’d grain; When I behold, upon the night’s starr’d face, Huge cloudy symbols of high romance, And I think that I may never live to trace Their shadows, with the magic hand of chance; And when I feel, fair creature of an hour, That I shall never look upon thee more, Never have relish in the fairy power Of unreflecting love;- then on shore Of the wilde world I stand alone, and think Till love and fame to nothingness sink. John Keats, 1818
Taryn Anthony

12/10/2009 @ 08:20 PM

I miss you so bad today. I see you in my dreams and feel you when I cook dinner or drive my car. I wish I could have you back just for one day. Why did you leave Tracy, we need you to come back. Your my angel.
Courtney Reynolds White

12/03/2009 @ 11:40 AM

Liz and Joe, Thank you so much for the baby gifts. It was so amazing for me to have you there Liz. I felt Tracy in the room everytime I looked at you. I talked to you on Thanksgiving I hope that gave you some comfort and believe that I will be around for you no matter what.
Courtney Reynolds White

It has been far too long since Tracy went missing. No answers have come. I’m out in CA but I continually think about your family and pray for Tracy. Hang in there and stay strong for Tracy. Xxoo

11/28/2009 @ 02:51 AM

I feel justice for someone tonight. I pray it’s Tracy. I blog at Fox Orlando now, unfortunately, it’s another politically incorrect web-site, imo. But, then again, the whole world has gone awry. Keep the Faith... Patti

Tio Joe Tia Liz and Joey I wish and pray for the best for you three this holiday season I love you all so very much. Tracy as for me my holidays will never be the same again. Not a day goes by without me thinking of you and praying for you and your brother and parents. I love you and miss you more then actions or words can express it. I can’t celebrate the holidays knowing your out there somewhere still but I will do my best to do participate in holiday activities in your honor. Happy Thanksgvg and I am thankful for the mere fact that I’m your cousin.
Dee

11/20/2009 @ 09:57 PM

To The Ocasio Family, I know neither you or Tracy and I only heard of her disappearance when my wife and I were on our honeymoon in Orlando. The night Tracy came on the news stuck with me and I haven’t thought much of it until tonight. I can only wish the best for your family and ask that you stay strong as we keep Tracy in our hearts and in our prayers. Wherever she is know and trust that the Lord is watching over her.
Trent

11/20/2009 @ 07:31 PM

Joe and Liz, Just wanted you to know not a day goes by that I don’t think about the two of you and pray for you and your family. I miss Tracy so much and I want you to know I love you guys.

Auf dem 26. ist es sechs Monate seit Ihnen nach links gewesen. Ich versuche noch, zu denken, wenn es irgendein Beweisstück vermißt gibt, oder wie hataway mit diesem weg, zu erhalten gerade halten könnte. Ich liebe dich und vermissen Sie.
Taryn Anthony

11/19/2009 @ 11:01 PM

TO: MJH..........mjh, nothing new with Hataway, it’s very frustrating. Thank you for the information, I will check it out and pass it along to the detectives....God Bless
Joe Ocasio

11/19/2009 @ 04:32 PM

Joe, I am so very sorry to bother you. I know I have given you information before, and I assume it did not lead anywhere. I want so badly to find Tracy. I check back here often to see if there have been any updates. For some reason, today, I decided to search James Hattaway, to see if there was any new information on him anywhere. The strangest thing happened -- for some reason, searching his name, I was led to the following: Map of Noland Company and neighboring listings Noland Company in Longwood, Florida (FL) Name: Noland Company Street: 1175 Florida Central Pky Postal address: Longwood, FL Phone: 407- 332-6170 I was unfortunately unable to copy the map. This company is toward the end of the road, which ends. Almost directly to the right of it is "Dogtrack Rd". As you may remember, Nolan and Dogtrack were the first two things that firefly came up with. I don’t know if this means anything or is significant in any way. But, I wanted to let you know. My prayers are with you always. mjh

Don’t you find it odd that as soon as I contact the authorities, the picture is removed. I continue to question the intentions of Scared Monkeys and Texas Equusearch. Since when are they in the public opinion business for a woman who has failed EVERY single lie detection test she has taken... even theirs? The story of Misty Cummings and the results of the search in Aruba under the name of ’Persistence’ says it all. Does it always have to be about money? What about ’TRUTH’? My advise to you: Beware.
HOPE

11/08/2009 @ 02:25 AM

My heart goes out to the family.I will post this website to people i know to help your search.

