It is with deep sorrow that we announce the passing of Tracy Elda Mary Martin (nee Spooner), a beloved wife, mother, grandmother, sister, and friend. After a courageous battle with ovarian cancer, she passed away peacefully with her family by her side on Monday, October 29, 2024, at the age of 48.
Tracy was born on July 18, 1976, in Sudbury, Ontario, to Larry and Ginette Spooner. On April 30, 1994, she married Paul Martin, and together they raised four beautiful daughters: Abigail (Kevin Bowman), Kaylee (Ryan Hopcraft), Alexis (Justin Greig), and Kiandra (Zack Vokes). Tracy was a devoted grandmother to her six grandchildren: Scotlyn, William, Charlotte, Raelyn, Everly, and Brynlee. She was also a loving sister to Lee-Ann Spooner (Ciaran McCarthy) and Tina (Matt Gardy), and a cherished aunt to many nieces and nephews.
Known for her warmth, kindness, and unwavering devotion, Tracy lived a life filled with love, joy, and dedication to her family. Her quick wit, warm smile, and love for gatherings will be deeply missed. Tracy was a pillar of strength, holding her family together with values of love, respect, and generosity.
