Theresa “Terrie” Marie Smallwood, 67, of Grayling, MI passed away peacefully at her home surrounded by her family on April 28, 2024.
Terrie was born to Jack and Constance “Connie” (Partello) Tobias on October 12, 1956 in Detroit, MI. Terrie really enjoyed making Christmas cookies and making jelly. She worked for many years cutting wood with Lisa. She also spent time working for Ausable Towing cleaning their offices and also cleaning other rentals.

She is deeply missed by her family and friends.