tiffany rodriguez

11/06/2009 @ 09:22 PM

Joe, I don’t have a social network. I post to various blogs but was with Scared Monkeys for years... the secrets I revealed to them are just now coming to their knowledge. But, I don’t post there as they are politically incorrect and tolerate racial hatred. You have my e-mail address; but, honestly, justice will be done with or without the picture. Don’t put your faith in men, not even me, but in Him. Jehovah, of Armies, please shine your loving light on the truth about Tracy Ocasio and return her to her loving family that all shall know that You, above all, are the Most High over all the universe and nothing, nothing, goes unnoticed by you. Let all men know that it is only through You and Your Loving Son that all things come about and help us in our fight as the world is full of those that would leave us to live in darkness, if only they could. Through Christ we pray... Amen.
HOPE/Patti

11/05/2009 @ 07:44 PM

Tracy you are still in my heart and I have not forgotten about you. You were always there for me when I needed a friend and I miss you more than ever. Please if you get this come home!

11/05/2009 @ 09:10 AM

With the second slip up in Seminole, I believe it is time to start questioning the actions of the Seminole County LEO and State Prosecutor. Liz & Joe, our prayers are with you every single day. We will be in NY over the next few weeks...let us know if there is anything we can do for you there.
Claire & Becca

11/05/2009 @ 12:51 AM

TO: Patti.....I can not publish my email here for obvious reasons. If have a social network where you can post the picture let me know and I’ll look it up....thanks, Joe.
Joe Ocasio

11/04/2009 @ 11:39 AM

Justice for Ocasio. She is alive. I continue to pray for her, everyday. I told Red at Scared Monkeys to tell you she was in either California, Oregon or Washington. When women and children started being found alive in California, I thought Tracy was next. I was wrong. The three women found in California ended with Jaycee in Antioch, not Tracy. Justice for Jaycee comes. I’m sorry, but, please, keep your love for your daughter strong in your heart and she will return. Don’t misinterpret my last post, Tracy is not in water. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6rAkn9OZT0k&feature=related God Bless You... Bye.

Mike and Tori: Thanks for the information. I have the picture that Blink had posted to their site and said that it was Christian. Since last week, the picture has been removed. So who is the guy that was in the middle. The tall one. I was led to believe it was Christian. I’m so sorry. I wish I could send the picture to you because this man in New York looks exactly like the guy who was standing next to Hataway. Mr. Ocasio: Thank you so much for removing my personal information from the site. I think Tracy is alive and we’ll find her. I’m going to keep praying for her safe return... There’s tremendous power in prayer, way beyond what we can imagine. I kept a copy of the picture that was posted to Blink’s website of Hataway with two men.If you have an e-mail address for me to e-mail mail my copy of the picture I was referring to, I’d be happy to.
Patti

11/01/2009 @ 11:55 AM

Tracy, I miss you so much everyday. I remember last year at this time we were just waking up from a way to fun nite you had spent the night at my house and we were making wedding plans. No worries that I would wake up one day and you would be gone. I just want to know where you are and hold you again. XOXOXOXO

TO: Patti/HOPE Onda Christian George is NOT THE SAME PERSON as Onda Christopher George who went missing in mid February and is connected to Tracy’s case through James Hataway. His picture can be found at https://www.findthemissing.org/cases/2789 His picture is not on the BlinkOnCrime website. If you’d like to confirm that, email Blink and ask about the person you are referring to.
Mike & Tori

10/30/2009 @ 01:55 PM

You’re welcome. I hope this is the lead that you needed to bring Tracy home. In the meantime, lean on God for your strength and He will be there for you. I hope you both are doing okay and my thoughts and prayers are with you. Your Friend, Patti/HOPE

Hey Joe, I miss and love Tracy and you guys soo much. It hurts bad that there’s nothing I can do. My family and I still pray every day for her & you, Liz, Joey and the rest of your family. I am so sorry Joe.

Hello Liz and Joe. This is Marie, Aaron Bennetts ex-wife. Just wanted to let you know that everyone up here is Va is still praying for Tracy to be found. She is in my thoughts everyday. I recently found 2 pictures of Tracy and Aaron together when they were about 16 and I sent them to Aaron. Tracy had actually written on the back of one :) My heart goes out to your family and God Bless!

