Marlin Glenn "Marti" Peck Jr., 62, of Rulo, Nebraska, passed away on October 26, 2025, in Rulo, Nebraska. He was born on July 4, 1963, in Falls City, Nebraska to Marlin G. and Lois (Kirkendall) Peck. Marti's life was as full of independence and spirit as his Fourth of July birthday — a day that was joyfully celebrated by all who knew him.

Marti spent nearly 30 years living in Rulo, a place he much preferred over city life. He attended Milford College, where he studied auto mechanics. He later went on to work for Mickelberry's and Airlanco, where his expertise and work ethic were admired by many. In 1984, Marti united in marriage to Deeanna Sells Peck. Marti had a lifelong love for the simple joys of nature — hunting for mushrooms in the spring, harvesting pawpaws in the fall, and collecting Native American relics. He will be remembered for the close bonds he shared with his best friend, Ron, and with his sister Patrice and her husband Sean, whose love and support enriched his life. His memory will forever live on in the hearts of his family and friends who loved him dearly.

Marti is survived by his children: Nicole (Jay) Jackson, Jeremy (Hayley) Peck, and Mariah Peck (Austin Ramsey), four grandchildren: Seth Jackson, Garrett Jackson, Layke Peck, Lottie Peck, sisters: Patrice (Sean) Fitzpatrick, Anita Jaros (Randy Rowell), and Lisa (Doug) Young, and many friends and other family. He is preceded in death by his parents, Marlin and Lois (Kirkendall) Peck.

A Celebration of Marti's Life will be held at 11:00 a.m. on Saturday, November 1, 2025, at the Richardson County Museum, 1401 Chase Street in Falls City. All are welcome to join as we honor and remember Marti — a loving father, grandfather, brother, and friend.

In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be given to the family's choice with a later designation.
