Tracy Rae Parker

Tracy Rae Parker (Thompson), age 76, passed away peacefully on April 12, 2025, in Glendale, Arizona. Born on September 30, 1948, in Washington, D.C., she lived a full and vibrant life marked by unwavering devotion to her family. She was a loving wife and a doting mother, placing the needs of her family above all else and offering a steady foundation of strength, sacrifice, and compassion. Her life was a testament to the quiet power of unconditional love. Tracy is remembered with the deepest affection by her husband, Grahame, and her children: Vesper Parker, Tara Parker (Chris Owens), William Parker, Amy Parker (Aaron Kurek), Emily Long, Thomas Parker (Yvi Roderus), Molly Miller (Andrew Burns), Daniel Parker (Kera Parker), Geoffrey Parker (Kim Chu), and Timothy Parker. And her fifteen grandchildren: Tiara, Damon, Devon, Mariah, Makenzie, Cameron, Lexie, Lincoln, Alyenna, Landon, Oliver, Maci, Cora, Ava, and Julian. And her four great-grandchildren: Talen, Raven, Palmer, and Ezra. And her beloved sisters, Florence Connell and Diana Buzard. And her brothers, William Thompson Jr. (deceased), Bradley Thompson, Norman Thompson (deceased), Mitchell Thompson (deceased), Maxwell Thompson, James Roy Keller, Lance Keller, Dallas Keller, Dustin Keller, and Brett Keller. Tracy was preceded in passing by her parents, William Eugene Thompson and Ruth Townsend Davis. Though she worked as an insurance adjuster in both Canada and the U.S., she spent most of her career as a mortgage loan professional, where her dedication, integrity, and kindness earned her the respect of colleagues and clients alike. Also dear to her heart were her cherished dogs-an adorable Yorkshire terrier, Oliver, and a spirited Havashire, Clementine. A loving mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother, Tracy treasured every moment spent with her family. Her wisdom, warmth, and unwavering strength made her the matriarch we all turned to-her legacy will ripple onward for generations in the children she raised and the countless lives she quietly transformed.
