Stacey Florence Conner, age 42, passed away on March 21, 2026, in Tyler, Texas. She was a loving wife, devoted mother, and cherished friend whose kindness and warmth touched everyone who knew her.

Stacey was preceded in death by her father, Richard Gower. She leaves behind a family who will forever hold her memory close: her husband, Matthew Conner of Mineola, Texas; her daughters, Jade Gower of Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, Sadie Smith of Nacogdoches, Texas, and Faith and Mia Smith of Mineola, Texas; along with many extended family members and dear friends.

Stacey had a gentle spirit and a compassionate heart. She had a way of making people feel seen, valued, and loved. Whether through her laughter, her strength during difficult times, or her unwavering support for her family, Stacey created a lasting impact on those around her. She found joy in the simple moments—time spent with her children, conversations with loved ones, and the comfort of being surrounded by those she cared about most.

Her memory will live on through the love she gave so freely and the lives she touched so deeply. She will be greatly missed but never forgotten.

A celebration of Stacey's life will be held at The Mineola Nature Preserve, Saturday, April 11th from 5-7 PM, where family and friends will gather to honor and remember her beautiful life.
