Traci Anne Mills

Traci Anne Mills of Fort Smith, Arkansas passed away on June 2, 2022, she was born on February 1, 1964.

Traci was the second of three daughters born to Jack Gary and Bettie Anne (Williams) Mills. She graduated from Bryant High School in 1982 and attended Arkansas Tech University where, in 1986, she earned a B.S. in Business Administration, with a major in Marketing.

Traci was a dedicated, loving daughter, an always supportive, caring sister and sister-in-law; a doting aunt to four nephews and one great nephew; and devoted “supermom” to two Siamese cats: Champagne, 1981-2000, and Tippi, 2006-present. She nurtured lifelong friendships that began in high school classes and extracurricular activities and in college through her involvement in Delta Zeta.

Traci loved her cats, she loved vacationing at the beach along the Gulf Coast of Florida, she loved photography, and she loved her friends and family fiercely – especially her nephews. She was full of imagination and creativity and took great pleasure in crafting the perfect Christmas gift each year for four special boys – never just an envelope with money, but an adventure to discover, unwrap, and unravel.

Traci was a dedicated, detail-oriented business professional with more than 18 years of experience as office manager and 30+ years of experience overall in customer service, retail management, and retail and inside sales. She had exceptional interpersonal and analytical skills.

Traci is survived by her parents, Gary and Bettie Mills; sisters, Teri Mills (Ray) Bunce and Gari Mills (Rob) Rucker; nephews, Patrick (Churchill) Bunce, Garrett Rucker, Andrew Bunce, and Griffin Rucker; a great nephew, Jackson Patrick Bunce; a host of other family members, and many lifelong friends.
