Heather Renee Tolin

Heather Renee Tolin, age 13, of Ruth, MI. Heather was born August 22, 1998 and went to Jesus' arms peacefully in her sleep early Saturday morning, November 26, 2011. In life many people called her disabled, but in reality she was very able and let the world know the simplest joys with her smile and contagious laugh.

She is survived by her parents, Tim and Sue Tolin of Ruth; brothers, Brent Tolin, Patrick Tolin, Sean Tolin and Gabriel Tolin all of Ruth; sisters, Wendy Tolin of Bad Axe, Megan (Jason) Walters of Hazel Park, Bethany (Jerry) Campbell of Pickney, Katy (Robert) Staley of Hazel Park, Mindee (Tommy) Dubrico of Marine City, Robyn Tolin, MaKenzie Tolin, Brianna Tolin and Kim Tolin all of Ruth. She is also survived by 18 nieces and nephews, her paternal grandmother, Joan Esposite of Dallas, Texas; 3 aunts, 3 uncles, cousins and many friends.

Heather is preceded in death by her brothers Raphael, Joey and Christopher Tolin; and sister, Aaliyah Tolin; her maternal grandparents and paternal grandfather.

There will not be any viewing or service at this time. There will be a celebration of her young life at a later date as we want to remember her in life, not in death.

Cremation services have taken place. Arrangements were handled by Juengel & Mellendorf Funeral Home, 538 S. Beck St., Sebewaing, MI 48759.

In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the funeral home for their love and care to help pay for Heather's arrangements are appreciated.
