Marsha L. Mikos
SARATOGA SPRINGS — Marsha L. Mikos, age 52, joined her parents Harriet and Henry Mikos in eternal rest on Saturday, August 6, 2016. She was a devoted sibling, friend, and veteran. Marsha is survived by her sister Maria Mikos-Sawyer, brother, Mark Mikos, several nieces, and a nephew.
Marsha had an innate desire to give and serve others. She served 22 years of military service in the United States Navy. Words that describe Marsha include devoted, loyal, caring, honest, sarcastic, stubborn, and a fighter. She didn’t hide who she was, she was blunt, and that’s what everyone loved about her. On any given day Marsha could be found out at a movie, or glued to the couch watching HGTV, food network, or YES; Marsha, like her father Henry, was an avid Yankees fan.
She befriended those whom were worthy of friendship. To Marsha, friends were synonymous with family. Much like her mother, Harriet, Marsha was well known for cooking. If she liked you enough, then you might have had the chance to try her famous cheesecake and/or mashed potatoes! Marsha’s touch on the world is one that will never be forgotten.
Friends and relatives attended a funeral service on Wednesday, August 10, 2016 at the William J. Burke and Sons/Bussing and Cunniff Funeral Homes, 628 North Broadway in Saratoga Springs. A funeral service followed.
Burial with military honors was held at the Gerald BH Solomon Saratoga National Cemetery, 200 Duell Rd. in Schuylerville.
In lieu of flowers donations may be made to the New York State Military Museum and Veterans Research Center, 61 Lake Ave., Saratoga Springs, NY 12866.
