(Tracy “Wildman” Owen) Tracy Owen, 63, husband of Jana Owen, of Anderson, passed away peacefully at his home on Monday, December 26, 2022, while surrounded by his loving family and friends.
Born in Anderson, on July 24, 1959, he was a son of the late Pelham Guyton Owen, and the late Ruth Alice Meeks Owen.
He was a maintenance technician by trade, but Wildman's love for music started when he was about 10 years old. His sister bought him his first guitar. From this point on, music was a huge part of his life. He loved the Allman Brothers, John Prine, and so many more. Wildman played in many bands. He was the lead guitar player, singer, and harmonica player.
He loved the University of South Carolina gamecocks! He followed them his whole life and was a huge fan. They had so many bad years, but it didn't matter to him. He loved The Gamecocks through it all, and when they did have some good years, he was over the moon about it!
Through his illness, he showed nothing but love to his wife, his sister, and his brother. We will miss him so very much, but we know he is in heaven with our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, and our sweet mama.
He is survived by his wife, Jana Owen, stepchildren; Jason Isom, Jenae Wiley, and Daryl Wiley, sister, DiAnne Selman (Wayne), and brother, Rick Owen (Lynn).
He is also survived by his nephew, Kevin Selman (Marcia), niece, Jennifer Micle, great-nieces, Maddie, Megan, Katie Blake, and Ireland, as well as his loving aunt, Betty Christopher.
The family will receive friends from 1:00pm – 4:00pm on Saturday, January 14, 2023, in The Commons Area of Concord Baptist Church, 1012 Concord Rd., Anderson, S.C. 29621.