To: Cindy......In regards to the people and house you made reference to, it has been now two years since they’ve been out of there and someone else owns it. The 911 call was from that same street but related to a theft and shooting at another house nearby. The news media checked that out when the rumor came out. However I thank you very much for not taking that for granted and reporting it! That is exactly how one of these days someone will come forward with a tip that will help us break the case. I just wish more people would come forward as you did....God bless you!
Joe Ocasio

10/14/2009 @ 09:26 PM

Joe, Liz I saw your interview on tv our prayers go out to your family. I check this site every other day and the news every day in hopes that someone comes forward so you can have peace. Knowing how nice your family is from LL and going on the search makes it even harder knowing their hasn’t been a break in the case. We hope that you will bring her home soon. God Bless!

Missing you and knowing where or how your doing hurts beyond expression. Its a pain thats there while doing life’s simplest routines. There’s no form of outlet like an extra curricular activy that for minute easies the soul from an irrepairable hole. "You are everywhere to me when I close my eye’s its you I see." Tracy wrather you are with us still or not you will never be forgotten you asked me to never forget you and I will do more then keep my word. Never in my life did I expect to feel so close to what blood is never I expect to feel so far at the same time. Your so close yet your once again so far in life and in spirit you will always be our irish angel and my north star. I freakin miss you more then I’ll ever be able to express. I love you and I always have sorry I never got the chance to tell you.

To: All.................I thank you all for your kind words, prayers and suggestions. It is such an over whelming task to search the "many areas of interest" that we have been targeting those where we have either facts or tips to give us a reason. I wish I had unlimited resources as I would check everywhere! However unfortunally the reality of our situation prevents that. We just continue to hope and pray for the one person that comes forward with real information to help lead us to her and the circumstances of her dissapearance. God Bless you all!
Joe Ocasio

09/15/2009 @ 06:12 AM

I used to work with Tracy at Gators dockside sometime ago. I had a dream of her the other night. I think she knows that the cops are getting closer to finding out the truth. I had to write this because i felt like I was feeling what she felt. To the parents of Tracy, this will be coming to an end soon.

This has been on my mind and want to send the thought your way. Considering one of his friends lives off hwy 50 has there been any thought to check the woods on Daniels Road in Winter Garden it is very easy access in there and close to his house. God Bless and stay strong.

To the Ocasio Family-I have one son who is my everything. He is the air I breath, my reason for living! I can’t imagine what you are going through. I have been following this story since it began. And although it is a story for me, it is reality for you and Im so very sorry that your family has to endure such pain! Keep faith as hard as it may be and always look to the Lord for guidance and support. Justice will be served, even if its not here on Earth. Know that you have love and support from those around you and NEVER give up! Your family is admired for the strength and determination that you all have. I live in the area and if I can help in ANY way, please let me know. God bless you and your family, my prayers are with you and your family. May God bring you peace!

I just read about the boot that was found near Bluford ave and Rt 50! I pray there is a new search. The location coincides with the information that Tracy’s phone was pinging 0.2 miles from a cell tower only 0.5 miles from the intersection of Bluford and Rt 50!. She will continue to be in my thoughts. Jon

I do not know Tracy personally but I have heard about her from Derrick. He has told me everything about what has been going on and how great a person she was.I have been on the internet for the last like hour watching the news videos regarding Tracy and getting a little choked up. I hope they find her soon. She sounds like a really great girl. Wish I could have met and gotten to know her. I hope and pray for that day to come soon for your family that she is found. You and your family are in my prayers!

08/27/2009 @ 02:43 PM

I’ve been following this story on Nancy Grace and she had mentioned something about the suspect James Hattaway’s dad picking him up at the bar the night Tracy went missing. Have the cops checked out his dad, to see if he also has a criminal record? He could be covering up for his son. According to the cops the suspect has an interest in the "dark arts." There have been cases in the past were women have been kidnapped and kept in dungeons that are built in the basement of the house and are sound proof. It happened in Upstate NY and in Florida. Was there a pay phone in the bar that he could have used to call someone. Did they check his cell phone records that night? I think that the cops should check into this theory because there are alot of crazy people out there. She could still be alive and being kept somewhere against her will. Never lose hope that she will come home. I will keep Tracy in my prayers every day, every night. God Bless.

tracy all the things that have come into light are pointing in a direction many of us dont want to face. if by chance it does show that you were viciously and callously taken away from your friends and family i swear to you my dear i wont rest until that sob pays. u are beautiful strong and if anyone could survive out there this long baby girl its you. my hope shall not fade. you are so very loved and we will all bring you home.
tiffany

08/27/2009 @ 11:09 AM

How much time was there between when her car was found on Franklin Street and when the police came into contact with Mr. Hataway? Just curious. I definitely think he was involved. But was it hours, days, weeks? Praying for your family and daughter.

