April 7, 1967 – July 12, 2026

It is with profound sadness that the family announces the passing of Tracey Gordon Wannamaker of Buffalo Lake Métis Settlement on Sunday, July 12th, 2026, at the age of 59 years.

Tracey lived life with a free spirit, a contagious laugh, and a heart full of love. She found joy in the simple things… being outdoors, listening to music, and dreaming of one day owning horses, which had always held a special place in her heart. Her greatest pride and deepest love were her children and grandchildren. She was kind, funny, beautiful, fiercely independent, and unapologetically herself, a light that made everyone around her smile.

She leaves behind a family who will forever cherish her memory and carry her love with them her husband, Mike Wannamaker; her daughters, Alyssa (Nick) Mayers and Charlene Grant; her goddaughter, Leanne Grant (Curt McConnell); her beloved grandchildren, Rayne Bell, Malakai Mayers, and Ellanor Mayers; her mother, Helen Lukasik; her father and stepmother, Bruce Gordon and Sandy Gordon; her sisters, Holly Gordon, Loreli Hornby, and Amber Grudzinski; her brothers, Aaron Alexander and Shawn Gordon; along with many nieces, nephews, extended family members, and dear friends whose lives were made brighter by knowing her.

Tracey was predeceased by her beloved brother, Clinton Gordon, whose memory she held close to her heart.
