Theodore "T.J." Sekely passed away on June 14, 2021 at the age of 76. Beloved husband of Diane for 49 years. Loving father of Erin and the "best second daughter ever" Kelly (Bill). Proud great uncle to Ethan. Also survived by brothers-in-law Michael (Kathy) and Dick, Nieces Amanda, Sidney, and Andy (Dom), and nephew Sean. T.J. will also be missed by his chocolate lab, Roxy, and many other loving extended family and friends.

T.J. proudly served 4 years in the U.S. Navy during Vietnam aboard the U.S.S. Dahlgren where he was a diver for the search and rescue team. He retired from Ford in 2009 and was an avid turkey and deer hunter.

T.J. would jokingly refer to himself as a "Jack of all Trades yet a Master of None." He will be missed dearly by those who knew him.

A memorial service will be announced for a later date.

In lieu of flowers, donations in T.J.'s memory are appreciated to the American Heart Association https://www.heart.org/ or the Michigan Department of Natural Resources.