The trail leading to Tracy’s car beng left without the keys, her phone, ad purse seems all staged. No signs of a struggle. everything pointing at the person of interest in custody who last saw Tracy. I think he lured her back to his neighborhood, and knows more. I think Tracy is alive ad kidknapped. Nothig I’ve read indicates homocide.
Jon

08/19/2009 @ 03:56 PM

You don’t know me, I am just a working mom and wife from Richmond, VA but was drawn to the site from seeing the link on CNN. I hope and pray that answers come soon for you and your family. I understand somewhat of what you are going through. Although, I have never lost a child; I have one daughter and can’t imagine how hard it would be to go through that, still, my brother in law was shot and killed in a robbery on 06/09/09; earlier this year and to this date the police do not have a definite person i custody. They do have a suspect who was shot and killed, trying to rob another store in Richmond on 07/11/09, but "evidence" or "forensics" have taken over a month and nothing has been determined or proven as of yet. Now, this is not to say that I think your daughter is no longer alive. I hope and pray personally that she is still alive and is returned safely to your family..I just wanted to express my thoughts and feelings of going through a similiar situation of waiting and waiting and waiting and not knowing why or who or what. I sympathize with your family and God bless you all and Tracy as well. She is a beautiful young woman. I have an older sister that lives in Orlando, FL and if I was closer to the area, then I would volunteer myself to help as much as I could. Again, God bless you all and your family will be in my thoughts and prayers. We have to make this world a better place. No one has the right to take someone else’s life, no matter what happens. Another reason I am against guns as well. I am sorry, I don’t mean to be so personal on the site, but I just wanted to express my thoughts and feelings and let you and your family know that others do care and hope for the best and there are good people out there in the world, despite what others do. Have faith and hope and I wish you all the best. I agree Dollar Tree is wonderful as well. Take care and I can’t say God bless enough. Whether or not, Tracy was kidnapped, injured or even thew worst, the person that did this to her...even if they think they will get away with it..they will never. God will severly punish him/her and that is the worst punishment of all! Keep the faith and never give up. :)
CRYSTAL

08/19/2009 @ 02:20 PM

Hi Joe, My heart goes out to Tracy and your family. Don’t give up hope. If investigator’s haven’t pulled surveillance from banks and stores along routes between the tap room, Franklin Street, and your home, that is a good idea. I also hope they checked phone records to see what towers the phone connected too that night, and whether the GPS locator in the phone what on at any time. One helpful peace of information might be, Tracy’s mother made several calls that night, and some rang, while others went straight to voicemail at the time the phone was turned off, the battery died, or was outside of the service area. Good luck to you. Jon from NH
Jon

08/19/2009 @ 01:13 PM

I do not know you or your family, but you are in my thoughts and prayers! I read about this on cnn.com and hope that your daughter and answers will return to you soon! To Tracy’s family, friends, and all who are affected, I hope that you are able to find peace soon!! Continue to keep faith, and I will continue sending my prayers your way.
Jen from Ohio

Ocasio Family, Today is the first I have heard of your daughter Tracy. I’ve never met you or your family but I feel a strange urge of compassion and sympathy. I am not all to religious, but I have Tracy in my heart and have hopes of closure for Tracy and your family. She feels your love, wherever she may be, and I’m sure you feel hers too. - Bree

Dear Ocasio Family, I was on CNN.com this morning and saw the story of how the reward was increased. That is such an awesome thing!! My thoughts and prayers are with you. I cannot imagine the roller coaster of emotions that your family is going through. Know though, that people across this nation are keeping Tracy and your family in our thoughts and prayers.

08/19/2009 @ 10:29 AM

I am very saddened by this story, I am a big news buff and this is the first I have heard of Tracy missing. I am in Michigan but do read Fox News and CNN daily. I am so so so sorry for what the family, friends and community are going through. I will keep all of you including tracy in my thoguhts and prayers. This is a great website and Joe you are one strong man. And I can see by this site that you haev alot of people on your side. I wish I was closer to be able to help in the search. God Bless tracy adn the Ocasio family..

My thoughts are with you and I am sorry for all of the pain that your family is dealing with. I truly hope there is a happy ending.

