    Pat and George have been friends to so many people and we are glad to have been included in that group. They both brought unique gifts and experiences that will always be remembered. George could fix anything and Pat could make cloth and thread turn into beautiful creations. We missed George and will now miss Pat as well. So glad that they are once again together as they had been for so many years. Our hearts are with all the Placke family and you are in our prayers in a special way. We are still in St Petersburg, Florida and are unable to attend her service in person but we are there with you all in spirit and love. Sincerely Jim & Kathy Purcell
