Tracey Thomas

Tracey Copenhaver Thomas, age 73, of Coshocton passed away on Thursday, February 26, 2026, at her home.

She was born on September 30, 1952, in Coshocton to the late Lewis “Chubby” and Jean (Simmons) Copenhaver. On March 23, 1987, she married John Thomas, who survives.

Tracey was a gift to others as she was a house cleaner, always leaving a space better than when she arrived. In her spare time, her and John traveled in their camper, enjoying the outdoors. Their travels extended to Europe, California, and Virginia. In the outdoors, her and John loved to take rides on their Harley Davidson.

Tracey had a fun-loving spirit; she enjoyed music and if there was a band you could find her letting loose, dancing. She shared that love with her daughter as Tracey was a full dance mom, supporting Hallie in her years of competitive dance.

Tracey and John were fans of the Cleveland Indians, always cheering them on and never missing a game.

Along with her husband, John, she is survived by her daughter, Hallie Thomas; siblings, Paula Esselburn and Karen Copenhaven; aunt Mickie Galajda and Carolyn Lawrence as well as nieces and nephews, Lauren, Megan and DJ, Ryan and Mindy, Kyle and Jennifer and a host of cousins.

She was preceded in death by her parents and brother, Clint Copenhaver. Calling hours will be at The Miller Funeral Home on Saturday, March 7, 2026, from 11 a.m. to 1 pm. with a memorial service beginning at 1 p.m. with Ric Bonice officiating.

St. Jude was her favorite charity and any donations in her name would honor her memory. Donations can be mailed to 501 St. Jude Place, Memphis, TN 38105.
