Obituary for Traci A. Fargo
Norwich - Traci Beauregard Fargo - devoted mother, beloved daughter and dedicated teacher passed away Thursday afternoon at Backus Hospital after a valiant battle with cancer. She was born in Norwich January 24, 1977 the daughter of Thomas Beauregard of Norwich and Theresa (Terri) Beauregard of Taftville. Traci attended Norwich Public Schools and graduated from Norwich Free Academy in 1995. Since being in the 2nd grade, she knew she wanted to be a teacher, a career path she ardently pursued at Endicott College in Beverly, MA. After graduating Endicott with a Degree in Education in 1999, Traci returned to Norwich Public Schools, teaching 3rd grade at Mahan, Uncas and Huntington Schools. Her passion for working with young students, enthusiasm for her profession and delight in sharing knowledge were apparant in all she did. After being diagnosed with cancer, and when she became too ill to continue as a classroom educator, Traci continued to work with developmentally disabled and special needs students as long as she was able. Outside the classroom, Traci devoted her time and loving energy to the light of her life: her son, Maxwell. Her smile and joy of life live on in Max. Traci is survived by her dad Tom and his wife Cindy Beauregard, her mom Terri and her friend Steve Koziol, her older brother Timothy of Ft. Worth, TX, her grandmother Theresa (Terry) of Taftville, her boyfriend Mark Araujo, who stood by her side throughout her illness and was an immense support and loving presence, and many cousins, aunts and uncles.
