A celebration of life will begin at 2:00 PM Tuesday, July 30, 2013, at the Abiding Savior Free Lutheran Church, 4100 S Bahnson Ave, Sioux Falls. Visitation will begin at 5:00 PM Monday, with the family present from 6-8:00 PM at the Minnehaha Funeral Home, Baltic. Per Tracy's wishes, instead of flowers she would like donations sent to The Teddy Bear Den or The Humane Society.

Tracy was born to Shannon & Donna (Hartson) Miller on February 23rd, 1966 in Sioux Falls. She graduated from Lincoln High School in 1984. Tracy was united in marriage to Jeff Warkenthien at Messiah Lutheran Church in Sioux Falls also in 1984. They welcomed their first child Jerad in 1985 and their second child Ashley in 1987. Tracy worked many years for Avera McKennan Hospital as a patient care technician and as a secretary.

In 2010, Tracy was blessed with the new focus of her life, her one and only grandson Torin. Tracy found much enjoyment in spending time with family, friends, and her pets.
