Marlene Ann Wilmes was a wonderful and joyful wife, mother, grandmother, sister, cousin, and aunt. She was born October 27, 1932, to Leo and Rose (Moser) Wagner near Creighton. Marlene grew up southwest of Creighton with two brothers and two sisters. The neighbors came and picked them up and took them to school at St. Ludger Academy in Creighton. Marlene graduated in 1950 from St. Ludger High School with a class of 18 (three boys and 15 girls). While growing up, Marlene and her sister, Reet, cleaned house for their Grandpa Moser who lived up the road. While in high school, Marlene played the piano and went with the Glee Club to O'Neill to compete against other schools. She was the accompanist for the Glee Club, but also sang alto. She faithfully played "Bells of St. Ludger" at the annual St. Ludger Alumni Banquet. Following graduation, Marlene taught at a rural school east of Creighton for one year. She received "normal training" in high school so she could teach for one year, then would have to go to college. Marlene married Robert "Bob" Charles Wilmes on November 22, 1951, at St. Ludger Catholic Church in Creighton. They lived with Bob's parents until the spring of 1952 when they moved to town. In 1953, they moved to their farmhouse northwest of Creighton where she was a stay-at-home mom, helped milk the cows, and raised chickens. She worked for many years at St. Ludger School Lunch Program and in the Creighton Care Center dietary department. She volunteered at St. Ludger as a CCD teacher, organist, Prayer Partner, Prayer Line, and was an active member of St. Ludger Catholic Church, Altar Society, Catholic Daughters of America, and choir. She was involved in the community with the Red Cross, Senior Citizens, Busy Bee Club, and Right to Life volunteering at the booth at the Knox County Fair. She coordinated Hymn Time for several years at the Creighton Care Center. Marlene was a tremendous cook and loved baking bread and rubber duckies! She was happiest when surrounded by her family, especially her children and grandchildren, and loved spending time with them! Marlene enjoyed quilting, playing cards especially pitch, pinochle, and cribbage, dancing, traveling, and attending sporting and music events, plays, dance recitals, and County Fairs to watch her children and grandchildren. Marlene was preceded in death by her husband, Bob; son-in-law, Doug Hornback; stillborn daughter; parents, Leo and Rose Wagner; brothers and sisters-in-law, Paul Wagner, Dennis Wagner, Eldred Pitt, Henry and Beata Wilmes, Jack and Ruth Wilmes, Paul Moser, and Willie Fanta; and parents-in-law, John and Margaret Wilmes. Marlene always put others before herself and was loved and respected by many. We love you! Mass of Christian Burial for Marlene Wilmes, age 89, of Creighton, Nebraska will be 10:30 a.m. Saturday, February 19, 2022, at St. Ludger Catholic Church in Creighton.
