Marissa Plakosh - Online Memorial Website

I went through my whole high school career being friends with "play" Marissa's brother. We played on the golf team together for 3 years and coach joc would always put us in the same group because he knew how much fun we had together. If it were'nt for the golf team it seemed like I was over the playkosh's house every weekend just hanging out, so naturally started to become closer with Marissa. I'm sure everyone has nice things to say about her due to such a tragic event, but from the depths of my heart I WANT TO SAY THAT Marissa Plakosh was one of the most pleasant people to be around I've ever met in my entire life. Due to her sense of humor and urge to always have a good time we got along great. Marissa truely cared about me and everyone else she talked to and never had anything bad to say about anyone. She really did make me a happier person, even though I lost touch with her recently I will always remember the special bond we shared,  and this event has changed my life forever. If everyone could be as happy as Marissa was the world would truly be a better place. She is in a better place I'm sure of it, but I will never forget her.............................

First off i would like to send my Condolences out to the entire Plakosh family and I am very sorry for what happened. As Mikes roomate I have become very close with him and his sister this past fall. The jokes I hear mike say, and the jokes she says are identical. They were literally best friends. One thing I will always remember is they always quote Napoleon Dynamite. For mike's birthday this year she wrote him a birthcard but not any birthday card. This card was a special card from the movie that when you opened it, a sound clip from their favorite part of the movie was exerted from a hidden speaker. This is the kind of relationship they had.Marissa had a way to always make me laugh. Most the time it was because she was making fun of me or calling me something like iWeiss to poke fun at my telephone which she often did. It wasn't until about 2 months ago when I finally relised how much i enjoyed the presense of marissa plakosh. I did laundry at her dorm and hung out with her for 2 hours and she even took me to eat in the dorms. That night I relised the goodness that was Marissa Plakosh. Half because she folded my laundry but she always had a way to make me laugh. Those two hours I spent with her I will remember for the rest of my laugh. Or when i would be sitting on my couch and hear someone runnning up the stairs real hard and running into my living room. It was always her in the middle of run stopping for a drink of water. I always poked fun at how she took the entire bottle of water and shoved it down her throat as fast as possible. I will surely miss cleaning that water up off my furniture. Not a week went by where I didnt talk to Marissa atleast 5 times a week. Most of those was her wondering where her brother was or she wanted a ride to easton, or maybe just wanted to hang out because she lonlely or homesick. For that time being I was somewhat bothered. But as hard as this is to say the biggest thing I will miss about her is the things i disliked the most. And those were those text messages and phone calls at all hours of the day to bug me to help her do things or find people. Marissa I miss you with all my heart and hope your in a better place now. I know I can't make it to your funeral because I am in florida but in heart im 100% there playing with my iPhone just for you. Love, Andrew Weiss

Mike...what a tragic loss and what a lovely lady.  My heart goes out to you.

Hello I'm one of Jehovah Witnesses I didn;t know Marissa but from watching on the news and meeting someone that knew her who works in Dr. Dutko dental office I just wanted to say a few words of encourgement to the family.  It is hard when you loose a loved one to death especially being so young.  But if you get a chance look up 2 scriptures in the bible one in Rev,21;3,4 and the other os in John 5;28,29.  Again I'm so sorry for your lose, whenever I see it on the news I just want to do something for your family.  If there is anything I can do please tell me.

I am so sorry to learn of your loss.  It is especially sad to lose a beloved child, one that was so vibrant and full of life. She is in a place where all young lives that are lost too soon can dance, love and share togetherness.  She will especially look down and take care of everyone now from a higher place.  The Plakosh family is in our thoughts and prayers.  You were blessed by having her in your lives.

to the students and staff of the ohio state university will miss marissa so much she was such a good friend to all of us.

All of my love and prayers are with you and your family. I lost my daughter 3 years ago. She was 16. I want to tell you that if you let God carry you through this and trust in His love you will see the light of life again. Turn to God.  Marissa is safe and in the loving arms of our Lord Jesus.  It is those of us left behind that are left with questions, fear, and uncertainty.  Let the Lord enter your heart and give you comfort.  I will be praying for all of you.

On behalf of all the residents and staff of Stradley Hall, we want to offer our sincerest condolences, thoughts, and prayers.  Marissa was a joy to have in our building and she will be sadly missed.  Marissa will always be a Buckeye.  Best wishes!

I did not know Marissa or her family, but reading about this terrible accident has made me feel so sad for her brother and Mom and Dad and extended family. What a beautiful, talented and loving daughter and sister she was.  As a mother myself I am so sorry about your loss, many people are praying for you and your family.  Marissa is fine, its those she left behind that need our prayers.  God Bless.
