Theresa Marie Marcotte

Theresa Marie Marcotte of Chesterfield Township, Michigan, passed suddenly on Tuesday, July 8th, 2025.

Theresa married the love of her life, Dennis Marcotte, on 14 January 1978 in Detroit, Michigan, to whom she was married until his passing in 1998.  She is survived by her daughter, Ninette (Patrick) Probyn, son, Steven Marcotte, and grandchildren, Jason, Daniel, Jaden, Liliana, Nathan, Noah, Michaela, and great granddaughter, Elizabeth, all of whom loved and cherished her more than anyone. She was also a special honorary grandmother to some “amazing kiddos”.  

She is survived by many nieces, nephews, and cousins.

 
Theresa was preceded in death by her husband, Dennis Marcotte, and her granddaughter Saraphine. 

Theresa was born in Detroit, Michigan, to Alphonse and Lilian Domienik, and was a sister to David, James, and Michael.  She enjoyed Scrabble, baseball games, trying new restaurants, playing cards, gardening, casinos, traveling, board games, and collecting nutcrackers.  Most importantly, she loved nothing more than spending time with her grandchildren, shopping, and watching them in their many activities, including academic and leadership roles, cheer, and band.  Theresa was a giver of birthday cards and lottery scratch-offs. 

Theresa was such a strong, dependable, supportive, independent, kind, loving, and compassionate woman.  A military spouse turned military mother who was always there to support her family and those she loved in any way she possibly could. She was honored for her hard work and dedication in the management of the Selfridge Family Support Group.  After she retired from Macomb County, she continued her support and community service work, helping her grandchildren’s school groups whenever she could, to include cheering them on both on and off the field.

Theresa meant so much to so many people. She will forever be loved and missed.
