Traci Blanks Obituary
Publish in a newspaper
She was the cherished daughter of the late Jerry Walters and Patricia Jones, and the stepdaughter of Gary Jones. Traci's legacy of love is carried on by her adoring daughters, Briana Newton, Britni (Scottie Ewing) Keaton, and Bridget Keaton. Her grandchildren, Peyton Keaton, Cory Keaton, and Kensli Ewing, were the light of her life, and she cherished every moment spent with them.
Traci is survived by her sister, Tia (Isreal Glick) Helvie Glick, and brother, Jerry Walters Jr. Her life was enriched by the presence of many nieces and nephews, as well as several great-nieces and great-nephews, all of whom she loved dearly. Traci was predeceased by her brothers, William "Bill" Walters and Herald David Walters, but their memories remained close to her heart.
An avid lover of the outdoors, Traci found solace in fishing and camping, activities that allowed her to connect with nature and her family. Her beloved fur baby, Tinker Bell, was a source of joy.
Those who knew Traci will remember her as a loving, kind, and thoughtful soul. She had an innate ability to make everyone around her feel valued and loved. Her gentle presence and compassionate nature were a comfort to all who were fortunate enough to cross her path.
Traci Jo Blanks will be deeply missed, but her spirit will continue to inspire those who knew her to live with love and kindness. Her memory will be cherished and kept alive through the stories shared by friends and family, and the countless lives she touched with her generous heart.
Palmer Funeral Home ~ Bubb Chapel, 3910 N. Main Street, Mishawaka, Indiana 46545 has been entrusted with her care.
