Marlene Veronica Morrish (Gersewski), beloved wife, mother, grandmother, sister, and friend passed away on April 15, 2024, in Albuquerque, NM, at the age of 76 after a year-long fight with Pancreatic Cancer. She was born on December 22, 1947, in Alpena, MI, to Edward and Dorothy Gersewski the 3rd of 7 daughters.

Marlene was a loving wife, mother, and grandmother who cherished spending time with her family. She was known for her passion for camping and traveling adventures, awesome campfires, creating hats, scarves, and blankets to donate to others, and playing games with the family. She loved being a grandma and was present at all events that involved her grandchildren. Her relationship with Ashlynn and Ryan was extraordinary. She loved bringing family and friends together for a meal; her favorite time was Christmas. Her kind and caring nature touched the hearts of all who knew her.

She is survived by her devoted husband, Charles, her children Elizabeth and John, her grandchildren Ashlynn and Ryan, and her sisters Ruth, Mary, Linda, Carol, Judy, and Penny.

Her memory will be treasured by her family and friends.

Marlene's legacy of love and warmth will live on in the hearts of those who knew her.

May she rest in peace.

My sister always loved a good laugh. We went to a dinner/theatre once when I was visiting in Albuquerque. I had a "fancy" dress and didn't realize that as we were leaving the restroom, it had gotten caught up in my pantyhose. Thank goodness Marlene was behind me! She saved the day for me. Love you, Sis.
