Tina was born in Flint, Michigan on November 25, 1963. She married Phillip Pettey, Jr. on February 15, 2008 in Mt. Morris, Michigan. Tina was a light in the lives of everyone who knew her. With a charisma that was larger than life, she had a way of making people feel special, always putting others before herself. She was never shy, always unapologetically herself in every way. Her giving heart, caring nature, and boundless love left a lasting impact on those fortunate enough to call her a friend. Her faith was a cornerstone of her life, and she was a devoted member of St. John Catholic Church. She found joy in making people smile and laugh, spreading warmth wherever she went. Some of her greatest happiness came from spending time with her grandchildren, whom she adored beyond measure. Tina had a passion for shopping, especially on QVC and JTV, and she had a soft spot for animals. She was an incredible friend, a loving wife, a devoted MiMi, and a beacon of kindness to so many. Her presence was a gift, and her memory will continue to live on in the hearts of those who loved her.
Tina is survived by husband, Phillip Pettey, Jr.; children: Justin Aulph, Brandon (Stacey) Aulph, Ryan (Jessica) Aulph, Ashley (Salvatore Jr.) Anselmo, Krys (Lauren) Pettey, and Joshua Pettey; grandchildren: Kaleigh, Emmalyn, Alexander, Gracelyn, Landen, Isabella, Amelia, Sebastian, Selena, Autumn, Riley, Liam, Salem, Marcus, Alaura, and Killian; many other loving family members and friends.
