On October 30, 2016, Tracy Latty Algar was killed at work. Michael Powell came to rob the gas station where Tracy was a clerk. He pulled the 54-year-old into the station's restroom and shot her in the head, then left with a few hundred dollars. A customer found Tracy's body shortly afterwards. Years earlier, Tracy had suffered a stroke which affected her speech and made her self-conscious, but she found her occasional shifts at work helpful. According to her family, "She loved her job. She was a very positive influence. She always tried to keep a smile on her face, especially with her customers. You could see a light shining through Tracy."
