Annette D. Tuer

Annette D. Tuer, age 72, of Livonia, Michigan passed away on Monday, January 24, 2022. Annette was born May 12, 1949 to John and Clara Herman. She was the third born in a family of ten children and the oldest girl. She often helped her mom take care of her younger siblings and was admired by them all.

She was transferred to Detroit Diesel Engine Division, where she met her future husband while pretending to know how to play tennis. She married Robert Tuer on November 24, 1973. Together they had four children in five years. She loved raising her children and worked many part-time jobs to provide the extra things that the kids would enjoy like a trip to Disney World and an inground swimming pool in the yard. Annette loved throwing parties at the house and entertaining everyone. All her siblings, nieces, and nephews have fond memories of the Polka music and fun that was had in the Tuer backyard.

Annette was very hard-working and had recently put together a list of all the jobs that she had over the years. At times, she would work three or four different part-time jobs, partly to buy the extra things that she wanted and partly because she loved meeting new people. In total, Annette worked at 41 different jobs in her lifetime.

She was blessed with nine grandchildren with whom she loved spending time. Annette was always ready with candy and a funny story whenever her grandkids came to visit. She will be missed greatly by her family.
