Vasil M Markoff

Military

Object Number - UPL 19368

Vasil traveled worldwide, as he was also a WWI veteran. I know he visited China and Mexico, places where I lived as a kid, and that he was friends with other sergeants, such as my own father, Dr. Marvin B. Bank (dec.) He settled in Las Vegas, and taught his son the law. M. Daniel Markoff went on to pass the Bar exam in Nevada, and was appointed as a Federal Public Defender in Las Vegas. Vasil lived in the Charleston Heights neighborhood, and left a plethora of memorabilia ,as well as his own collection of in-flight pictures. Was an avid book and music collector. I am presently a Petitioner to administer his estate, as his son mysteriously disappeared.
