Special Memorial Service for Traci Braxton to be Streamed

Thursday, from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. the Braxton and Surrat Family will hold a special service to honor Traci Braxton, who passed away on March 12 after her battle with esophageal cancer.

After the news broke about Traci’s passing, her son Kevin shared the following message.

“When I heard the news about my mother being sick, first thing she said was I’m going to fight and beat this. She fought to the end and today she’s at peace. I love my mother forever and this hurts so much but I’m at peace knowing she’s isn’t in pain anymore.
I love you ma I’m going to miss you.”

A message was shared on Traci’s Instagram page that first wanted to thank everyone for love and support during this time for all of Traci’s family. 

“As we realize the loss of Our Beloved Traci was not Only our Loss we will open the Official Memorial Services to a Limited amount of Traci’s Fans to attend in person,” the post reads, “We know how much she adored, loved, and appreciated everyone.” 

Watch the service here.
