It is with deep sadness that we announce the passing of Tracy Butland, who left us on February 11, 2026, in Brantford, at the age of 55.
Born on July 20, 1970, Tracy was a truly creative soul. She had a deep love for art and found her greatest joy outdoors, painting in nature and capturing the beauty of the world around her. Her creativity was not just a hobby – it was a reflection of her spirit. She saw colour, light, and possibility in places others might overlook.
She leaves behind her loving sister, Leeann Martin, Bonnie and Norm Arbour; and her cousins Sarah, Ivan (Misty Arbour), Roxanne, and Crystal, nieces – Jessica Smith and Maiya Martin, along with extended family and friends who will forever hold her memory close.
Tracy will be remembered for her artistic heart, her gentle spirit, and the beauty she brought into the lives of those who knew her. Though she is no longer with us, her love and creativity remain – like a painting that never fades.
She will be deeply missed and forever remembered.
Funeral arrangements entrusted to Dwayne. D Budgell Funeral Home, 1105 Rest Acres Rd., Paris, ON. In accordance with Tracy’s expressed wishes, cremation has already taken place. Donations to a charity of your choice in Tracy’s memory would be appreciated by the family.
