Marlene Morris Obituary
Marlene Morris, age 74, passed away September 21, 2025. She was born September 26, 1950, to Clement and Veronica (Ciembor) Koziol in Omaha, Nebraska.
Marlene attended the Nebraska School for the Deaf and graduated with the Class of 1970. She enjoyed a full and active life, spending time traveling, camping, and fishing. She loved to cook and bake desserts for her family and friends, and she rarely missed the chance to cheer on Husker volleyball and football.
Above all, Marlene treasured time with her family. She especially loved supporting her grandchildren in their sports and activities, always proud to be their biggest fan.
She was preceded in death by her parents, Clement and Veronica; husband, Raymond; sister, Rosemarie.
Marlene is survived by her daughter, Darlene and husband Daniel; grandchildren, Faith and Rex; and many extended family and friends who will miss her dearly.
No services will be held at this time.
