Marvin Anthony Priske, aged 92, peacefully passed away on November 22, 2024 in Altamonte Springs, FL and will be lovingly remembered.

Rusty, as he was known by friends and family, was born in Hardin County, Iowa on April 10, 1932. He was no stranger to hard work, having been raised on a farm and served in the U.S. Air Force for 20 years. He was a proud veteran and often spoke of his time in the Korean War.

He was united in marriage with Wilma Jean Elkins in July of 1955. They moved to sunny Winter Park, FL in 1972, where he enjoyed fresh water fishing and working on his home.

Rusty is survived by his wife, Wilma Priske; children, Colleen (Roberto) Tabag, Richard Priske, and Gary (Susan) Priske; grandchildren, Carla (Daniel) Martin, Heather (Josiah) Tabag-Sullivan, Stephen (Kristan) Priske, Emily Priske, and Megan (Brandon) Stiffey; and sister Lola (Jim) Cathey.
