Obituary: Tracy Barabonoff
By Contributor
It is with heavy hearts that we announce the loss of Tracy Barabonoff who passed on Saturday, June 4th, 2016 in Castlegar, BC. Tracy was born on August 20th, 1981 in Castlegar BC.
She is survived by parents Clarence and Liane, sisters Carrie (Allen) and Michelle, stepfamily Donna, Caroline, and Rayann, as well as many beloved friends.
Tracy was a dedicated Aunt to her three nephews and one niece, taking the role of nanny after the birth of her sister’s second child. Tracy loved to socialize with her many friends. She was an excellent listener and was always there for people when they needed someone to talk to.
Although Tracy gave much to her friends and family, she also loved her quite and introspective alone time. She enjoyed painting, spending moments in nature, and companionship from furry friends.
Tracy had a smile that lit up any room she entered. She will be remembered for her warm and caring heart, trustworthiness, willingness to help, fun-loving nature, and dry, quirky sense of humour.
A public memorial service and Celebration of Life will be held on June 14th at Brilliant Cultural Centre from 2:00-6:00 pm. Service to start at 2:30 pm.
As an expression of sympathy, in lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the family for a memorial bench for Tracy.
