Tracy Ann Chitwood

Tracy Ann Chitwood, 59, of Anderson, Indiana, passed away on January 7, 2026. She was born on September 25, 1966, in Prince William, Virginia, to Tina June Klare.

Tracy lived in Palm Springs, Florida, before eventually settling in Indiana, where she made her home and built a life. She was a high school graduate and worked for a time at Chick-fil-A. In 1999, Tracy met the love of her life, John Arthur Robbins. Their story stretched across many years, and before John’s passing, they were planning to be married again.

Tracy loved enjoying life. She liked taking walks in the fall, coloring, shopping, and spending time with the people she loved most. She was proudly sober for 14 years—an accomplishment she held close to her heart—and she treasured being a grandmother above all else. Tracy attended Calvary Temple Church in Indianapolis with her mother.

Anyone who knew Tracy knew she was lovable, outspoken, and never afraid to tell you exactly how she felt. She loved Coca-Cola, eating ice, butterflies, sea turtles, and the colors purple and turquoise. Her big personality and honest heart made her unforgettable.

She is survived by her children: Robert Wesley Puawa, Tyler Lee Killmond, Victoria Davis, Tiffany Ann Chitwood, Morgan Daniell Shumate, Shantell Marie Robbins, and Steven Allen Smyser; her brother, Richard Holland; her sister, Peggy Sue Cox; her aunts and uncles, Linda Beesley, Tom Scott, Bradly Scott, Bret Scott, and Bryan Scott; her nieces and nephews, Mackenzie Ford, Jazzmyne Ford, Cody Morrison, and Terry Morrison; and her beloved grandchildren: Lee Davis, Joseph Davis, Nathaniel Davis, Lillith Davis, Akiah Davis, Colson Robbins, Jasper Pruitt, Lexie Smyser, Ashton Smyser, Jaxon Smyser, Alyssa Smyser, and Layla Killmond.

She was preceded in death by her mother, Tina June Klare, and the love of her life, John Arthur Robbins.

Service arrangements are pending and will be shared at a later date. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the funeral home to help with unexpected expenses and service arrangements.

Tracy was one of a kind — bold, loving, and full of color. Her memory will live on in the hearts of those who knew and loved her.