TO: Firefly......thanks for the tip. Right now we have not finished searching the area where her car was spotted and we are planning a search as we speak and hope something comes out of it. Otherwise we’ll re-visit our options at that point....I will keep your notes just in case....thank you.
Joe Ocasio

08/18/2009 @ 09:34 PM

TO: Rick......Rick thanks for the advise however at this point my drive is to find out what happened and bringing her home, good or bad. I might not accomplish this but I do not want to ever look back and regret not trying my best. However there is truth to what you say and I have to learn to balance the highs and lows....thank you again.
Joe Ocasio

08/18/2009 @ 12:19 PM

Joe, keep your chin up. i check in on this site from time to time and saw your latest family update... you cant live your life like that. i cant begin to imagine the anguish you must be feeling but i have to remind you that this is your life, good to the last drop. i am a firm believer in the idea that we are not put on this planet to learn, we have no set path and all we have during our brief stay is our experiences. take your time with the grief and never let Tracy leave your heart but remember... you HAVE to keep your eyes on the end of the tunnel and push through this. for your sake, for the rest of your family and for Tracy.
rick

08/17/2009 @ 09:28 PM

Sir, I don’t know if there is another forum to post this on. I posted it on my blog but felt I should send it to you also. The name "Sycamore" came thru when I did a psychic reading on this case. I looked on mapquest and Apopka has a street with that name, next to Wekiwa state park. Very isolated seemingly. When I did a search of missing persons for the area, I found that a young lady was found in July in Apopka not too far away. If no one has a better search location, I’d suggest this one.
Firefly

08/16/2009 @ 04:12 PM

TO: K....The police is looking at all cases that show similarities or might have a conection. You’ll be surprised how many cases they’ve looked at or are still working on. However I personally do not think this one is related due to the circumstances and evidence we have....thank you for your thoughts.

I can understand how you were overcome with despair after the last search, especially with Tracy’s birthday right at the same time. Please know that I too can feel your pain, and I am so, so sorry. I was so glad to hear that the search and rescue have volunteered to help. That was such good news. It also seems that Dr. Sevor has been sent by God. What an amazing man. I think about you all every day. Still sending prayers your way.

This is just another thought after readying the article forensicastrology.blogspot.com from mjh do you think the people that were just arrested for kidnapping the 15 year girl and had her as a sex slave should be interviewed.

I have found the following site very interesting...forensicastrology.blogspot.com. I don’t really know how it’s supposed to work, but she has done an interesting reading on Tracy. She has also done one on Caylee Anthony, which seems pretty accurate, and one on Jennifer Kesse, which I also found very interesting. Just thought I would mention it.

Joe, Liz & Joey, I was so happy to see the news today regarding the new lead. I knew it was a matter of time and consciense. I’m so glad that whomever it was finally found the strength to do the right thing. I hope this brings you all the much needed closure you seek. May you all now find strength and peace in one another and in your faith.
Claire & Becca

07/30/2009 @ 05:43 PM

Joe, my heart breaks for you and your family. Contacting police about even what may seem trivial was the least I could do to try to help. I was VERY honest with Ocoee police and was told they would follow up with me. They have not so far, but if I can offer any assistance, I will do so. They have my contact information. I no longer live in FL so, sadly, I cannot help with these important searches. I continue to follow news and Blinkoncrime for updates. Your dedication to your daughter will surely yeild results.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you everyday, but more so as this weekend draws closer.

TO: HOPE....Thank you for your message and personal interest with Tracy’s story. I continue to hope sometime, someday someone comes forward and we get closure as to her where abouts. In your message you state you have great parents, if I may....never take for granted your love for them and whenever you have a chance tell them you love them! I always told her I loved her but that last day I went out of town and never had a chance to tell my baby I loved her one last time before she was taken from us....I alwasy thought there would a "tomorrow" but "tomorrow" never came. God Bless you!
Joe Ocasio

07/27/2009 @ 11:19 PM

TO: CHICOGIRL36..... First I thank you for your kind words. You are correct, Tracy had a "fighter’s" mentality from the standpoint of never wanting to give up whenever she had a goal in mind. Even though I know time has been our worst enemy and most likely she’s no longer with us that is the one trait that gives me hope for a miracle! She was our first born and we miss her terribly! Last, give your 11 year old a big hug for me and I’m very thankful for the wonderful prayers at "big church". God Bless you and thank you again!

I live in Canada, and first saw Tracy’s story on CNN. I check daily for updates on the case. I’m too far away to help but this story touched me deeply. I’m 28 years old with great parents and reading Mr. Ocasio’s posts really hits home. To Tracy’s family friends and all who suffer, Please know there are people all over the world hoping you find peace soon. Noone deserves to go through this. Stay strong.

