Patti M. Taylor (Wachowiak), age 64 years of Escanaba, formerly of Saginaw, MI, passed away on Sunday June 21, 2020, at her home with loving family by her side. She was born on August 8, 1955, in Saginaw, the daughter of the late Duane and Joan (Foglesong) Wachowiak, Sr.
Patti spent most of her career as a phlebotomist and working in hospital labs and enjoyed it so much that after retirement she volunteered at the hospital. Patti and Mark Taylor married in 2003 and shortly thereafter ventured north towards their life in Escanaba. Although far from family, she loved living in the U.P. and the community she found there in her Wellspring Church family. Of all she has overcome and accomplished, Patti was most proud of her children, grandchildren, and the countless hand-made keepsakes she has left her loved ones and friends.
She is survived by her husband, Mark Taylor; mother-in-law, Deloris Taylor; children, Trista Stephens, April and Marty Turner; grandchildren, Cassandra Stephens, Gretchen Bauer, Austin Turner, Kirsten Bauer and Megan Menchaca; step-children, Beau and Julie Taylor, Marcus and Pam Taylor, Benjamin and Tammy Taylor; step grandchildren, Emma, Alison, Hailey, Lucy, Owen, Wade, Gabriel, Montana, and Montel Taylor; great-grandchild, Mimi Ann; siblings, Duane Wachowiak, George and Brenda Wachowiak, Madelyn and John Boelter, David Wachowiak and Amy Jones; brothers-in law: Greg Taylor and John Taylor, nieces and nephews: Amanda and Matthew Wachowiak, Phillip and Peter Wachowiak, Nicole and Samantha Boelter.
