Dear Kathy, Don, Ray, Patty & Family,
We were so saddened to hear of the passing of Mr. Plaskon. He & Mrs. Plaskon were such good neighbors & friends across from the Noe Family on Morrow St in Wilkinsburg. He was such a great guy. Always ready to drive his kids & the neighbors' kids to school & church. The Plaskons were wonderful friends to my Dad, Chester - taking him to church and especially the races. I remember Mr. Plaskon & my Dad having very "philosophical & leisurely" discussions during cool summer evenings on our front porch. And of course, the special memory I have is going with the Plaskon Family to Kennywood, going on all the rides with Kathy, and coming back to the picnic grove for a delicious lunch packed by Mrs. Plaskon.
Also, who can forget the street wiffel ball games with Johnny, Mary, Kathy, Don & Ray? And the hide & seek games when it was starting to get dark - - until someone yelled "FIRST TO SEE THE STREET LIGHTS COME ON!"? And, I'll always remember Patty being interested in raccoons at the State Park; she so loved her favorite plush toy elephant. The Noes and Plaskons all had great fun on Morrow St.
We miss Mr & Mrs Plaskon. You all have our heartfelt & deepest sympathy for your loss.
Love,
Mary Ellen (Noe) Bloom & Joel Bloom
Fort Myers, Florida