07/27/2009 @ 04:46 AM

Mr and Mrs Ocasio, I have been hooked on Tracey’s story since the day I heard it. She is the spitting image of my daughter, and I would want anyone to do all they could for me if God forbid, I was in your shoes. I apologize that I can’t help look, as I live in Ca, but between Blinky’s site and WS, they told us to donate to TES, so I did in her honor. I pray that Tracey will be found alive. I know the longer these things go, the worse it sounds, but Tracey sounds like such a fighter, and she will at least leave LOTS of clues to find her killer if she cant physically tell us. God Bless your family and I cant imagine the pain you must be in. Just know, you have a family in CA that loves Tracey and your family very much. In fact,my 11 year old prayed at "big church" for her, and I could not get the details out with out crying!! Keep up your have work M/M O. You have a lot of support.

We met a few years ago in one of our Durham, NC stores.

TO: CONCERNED POST 7/16/2009 @ 11:55 PM Concerned, What we know about Hataway is that he has given police conflicting statements and as everyone knows was the last one seen with her. Once he was questioned on the discrepancies he stopped talking. This is telling us one of four things: 1) He’s personally involved on her dissapearance or 2) He’s involved along with someone else on he dissapearance or 3) He’s not involved but he knows about her dissapearance and he’s not cooperating or 4) His conflicting statements are garbage and he’s not involved at all. Regardless of Hataway the Detectives are looking at all avenues including other people as well which is smart. Especially if Hataway turns out not to be involved. Of course he has been the focus for obvious reasons but not the only one. In regards to Blink on Crime I have no issues with them. There are many other media outlets out there whether radio, print or media putting out comments or assumptions based on local information that comes up, true or not. Even if not true at least all of the media/radio/internet attention is keeping Tracy’s name and face out there which helps awareness on her case. We hope and pray these help get leads to her finding sometime in the near future. Thank you for your prayers!!

07/17/2009 @ 06:35 PM

Mr. and Mrs. Ocasio, First I must tell you how sorry I am for what you are going through. I think about you and Tracy every day, and my thoughts and prayers are with you all. I had sent a "tip" earlier to Blink, which I know was forwarded to you. Nolan Rd had been mentioned in my message, and I had found Nola Drive. But, since then, I have gotten other clues -- one from a strange comment posted on Blink, with a coded message leading me to Big Tree Park (The Tallest Tree) and Lake Jesup. When I looked at both of these on a map at the same time, I found NOLAN Rd. right above the far left corner of lake Jesup. I sent this message on to Blink also, but am not sure if she forwarded it to you. I know you are probably being hounded by all kinds of people who claim to be "psychic", etc. So, I do apologize. But, a few more clues have arisen. One from the original girl I got the first tip from. She is actually "right on" a lot of the time, although she is sometimes wrong. But, she apparently tried again, and was given "Dog Track". There is a Dog Track Rd. over near that area too. Both of us came to the same exact place by different means, without even realizing it. I have also been following another woman who came up with "North" and "Winter". Winter Springs is directly below this same area (Lake Jesup). I had heard that Equusearch may come back to search again. I’m not sure if this is true or not, but I hope so. I really have such a strong feeling that the area between Nolan Rd and Lake Jesup should be searched. I wish I could come down there and help, but unfortunately, that is not possible. I will continue praying for you and your family.
mjh

07/16/2009 @ 11:55 PM

Mr. Joe, I am very concerned about this Blink on Crime web site. This woman is doing everything she can to point away from Mr. Hattaway and claims she is interviewing his friends. I don’t know how she can do this on the net, she is not a police officer, and I feel like she is interfering with a police investigation. Those are my thoughts..perhaps you have read her site. As a parent, I would have LE intervene in her blogging. She is not helping matter. Prayers for you and your wife. Praying for Tracy to be found soon.

I was a friend of Traceys> we only met about 6 monhs before she disappeared but we hung ou frequently. I talked to her the day she disappeared but it was nothing unusual. I recieved a text message on my phonin the beginning of june coming from her phone. It was a forwarded text message. I called and told the police about it and they said they would look into it. I dont know if that helps with anything but i thought you should know. My thoughts and prayers go out to you and your family. I loved her very much and i miss her and think about her everyday.

