Marty was born in Flint, MI on September 8, 1958, son of the late Herman and Helen (Klocko) Morey. He was a proud graduate of Kearsley High School, Class of 1976. Following graduation, he attended the police academy, demonstrating early on his desire to serve and protect his community. On July 9, 1988, Marty married the love of his life, Cathy McDevitt. Together they built a beautiful life grounded in love, laughter, and unwavering devotion. Their years together were filled with cherished memories and a partnership that was an inspiration to all who knew them.

Known for his reliability, warm smile, and genuine kindness, Marty took great pride in serving his community. He formed meaningful connections along his routes, brightening the days of those who stepped onto his bus. A devoted member of St. John the Evangelist Catholic Church, Marty lived his faith quietly but faithfully, serving as an usher and a member of the St. John Men’s Club. He found joy in life’s simple pleasures – preparing meals to share with loved ones, camping beneath the open sky, and spending peaceful hours hunting and fishing. Whether gathered around a glowing campfire or seated together at the kitchen table, Marty was happiest when surrounded by family and friends. Above all else, Marty treasured time spent with those he loved. His warmth, generosity, steady presence, and gentle spirit created lasting memories that will be held close in the hearts of many. He will be deeply missed by his beloved family, his cherished kitty, Bella, and his many dear friends.
