Marianne Terese Morris

Marianne is survived by her loving husband of 40 years, Phil Morris; son, Brian; daughter, Melissa (Graham); two grandchildren, Gavin and Mason; mother, Gertrude; five brothers, Paul (Nancy) Esper, Doug (Sally) Emmons, Jim Emmons, Bill (Rae) Emmons, and Mark Emmons; and three sisters, Sue (Ed) Burgess, Karen (Dale) Conroy, and Julie Emmons. She is preceded in death by her father, Walter.

Marianne and Phil spent 40 beautiful years together making memories. Together, they enjoyed hiking, biking, fishing, bird-watching, and being on the pontoon. Marianne loved nature and all that the outdoors had to offer. She loved the ocean and crashing on the shore to watch the sunset. She enjoyed baking just as much as people enjoyed her baking. She had a strong devotion to her Catholic faith and she loved spending time with her grandkids. She will be missed and her memory will forever be cherished by all who knew and loved her.
