Heaven got sweeter on August 19, 2021, at 1:32AM when Tracy Dawn Blankenship joined her Lord & Savior in Heaven.  Tracy was born June 18, 1970, in Webb City, MO.  She married Bill Blankenship on July 10, 2004, and they lived in Kimberling City, MO.

She is survived by her husband Bill and her parents, Jerry and Ruth Hageman of Galena, MO., and mother-in- law Paulette Blankenship of Bolivar, MO. In addition, she is survived by her sister JeRaye and her husband Wes Haynes of Allen, TX., brother Mark Hageman and wife Wendy of Shawnee, KS., brother Brandt Hageman of Olathe, KS., and brother Troy Brooks of Oregon.  Tracy is also survived by five nephews, Dr. Shawn Haynes and wife Dr. Alyssa Haynes of Miami, FL., Jarod Haynes of Allen, TX., Lucas Hageman of Olathe, KS., Adam Hageman of Shawnee, KS., and Cole Hageman of Shawnee, KS., and two nieces, Miranda Blakley and Garrett Blakley of Murphy, TX., and Lydia Hageman of Shawnee, KS.  In addition, Tracy was a great aunt to Wesley Blakley, Kayson Haynes, Tatum Blakley, Raelynn Blakley, and Emberly Haynes.

Tracy and Bill never had any children of their own, but they loved children and entertained their nieces and nephews at the lake many times.  They substituted "fur babies" for children.  Tracy leaves behind in Bill's care their three puppies and three kitties, Izzy, Roxie, Snickers, Thor, Pepper and Lucky, who already miss her deeply.

Rest in peace our precious Tracy!
