Hello to the lovely but saddened Pleshar family. How sad for me to learn of Joseph's death in July of this year. I have such good memories of the years spent in St Gall parish, with the Pleshar girls "baby"sitting, and the many visits between Lorraine and Joe and me. - The occasional card games with Monsignor, the yapping doggie of Grandma's. The last time I saw them together was a few months before you lost your mother when they visited us in Los Angeles. You all are so fortunate to have had such parents in your lives.
I'm sorry I didn't know sooner, - I would have liked to send flowers.
My fond wishes to you that you find comfort in your prayers and the love of your many friends.

Dear Pleshar Family,
I just learned of your father's birth into eternal life and want to express my deepest sympathy for you during this trying time. Your dad,and your mom were defining pillars of St. Gall - parish and neighborhood - and have had a profound influence on many, many people including myself. Those who knew Joe and Lorraine in this life were extremely blessed, and their spirit lives on in each and everyone of you. You are and will continue to be in my prayers.

We lived in St. Gall Parish from 1962 - 1974. We have many fond memories of your parents' involvement at St. Gall's, their friendship with Msgr. Hishen, the Mr. and Mrs. parties, etc. They were a joy to know and were so rightfully proud of their children.
I still have the shells your Mother and I picked up on the beach during the infamous Carla C Cruise in 1972. Our deepest sympathy to all of you.

We are old St. Gall compatriots of your wonderfull dad and mom. We can not think of a finer couple who were fun, loyal friends and God fearing God loving and a joy to know.

Val and Family,
I am very sorry to read about the death of your dad. I know how you must feel and all of my prayers are with you and your family.
I know it has been a long time since we have had any contact, but I think of you often and wonder how you and your siblings are doing.
My mother always talks about your mom and all the good times they had together at camp and growing up. I think that your mom and grandmother will always hold a special place in my moms heart. She always liked your dad too. She use to say that he and your mom were just perfect for each other.
I do have fond memories of being at your house when we were in high school. Your parents were always very welcoming. It was also nice that we had a little bit of history getting to know each other. It is some what ironic that your mom and my mom were friends and my sister Sandy and Maureen went to school together and my sister Pam and I believe Vanessa were in school together as well.
I know you must miss your mom and will miss your dad very much but at least they are now together. I know that is very little comfort at this time.
Best wishes to all of the Pleshar Family. You will be in my families prayers.

Laurie and Family,
I am so sorry to hear of your father's passing. I have many wonderful childhood memories of you and your family. I am also sorry to learn that your mother has passed on. I have often thought of you and wonder where life has taken you. I hope that your life is fulfilling and that you are happy. I have used you as an example in explaining to my children how important it is to be kind and caring toward others. How everyone thought the world of you because you were always such a good person. Please know that you and your family are in my thoughts and prayers during this difficult time. May you find peace in your memories.
Love,
Arlene
