Tammy Woellner

Tammy L. Woellner, age 47, of Wausau, passed away unexpectedly on Sunday, June 3, 2018 at Ascension Good Samaritan Health Center in Merrill.  Tammy was born on March 10, 1971 to Mike and Kathryn (Bailey) Leder in Joliet, IL.  Her mother, Kathryn, survives.

Tammy attended and graduated from Merrill High School.  She had worked at Laura Lee’s (now Ballyhoos), All Aboard and Lincoln Wood until she was unable to work.  Tammy then became a stay at home grandma, spending time with her precious grandchildren, who were a priority in her life.  She also volunteered at the Open Door Shelter in Wausau.  Tammy was a giving and caring woman that would make you feel comfortable just talking to her.  She was also a great cook, making her specialties for her family and friends.  Tammy aimed to please people and was selfless by nature.  She was strong- willed, funny and had an engaging personality.  Recently, Tammy would enjoy spending time outdoors caring for her flowers in her yard.  She will be sadly missed.

Tammy is survived by her mother: Kathryn Leder of Mosinee, her long-time fiancé: Rick Schultz of Wausau, sons: Treg Leder and Noah Woellner, both of Merrill, daughters: Megan Higgins and Dominique Olson, both of Merrill, her beloved grandchildren: Emmalynn, Jaymason, Esperanza, Keyalah, Keyan and Carter, brothers: Charlie Dosher of Merrill and Mike Leder II of Beaver Dam, WI, sisters: Jamie Leder and Rebekah Leder, both of Merrill, her best buddy: “Major” and numerous nieces and nephews.  She was preceded in death by her father: Mike Leder and her nephew: Damon Johnson.
