Tina M. White, age 69, passed away at her home on October 24, 2025. A lifelong resident of the Toledo area, Tina was a proud graduate of Waite High School. After graduation, she began her career at First National Bank of Toledo before moving to Sylvania Savings. She later joined Sylvania Schools, where she held various administrative positions and made many lasting friendships over the years.
On February 5, 1977, Tina married the love of her life, Michael White. Together they shared 48 wonderful years of marriage built on love, laughter, and partnership. Tina and Michael enjoyed traveling together, especially to Las Vegas and Northern Michigan, where they created countless cherished memories.
Tina had a deep love for her family and was happiest when surrounded by them. She was a devoted wife, mother, and grandmother whose caring nature and thoughtfulness touched everyone she met. She was deeply involved in the lives of her children and grandchildren: attending various school events, cheering her grandchildren on from the sidelines, and hosting her treasured Sunday family dinners.
A passionate Michigan Wolverines football fan, Tina loved game days just as much as she loved sharing her famous lasagna or enjoying a perfectly cooked steak at her favorite restaurant. She was the rock of her family: steady, nurturing, and full of love. Her home was always immaculate, her heart always open, and her presence always comforting.
Tina is survived by her loving husband, Michael White; sons Brian (Tori), Scott (Julianne), and Craig (Anne) White; grandchildren Aiden, Kayla, Peyton, Henry, Grant, John, and Charlotte; and her sisters, Sue Vondran (Butch), Dolly Schutt (Wayne), and Donna Weiss. She was preceded in death by her parents, John and Anna Marusz. She will be deeply missed by all who knew and loved her.
Services for Tina will be private. Memorial donations may be given to the American Cancer Society Discovery Shop.