From there we have a couple of others we need to search for which we are waiting to get dogs for. EquuSearch is also coming back to help with some of these and I’ll make sure to share the one you sent as well.

Hi Joe, I took a drive through Sunland today. There is one area of interest. Back behind where the Hospital used to be, if you follow All Children’s Way down towards the pond. There are several buildings back there that are obviously being used by someone. I didn’t go in but I took a few photos of the area for you. Do think we can we get a handful of folks together this week to run through it?

Hi Joe, We met briefly at the park where so many gathered to search for Tracy. I helped with the TES search and have followed the case ever since... i was wondering if anyone has searched the area off Hiawassi and Laurel Hill Rd. There are local urban legends of the area as having supernatural events. Perhaps Hataway would have frequented these abandoned buildings. After locating the property on an old map i took a drive by the area and the potential for going unnoticed is high... just an idea.

Greetings.. I was wondering if her myspace has been checked out. Today it finally hit me that I have met and hung out with tracy personally. I feel if her myspace hasnt been checked out, then it really should be. Sometime in october i got a random mail from tracy on myspace asking me if i would like to hang out with her sometime because we had common interest. I agreed and added her to myspace and within a couple days of that we exchanged numbers over myspace and on October 13th, she drove to my house and met me in person. We went to a bar, she got her tounge repierced, and we made it back to my house where we hung out for a couple hours. I strongly feel that maybe she could of just met the wrong person on myspace or something. I have already contacted the tipline telling them about this encounter i had with tracy. just from hanging out with her for less than ten hours, you could tell tracy was the type of girl who was full of life, and loved to have fun. we talked about everything under the sun that night and i felt very comfortable around her. I really do hope that she is found soon, and that she is safe. My prayers go out to her friends and family.

Knowing the type of work that Hattaway does why hasn’t there been any divers to search the bottom of starke lake? this is the closest large body of water to both his residence and the location where Tracy’s car was found.

I wish I knew more than I do.. I am baffeled by all of this. I do know that his family and friends have exausted every avenue that we can come up with.. I actually placed all of the missing posters when he 1st came missing.. I will definitely be keeping my ears open for both Chris and Tracy and my heart goes out to you and your family.

To: Justice Post on 7/06/2009 @ 12:04 AM Thank you for your kind words and prayers. If you know of any information about Chris that Detectives should know regardless of how small please let us know. As you know these two cases might be related and I hope one can help the other and vice versa.

Claire & Rebecca, they’ve checked many empty buildings/houses between the taproom and where the car was found but I will ask about the areas behind Metro west you mentioned. In regards to the woods leading into the Ocoee high school ironically they are searching that area with dogs this week. Thank you for your thoughts and prayers.
Joe Ocasio

07/06/2009 @ 06:18 PM

Joe - I know this may sound a little strange...but did anyone look through the abandoned buildings and behind them in the Metro West area off Hiawasee? Also - the dead end at Silver Star near the post office that extends into woods leading to Ocoee High...just a thought. Thinking of you all every day and praying that you find peace.

I have been praying for Tracy and her loved ones. Please find comfort in the support & caring of total strangers who wish you well. I have never been in your shoes, although I have lost loved ones to illness. I can only imagine how painful this ordeal is for you all. I am so very sorry that you are enduring this nightmare. Let us pray you’ll soon be relieved of this suffering and Tracy returned to you.

Mr. O’Casio, The few things that I have to offer you are prayer, words of encouragement and words comfort. So then, it is a good feeling for me to know that my words and description of your daughter touched your heart. Not one single day goes by that I don’t think about Tracy. This is nothing new because I was doing that, before she vanished. I am the father of five girls with four remaining. The single most heartbreaking thing I have ever done in my life was bury my oldest daughter in October 2006 after a tragic event in Virginia. Although I don’t know the feeling of not knowing, I do know the feelings attached to a parent losing their child. Only those who have experieced this can sympathize and honestly relate. You will never get over it but you will learn to cope with the pain as time goes by. The proverbial words; "time heals all wounds", is a powerful truth. I refuse to give up the glimmer of hope that Tracy could possibly return in perfect health. And until the day comes, wherein the truth is revealed which proves otherwise, I will remain hopeful. And if that day should ever come and we learn she is gone forever, Tracy would still remain alive in our hearts and minds never to be forgotten. Our daughters are still alive in our hearts and minds where they will remain forever. May God Bless you and empower you with His Spirit. If you would like to contact me Courtney should have my number.

