A memorial fund to help the family of the late Dean L. Morlan pay for funeral expenses has been set up at Umpqua Bank.

The fund was set up to cover the cost of a funeral in addition to medical bills for Morlan’s wife, Cheryl Morlan. Dean Morlan was a stage III Alzheimer’s patient and Cheryl Morlan also is in poor health.

Cheryl Morlan reported her husband missing on the morning of Thanksgiving. Searchers found his body the next morning in a wooded area off First and Irving streets in Coquille. He appeared to have died of exposure, Coquille police said.

To help the family, those interested can contribute to the Dean Morlan Memorial Fund set up at the Umpqua Bank branch in Coquille.
