Biography

Melissa Ann Taylor, 52 years old of Bad Axe, passed away on February 17, 2023 at her home surrounded in love by her family. Melissa was born on June 22, 1970 to Ken Hallock and Sharon Sobzcak. Melissa had her two children, Bret and Amanda when she got together with her husband Tim in 1995. Soon after they welcomed their baby boy Jonathan, and she and Tim were married in 2006 with family and friends by their side. Melissa loved her family, friends and all the times they spent together enjoying dinners, parties and the occasional concert. Melissa loved to bake and made the best 7 layered bars. In 2020 she got the news that she was going to be a grandma and she was so excited, she couldn’t wait. Her precious grandson Benedict was born later that year and he was the light that gave her strength through her final days. One thing Melissa was known for was her Haunted House that she designed and put together for 10 years with the help of her family. It became a reality from a goal her son had when he was no longer interested in trick-or-treating, but wanted to share the fun with the neighborhood. Even with all of the work, Melissa enjoyed sharing the excitement with everyone and handing out thousands of pieces of candy. Melissa worked for Detroit News, McDonald’s Food and Family, K-Mart, Walmart, and Thumb Industries. She enjoyed working with people.
