Traci Martin Obituary
Publish in a newspaper
Traci is survived by her loving parents, John and Effie Strayer; her brother, Jason Strayer; her children, Cristi and Travis Martin; her cherished grandchildren, Kieran, Damion, BrynnLee, Adalynn, Alexandria, Parker, and Cambrie; and ex-husband, but still close friend Danny Martin. She also leaves behind her beloved dogs, Kane & Semi, who were as much a part of her family as anyone else.
She was preceded in death by: grandparents, John and Cora Strayer and George Henry and Bessie May Callis.
Traci had a passion for woodworking and creating; she could craft beauty from the simplest of materials. She took great pride in her yard, finding peace and joy in working outdoors. Her hands were always busy, whether fixing, building, or making something special for those she loved.
Fiercely independent and endlessly determined, Traci was ambitious, dependable, and incredibly handy. She was as mechanical as she was crafty, as bullheaded as she was loving. She spoke her mind with honesty and cared with her whole heart. Traci's love was big, bold, and unwavering once you had a place in her heart, you had it forever.
Above all, Traci was a helper. She spent her life giving, supporting, and making things better for those around her. Her strength, resilience, and love will never be forgotten.
Memorial Service will be 1:30 p.m. Saturday, April 12, 2025 at Elliott Mortuary Chapel, with Pastor Jerry Stokely officiating. Friends may sign her book from 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Monday through Saturday and 1:00 to 5:00 p.m. Sunday at Elliott Mortuary. Cremation has taken place. Click here to view Traci's service
