Hi MaryAnn, Phil & Family, We were so sorry to hear about Ben's death! We would love to have met a man with as high a quality of life and values as he had! I know from what you have told me, Phil, that he was a loving and honored Father, Father-in-Law, Grandfather and Great Grandfather. May the fond memories you have of him last not only for this lifetime but also throughout Eternity. With Sincere Christian Love & Prayers, Pat & Norval Redpath

Bruno, Helene & Ed, Kathy & Bob, Mary Ann & Phil and families, We were so saddened to hear of your Dad's passing so close to his 94th birthday. He and your Mother were such inspirations to me growing up and as an adult. Their devotion to their faith and family was evident to all who knew them. Ben was so proud of his family and beamed when he talked about them. His smile will always be remembered. You are all in our thoughts and prayers and be comforted knowing that your Mom and Dad are sharing in God's glory.

To the entire Plachta Family, What an endearing faith filled man! We are so sorry for the loss of Ben in all your lives. He always had a kind word, a smile and a hug/handshake for everyone. He loved being with people and sharing. I just spoke with him the week before he died. He was telling me about everything that was going on in the next few days. How blessed we all have been to have known him. Eternal rest grant unto him O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon him.

To the entire Plachta Family I was so sad to hear of Ben's passing. He was such a sweet person. He was so kind to me during Paul's funeral and our life together. Remember you have not lost him, he is in Heaven, you have only lost contact with him for awhile. Him and Paul is up there right now enjoying polish food together. Alice Pacwa
