Publish in a newspaper
Tina was born on February 23, 1967 in Mount Clemens, Michigan. She was a daughter of David and Kathleen (nee Yaklin) Trombley. Tina graduated from Armada High School in 1985 and on March 8, 1992, she married Robert Ritchey II. They shared 33 wonderful years of making memories together. Tina is known for her infectious smile and loving personality. She was a staple in her community that she grew up in and loved deeply. You could always find her with a 24oz Sunrise cup filled with coffee from the local gas station. Tina worked as the dairy department manager at Vinckier Foods in Armada for many years and took pride in what she did. She loved anything that was Mickey Mouse. Tina enjoyed listening to music, dancing, traveling and vacations to Florida to see the ocean and lay on the beach. Her love for her family was unconditional and she took every opportunity to make sure they knew how much they meant to her. Tina's passing has left a void, not only in the hearts of her family but also her community. She will be greatly missed by all who knew her and loved her.
Tina is survived by her husband, Robert II; children, Robert (Kodi Walkowski) Ritchey III, Brooke (Daniel Longboat) Ritchey and Nicole Green; grandchildren, Joshua Trombley, Ysabelle Forgie, Michael Forgie and Malcolm Longboat; mother, Kathleen Trombley; and countless friends. Tina is preceded in death by her brother David Trombley, Jr. and father, David Trombley, Sr.
