Aaron Macias Esparza, Tracy D. Boyles, Paul Edward Reynolds
Aaron Macias Esparza
Aaron Macias Esparza, 31, of Logansport, passed away unexpectedly on Monday, October 6, 2025, in Kokomo.
He was born on October 28, 1993, in Numarán, Michoacán, Mexico, and was the son of José Antonio Macías and Silvia Esparza. He was a 2012 Logansport High School graduate.
Today, we remember him with sorrow, and with the deep honor of having known him because not everyone gets the blessing of having a dad like him. A man who didn’t need to boast for everyone to know he was that dad. The one who showed up. The one who loved. The one who left a mark. He enjoyed the simple joys of life: fishing, ATV riding, music, and carnitas asada, his favorite. But what he enjoyed most of all was being a father and a husband. That was his greatest pride, his truest joy. And for him, nothing was impossible.
Survivors include his wife Gabriela Franco, his children Adrián, Gabriela, and Arely Macías, his mother Silvia Esparza, and his siblings Mariana Macías (Gustavo López), Wendy Macías (Mario García), Miriam Macías (Thomas Quintero), and Marilyn Macías.
He was preceded in death by his father José Macías.
A Mass of Christian Burial will be at 10:00 a.m., Saturday, October 11, 2025, at All Saints Catholic Church. Burial will be at Mt. Hope Cemetery in Logansport.
Aaron’s online guestbook is available and condolences can be shared with the family at www.ransfuneralhomes.com.
Tracy D. Boyles
Tracy D. Boyles, 75, of Kirklin, departed this world peacefully on October 8, 2025, at her home, surrounded by her beloved family. Born in Elwood on June 12, 1950, to the late Cecil Boes and Becky (Evans) Boes Albright, Tracy radiated warmth and love throughout her life. She married Jerry K. Boyles on September 30, 1996, and he survives.
Tracy was a devoted member of Arcadia Christian Church, where her faith and kindness enriched the lives of many. Her professional journey took her to PL Porter in Westfield, where she not only built a distinguished career but also met the love of her life. Tracy proudly wore the title of “stay-at-home grandma,” a role she embraced with open arms and one that brought her boundless joy. Her grandchildren were the light of her life, and she particularly treasured their annual trip to the Indiana State Fair, a cherished tradition that bound their hearts together.
She leaves behind her loving husband Jerry; children Lori Zook and husband Joe of Cicero, and Nicole Letsinger and husband Bob, also of Cicero. Tracy’s legacy continues through her grandchildren Lucas and Ashlee Letsinger, Libby, William, Jacob, and Zoe Kramer, and Brandon Howard, who will carry her spirit with them always. She is also survived by her siblings Debbie Harrison and husband Kink, Robin Boes and wife Pam, Delora Rich, and her sister-in-law Paula Boes Adair. Tracy was preceded in death by her siblings Terry Boes and Randy Boes.
Funeral services will be at 6:00 p.m. on Monday, October 13, at Arcadia Christian Church, 26901 State Road 19, Arcadia, Indiana 46030 with Pastor JR Moffatt presiding. Visitation will also be on Monday from 4:00 p.m. until service time at the church.
