Obituaries

It is with great fondness we celebrate the life of Tracie Lee Glashaw, born on March 20, 1966, in St. Ignace, MI, and passed away on July 30, 2026.

As American author Dr. Seuss once said, "Don't cry because it's over, smile because it happened." This quote perfectly encapsulates the spirit with which Tracie lived her life, and how she would want us to remember her.

Tracie spent her career as a Long-Term Care Provider at a Senior Assisted Living facility, where she poured her heart into providing love, care, and companionship to the seniors under her care. Her strength of character, compassionate heart, and infectious laughter touched countless lives. Tracie's selflessness and dedication to her work will be remembered by all who were lucky enough to know her. In the words of Mother Teresa, "Not all of us can do great things. But we can do small things with great love." Tracie exemplified this sentiment in her everyday life.

Tracie is survived by her children, Michael, Justin, and Galen (Ashley) Kinney; and her grandchildren, Hunter, Kaitlyn, Kenzlie, and Korrisa Kinney.

She was preceded in death by her parents.

Visitation will be held on Friday, August 14, 2026, at 3:00 PM CDT at the Family Life Funeral Homes, 999 S. State St., St. Ignace, Michigan, 49781. A Memorial Service will follow at the same location at 4:00 PM CDT.

In remembering Tracie, we invite you to share your cherished memories, anecdotes, and upload photos to the memorial page. This will help keep alive the spirit of Tracie's love, kindness, and joyous personality. Let us honor her memory by celebrating the vibrant life she lived and the love she shared with us all.
