Stephen B. MORLEY, of Adamstown, MD, formerly of Campbell,
NY, passed away on Friday, December 6, 2024, after a lengthy illness. Born December 2, 1935, in Wellsville, NY, he
was the son of Calvin and Gladys Neff Morley.
On July 2, 1960, in Ulysses, PA, he married the love of his life,
Pauline “Polly” Burdick, who survives.
They celebrated their 64th wedding anniversary this past July. A graduate of Ulysses High School, he earned
a bachelor’s degree in history and mathematics education from Lock Haven University
and a master’s degree in school administration from Alfred University. Stephen began his teaching career at Campbell
Central School as a classroom teacher.
Over his 41 years with the district, he served as a guidance counselor,
high school principal, and finally, the district superintendent. He was devoted to the school and the Campbell
community; both were a source of great pride.
He thought of the students as well as the people he worked with as an
extension of his family. Stephen was

committed to the Masons because of the positive impact they made on the
community. Surviving besides his wife,
Polly, are: two daughters, Christine (Brian) Andrukat and Andrea (Ron Robisch)
Morley; six grandchildren, Calvin (Meredith) Andrukat, Alexis Andrukat, Emma
Andrukat, Raeann Robisch, Lincoln Robisch, and Sky Robisch. Stephen’s love of his family was always
