In Memoriam: Michele Marsh

Emmy Award-Winning TV News Anchor Dies at 63

By Graham Rayman 

Michele Marsh, a longtime fixture in local TV news and something of a pioneer for women anchors, died Tuesday, her family said. She was 63.

The Emmy Award-winning Marsh died after a seven-year battle with breast cancer at her home in South Kent, Conn., her son John Paschall, 25, said.

Paschall said about two weeks ago, Marsh’s health began deteriorating. Doctors found that cancer had spread to her brain and the family brought her home.

“She fought an incredible fight, and she beat all the odds against her,” Paschal said. “The doctors thought she wouldn't see me graduate and wouldn’t see me get married, and she did both of those things.”
