Tracey Ranelle Smith

Tracey Ranelle Smith passed away on November 8, 2026, after a courageous battle with Alzheimer’s disease. She will be remembered as a devoted mother, a loving grandmother, and a deeply caring woman whose love touched her family, friends, and every animal fortunate enough to be part of her life.

Family was at the center of Tracey’s world. She loved her children and grandchildren deeply and had a special way of making people feel cared for, valued, and loved. Her compassion and generosity were among her most treasured qualities, and the love she gave will remain with her family always.

Tracey had a lifelong passion for interior design, turning her creativity and eye for beauty into a meaningful career. It was more than a profession; it was part of who she was. She had a natural ability to make spaces feel welcoming and beautiful and could turn any house into a home. Her family fondly remembers never knowing exactly what the house might look like from one day to the next because Tracey was always moving furniture, rearranging rooms, and finding a new way to make everything look just right.

She also had an unconditional love for dogs. Animals held a special place in her heart, and the affection and compassion she showed them reflected the kindness she shared with everyone around her.

Tracey’s greatest legacy is the love she gave, the family she raised, the memories she created, and the many lives she touched. Her warmth, creativity, compassion, and generous spirit will live on in all who knew and loved her.

She is survived by her sons, Josh and Justin; her daughter-in-law, Christine Smith; her grandchildren, Weston and Hudson Smith; her sister, Courtney Dickens-Johnson; her brothers-in-law, Ron Johnson and Eric Lavigne; her mother-in-law, Glenda Dickens; and Jack Lavigne and Eric Snow, who became a cherished part of her life and family.

Tracey will be deeply missed and forever remembered by her family and all who were fortunate enough to know her.
