Emilee Woodruff and Autumn Melody-Noelle Wlock of Saginaw, Michigan
Our beloved daughter, mother, granddaughter, and fiancée passed away unexpectedly on Tuesday, February 25, 2020, at their home. Emilee Jean Woodruff, age 23, was born on October 19, 1996, in Saginaw, Michigan, to Shawn Woodruff and Hollie Michalski. She and her fiancé Michael A. Wlock welcomed their beautiful and cherished little girl, Autumn Melody-Noelle Wlock, into the world on April 20, 2019. Emilee graduated from Bridgeport High School with the class of 2015. While in high school, she had also taken classes with the Bay Arenac ISD. Emilee worked as a hospitality Ambassador with Covenant HealthCare and was also a server at Applebee’s in Birch Run. She was a faithful and devoted member of Cornerstone Christian Center of God. Emilee’s faith inspired her to be a prayerful servant to her family, church and community. She had a heart-of-gold and was selfless to anyone she loved. Emilee was creative in all endeavors, especially making fur suits, painting, drawing, and photography. She also enjoyed her silly dances, Halloween, and Com-A-Con. Above all, she loved and cherished being a mother and teaching her daughter her first words “Mama” and “Dada.” Autumn will forever be remembered for brining so much joy, love, laughter, and light to her family.

Wlock of Saginaw; mother and father: Hollie (Jason) Michalski of Saginaw; Shawn (Jennifer) Woodruff of Saginaw; three sisters and two brothers: Amanda (Mark) Johnson, Merrandah Newman, Danielle Poppe, Daniel Michalski, Jacob Warner; grandfathers: Allen Woodruff of Saginaw; Bruce Allen of St. Charles; a niece; Michaels parents and siblings: Bruce (Elaine) Wlock of Saginaw; Rosemary Reinhardt: Andrew, Sammie, and Lily; and her black Labrador retriever, Midnight.
