Paul J PlonskyNo words can explain the loss I'm feeling of my brother David. He most definitely would give his shirt off his back for you and I can remember the numerous times he and I just had some great laughs , worked together and he would always give me the drive to keep going on a job and had a gift to give people confidence! David also had a dark side where as he suffered gravely with mental illness that he was too proud to confide in too many but we have talked about it and because he entrusted in me and respected me I wish he'd have called out to others as well. I will severely miss him. He is in good hands now and at peace. Love ya bro, RIP

Remember when you feel the warmth of the sun on your face, or a cardinal is near by, or you happen to see a butterfly or a dragonfly, remember it is David letting you know he is okay, and that he is near and always with you in your heart. God Speed David. You will be truly missed.

Dave I know you see me typing this message from heaven. I am so happy I took a chance hiring you to cut down the tree in the back of my house at 4905. You gave me a great price and I gained a long time valuable friendship. You helped me in many ways throughout the years and always had a listening ear when I would need someone to talk to, or even vent. You would try and help me find a resolution to problems when needed. I always did my best to reciprocate and show my appreciation and be there for you as well. My door was aIways open for you and even when you went away a few times I would take your calls and write you back. I wish we could of talked about whatever problems you were experiencing. I now feel a void in my life and must pray for healing. I will miss your visits where you always seemed cheerful and would lift everyones spirits. I will miss you greatly, but know we will see each other again in heaven. Love to you, Uncle Dean!
