It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Brenda Helen Tracey. After a very long, courageous fight, she succumbed to her lengthy illness on January 9, 2017 surrounded by her husband and two of her children.
Brenda was born in Kamloops, BC on November 4, 1961 and throughout her life she lived in many places in BC, as well as in Thunder Bay, ON, Fort McMurray and Coleman, AB. She had countless friends from everywhere she lived and she will be missed by them all.
Brenda’s life was her family. She was devoted to her husband, children and grandchildren, and loved them unconditionally. Brenda loved to laugh and her smile lit up any room she entered. She also possessed insurmountable courage, strength and determination. There has never been a fighter like Brenda; she shocked even her medical teams with her resolve to live. She was a vibrant, caring, loving woman who will remain in our hearts forever.
Brenda is survived by her loving husband of 26 years, Jim Tracey of Coleman, AB; four children, Jesse Lendrum of Thunder Bay, ON, Jonah Lendrum of Fairview, AB, Kylie Lendrum of Coleman, AB and Tyler Tracey of Coleman, AB; two beloved grandchildren, Jaidyn and Elyza Lendrum; her sister, Elaine Macdonald; as well as several nieces and nephews whom she loved dearly.
She was predeceased by her parents, Doug and Bonnie Macdonald, her sisters, Cheryl Macdonald and Barbara Tessman, along with grandparents, aunts and uncles.
The Memorial Service will be held at Fantin’s Funeral Chapel (13461, 20 Ave., Blairmore, AB) on Saturday, January 14, 2017 at 11:00 am with Rev. Andrea Brennan officiating. Condolences may be registered at www.fantinsfuneralchapel.ca.
In lieu of flowers, Brenda’s family asks that you register as an organ donor. A match couldn’t be found for Brenda in time, but more donors mean more people will have a chance to live. Please go to www.ultimategiftalberta.ca for more information and to register.
“Good night, Dick.”
