Marianne Loftus, age 77 of Omaha, passed away on January 12, 2024.
Marianne will forever be remembered as the matriarch of her family and as always being ahead of the curve on acceptance for all. A passion for helping the less fortunate, especially those dealing with mental illness, inspired her to start a food pantry out of her home in the 80’s for the Siena Francis House. She continued to help others and remained active in the St. Pius X church community for many years. She was a wonderful cook and a dedicated wife, mother grandmother and aunt. She loved her dog and constant companion, Robot. She was a faithful and beloved friend and she will be missed by all of those who knew her.
Preceded in death by parents, Robert and Evelyn Fowler; brothers, Mike Fowler, Joe Fowler, Bob Fowler; sister-in-law, Rosemary Loftus; brother-in-law, Jim Loftus.
Survived by loving husband of 55 years, Larry Loftus; children; Mike Loftus, Keri Loftus (Kenny Meyer), Tom Loftus (Bethan Thomas); grandchildren, Matilda, Isabella, Jack and Lillianna; sisters, Kathy (Ed) Neill, Elyse Coyle, Margie (Gary) Brooks, Sally Fowler; numerous nieces, nephews, grand-nieces, grand-nephews and a host of friends who were like family.
