Todd H. Broullire

Todd was born Sept. 25, 1959, in Iron Mountain, son of the late Howard and Ann C. (Vondell) Broullire. He married Annie Mills on June 8, 1978, in Florence, Wis. Todd worked at Grede Foundry in Kingsford, for 36 years, retiring in 2012. That same year Todd, and his wife Annie, opened Annie’s Trading Post in Florence. In 2015, they opened Annie’s T&T Steakhouse in Aurora, where Annie has worked as head chef for many years.

Todd was always back and forth between both places. He would talk to anyone that came through the doors. His smile and charm was always so welcoming and he was very personable and a joy to be around. He will be sadly missed by so many.

Todd was an avid hunter and always looked forward to going out to camp with his family and friends. Todd was also an avid NASCAR and football fan and enjoyed watching both with his family and friends.

Todd is survived by his wife, Annie; his daughters, Dina Aho (Dennis-Weedge) and Emily Broullire (Bryan Moore); his brother, Jeff Broullire; grandchildren, Zoe Carollo, Shelia Carollo (Aaron Kennedy), Kelsey Aho, Karlee Aho, Bethany Cheney, Briauna Broullire, Paige Lequia, Mya Lequia, Emma Lequia, Preston Pearce, Braydin Pearce; great grandchildren, Maci and Alexander Mueller, Kaiden Cheney, Denna Kennedy; mother-in-law, Beatrice “Boots” Mills; sisters-in-law, Carol Broullire, Fran (Tony) Mitchem, Kathy (Lenny) Martin, and Chrissy (Eric) Christesen; brothers-in-law, George (Dawn) Mills and Joe (Sue) Mills; an aunt, Sandra Broullire; many nieces and nephews; cousins, Todd (Francesca) Broullire and Shari (Patrick) Troy; and his godchildren, Krystal Dewitt and Michael Christesen.

Todd also leaves behind some very special friends: Kelly Freeman, Lenny Martin, Thomas “Wacker” Wojdyla, Raymond Thomas, Tom Harrison, and many many more. He also leaves behind his favorite furry friend, his Bulldog, Hazel.

In addition to his parents, Todd was preceded in death by his daughter, Haley Marie; his brother, Greg “Chewy”; his father-in-law, Douglas Mills; his brother-in-law, Tom Mills; and seven uncles, Pete, Charlie, Marvin, David, Donald, Robert, and Lawrence.

Per Annie’s request, she would really like if everyone that purchased a #TODDSTRONG T-shirt please wear it to the funeral home on Monday and Tuesday if possible.

Visitation will be held from 4 to 7:30 p.m. on Monday, March 7 at the Erickson-Rochon & Nash Funeral Home in Iron Mountain. Prayers will be recited at 7:30 p.m. at the funeral home.

A Memorial Mass will be held at 11 a.m. on Tuesday, March 8, at Sacred Heart Catholic Church in Aurora. Fr. Quentin Mann will officiate. A luncheon at the C&R will follow. Burial will be in Homestead-Aurora Cemetery in the spring.
