Our beloved Arlee Williams, affectionately known as DeDe and Bozo went home to be with our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ on Thursday, July 5, 2012. Age 53 years. He was born on November 6, 1958, in Saginaw, Michigan to Cornelius and Mary Haynes.
Arlee graduated from St. Joseph Catholic School. After graduation, he became a Jack of all trades and a master of few. Arlee always carried a smile on his face and had a humble spirit. He accepted Christ and attended St. Pauls Episcopal Church which led him to the Unity Club. He made many friends there while receiving guidance and support.
Arlees memory will be treasured by his four sons, Monquiz Wedlow, Tampa, Florida, Arlee Wedlow, Flint, Michigan, Deontae and Trevon Mcintosh, both of Saginaw, Michigan; two sisters, Rosetta (Tod) Smith, Belleville, Michigan, Vonnie Williams, Saginaw, Michigan; one brother, Ray (Kim) Smith, Flint, Michigan; nine stepbrothers, David (Cyldia) Perry, Cornelius Jr., Bennie, John, Roosevelt, Thomas, Eugene and Ray Haynes, all of Saginaw, Michigan, Leroy Haynes, Huntsville, Alabama; one stepsister, Georgia (Robert) Robinson, Defiance, Ohio; many other relatives and friends including his special grandchildren, nieces and nephews.
Arlee was preceded in death by his father and mother Mr. Cornelius and Mary Haynes Sr.; his grandparents Cornelius Fisher, Johnnie William, Harrison and Mammie Haynes; stepsister, Lee-Ella Brown.
The family will like to extend a warm thank you to his special friends Kenny Champion and Lester Harris. We also would like to acknowledge Pat Wilson, Trina Burton, and Pat Swilley. A very special thanks to Narcotics Anonymous for keeping him on the right path.
