It is with the utmost regret that we inform you of the passing of our sister, Traci. Needless to say, she was a bright light, a wonderful daughter, an amazing sister, a loving mother, wife, grandmother, and a respected performer. We will miss her dearly. Traci passed this morning as the snow was falling, our angel is now a snowflake. We ask that you respect our privacy as we plan to send her home with love, celebrating her life. We are family forever. Love, The Braxton Family

I never watched Braxton Family Values but from the clip, I could find Traci was must-watch tv that is why it survived for 10 years and Tony was like the Kim K of the show. RIP Traci. Tamar is also must-see TV. And her mom was the peacemaker.