Hi Mr and Mrs Ocasio, my heart breaks for your family. I’ve been on the searches and have met you both. I want to help in anyway that I can. I was thinking that we can go and plaster flyers by hand to the metrowest, ocoee and winter garden area. There are people who have not heard of Tracy’s story and it is hard to believe that they live right here in Orlando. But, I’ve spoken to friends and co-workers of mine telling them that I’ve been on the search for Tracy and try to get them to come out and help and they have no idea what I am talking about. I then have to tell them about her and what happened.They say they watch that much tv anymore or have the time to watch tv. In any case, I think that it would be a great idea to get an army of people together and go door to door and hand pictures of Tracy’s car and her out and maybe the person of interest both in spanish and english. I’ve volunteered for Food for Families delivering food and people would be surprised that there are many people in Ocoee/Winter Garden who don’t have running water or lights much less tvs. So, going door by door and getting the word out about her could be effective and might bring the break in the case we need. I’m willing to help in any way. People are more willing to look at something that is handed to them than something that is huny up somewhere. How many of us really look at the missing posters hung up in Walmart, Kmart or the local gas stations? We really don’t pay attention because it is not important to us and it is not our loved ones. But, if we go out and personally hand flyers out then we might get more responses. favoreddl@yahoo.com

Mr and Mrs Ocasio and Family- I would have preferred to have met you under dramatically different circumstances. However, you took the time to visit me and offer thanks and support, I wish to do the same. Please keep the faith as best you can, and in God’s time, we will bring her home. God Bless Blink

While we have never met, and may never meet in the future; I wanted to convey how truly humbled I am by the grace your family has shown while enduring these tragic circumstances. And I just wanted you to know there are people across this country you’ve never met who are vigilantly watching, praying and hoping for Tracy. It is Unacceptable for people to go missing without answer, and it must stop. I hope with all my heart Tracy Ocasio comes home to you. And I pray we collectively find ways to put an end to this kind of pain. Praying for your continued strength, you are not alone.

I am thankful for the time that I have spent with Tracy. And for the opportunity to have met her and to Know what a caring, gentle, joyful and kindred spirit she is. A woman Full of energy, dangerously funny and care-free. My biggest close-up magic fan and pink sprinkles. When I think of Tracy I smile because she always makes me laugh. I realize now, just how important she is, to everyone that knows her. My prayer is that she returns hastily. She has left an indelible impression upon my life and I hope to see her again. May God Bless her family during these trying times.

Joe, Liz and Joey, There is nothing that I can say that hasn’t already been said over and over and over again. Nothing that any of us can say to you that will change anything. We can only send our prayers out to the Lord for help. Help to find her, help to find her safe and well, help to find closure for you, help to get thru the trials ahead of you, help in healing. If we could all send you a little flash each time you cross our minds, you would be ablaze in light. This will never leave you nor will it leave any of us. You are family and we are feeling your pain. Love and Prayers to you.

Courtney, I do not want Tracy’s friends or relatives looking for her body, instead I want her remembered how we saw her the last time we did. Do not feel guilty, instead let’s pray for a miracle. However whatever the outcome let’s celebrate the time we had with her! Call me when you get a chance. I think later it would be nice to get you and Tracy’s other friends together at our house to remember her. Last, I thank you for your kind words and music post, I just listened to it and could not help breakdown in tears.

’The very trials that task our faith most severely and make it seem that God has forsaken us, are to lead us closer to Christ, that we may lay all our burdens at His feet and experience the peace which He will give us in exchange." From the book Conflict & Courage. The Lord knows all things, and they will all work together for good to those who love God. Let us all keep humble and pray daily for Tracy and her family. The Lord is good and just, let’s praise His name as He already has a resolution for this crisis!
Yours in Christ

I wanted to go search for tracy,but I have lupus and can’t go in the sun. My grandson Justin McWilliams, died in 2002, he would have been 27 yrs. also.He lived in Ocoee and went to W.O. H.S...I’ve often wondered if he knew her. I can feel your heartbreak,I know where my grandson is, but not knowing ,I don’t know how I’d have ever gotten over that.There is never,ever closure to the death of a young person or not knowing where they are,all you have is exceptance. Your family are in my prayers and thoughts everyday. What breaks my heart is the same thing about the other young man and Jennifer Kesse, only the person that hurt them knows where they are and to me that is horrific, that one person knows and won’t speak. God Bless your family and know others truly care and keep hoping. Even if she is gone, she deserves to come home to her family. my love & prayers to you-Gail Mitchell
