Alison Luedtke Marlett, 75, of Brevard passed away in the early morning hours on Monday, December 7, 2020 at Solace-CarePartners. She was the daughter of the late William George and Faith Dalrymple Luedtke.
Alison was born in Milwaukee, WI and retired from Clemson University where she taught accounting for 30 years. She was an avid reader and loved learning and traveling with her husband, Wayne. She was a wise soul and generous spirit.
She is survived by her loving husband, Wayne Douglas Marlett; her beloved daughter, Rachel Margaret Drews; her wonderful 3 brothers, Bill, Paul and Robert and their families; her cousins on both the Luedtke and Dalrymple sides; and life-long friends.
Alison was a member of the UU church and choir in Brevard. She had a beautiful voice to match her kind heart. We will miss her dearly.
No services are planned at this time.
