Jack Marley, 88, of Greenwood, IN, passed away peacefully surrounded by his family on April 5, 2023 at St. Francis Hospital in Indianapolis. Jack was born February 14,1935, in Martin County, Indiana to the late Jesse and Hallie Marley.

He graduated from Williams High School in 1954 and then from the International Barber School in Indianapolis (in addition to six of his siblings) in 1956. He proudly served in the US Army for four years. Jack married Glenda Ann Spaulding of Loogootee, Indiana on April 7, 1959. He and Glenda moved to Indianapolis where Jack spent many years barbering alongside his brother, Keith Marley. He then completed management courses at IUPUI and joined Hook's Drug Store (which became CVS) and retired in 1998.

After retirement he and Glenda traveled extensively and enjoyed winters in Florida with friends and family. They moved to Greenwood, Indiana in 2006 to be closer to their kids and grandkids and joined the community of Our Lady of the Greenwood Catholic Church. After Glenda's passing in 2012, Jack had the support of his family and friends and then met his second love, Barb Clark, who filled the last six years of his life with joy and companionship. He had been a happy golfer, community volunteer, and a parishioner at Our Lady of the Greenwood Catholic Church until his health declined.

Jack was preceded in death by his parents and seven siblings, Kathleen Tedrow, Kenneth, Keith, Paul, Don, Dale and Howard Marley; many sisters-in-law and brothers-in-law; his wife, Glenda; and infant daughter, Cheryl Ann Marley. His kindness, humility, and wonderful outlook on life will be remembered by his children of whom he was so proud, Kent (Sherri) Marley, Kirk (Cyndi) Marley all of Greenwood, Indiana and Michelle (John) Malina of Columbus, Indiana; along with his cherished grandkids, Dr. Kristen (Dr. Tom) Maatman, Sean Marley and Nicholas Marley, all of Indianapolis, Gabrielle Malina (Jeremy Harrington) of Somerville, Massachusetts, John (Molly) Malina of Columbus, Indiana, Conor Marley (Bryn Foreman) and Ethan Marley (Destiny Huegel), also of Greenwood, Indiana and his favorite girl, Barb Clark of Greenwood, Indiana. His extended family will miss their Uncle Jack.

Memorial donations in Jack's name can be made to Our Lady of the Greenwood Catholic Church, St. Jude's Children Hospital, or the Society of St. Vincent de Paul.

The family would like to thank the Palliative Care team at St. Francis for their kindness and guidance during a difficult time.

A private Mass will be held for Jack and a Celebration of Life at a later date.
