Not sure what to say?

Bob and I were fortunate to have called Jim and you our friends when you and he lived in Bedford Hills, Cyril, and feel lucky that that friendship continued when you moved to Ohio. We have fond memories of days at the Bedford Hills Little League and how stories of those times would always be rehashed during phone calls! Our boys remember Jim as a tough but fair, much-respected teacher at Fox Lane; we remember Jim as someone who loved his wife and sons...and his life with you when you...

We argued over many things (Buckeyes vs. Fighting Irish,
Air Force vs. Marine Corps), but I respected Jim and will miss
His sense of humor.

Cyril, Bill, Jack and family: I'm so sorry for your loss. Jim was a good friend and neighbor. I'll always remember our years together in Bedford Hills. We were lucky to have that time together. My thoughts are with you and him.

I was a colleague of Jim's in the US Air Force Chinese Language training at Yale University a few decades ago. We were stationed at different Far Eastern bases. We kept in touch a few times after our military service. Rest In Peace, Jim!

My prayers are with your family. Mr. Plessinger was a great man with a zest for life. He will be missed!

He loved enjoying time with his sons, his wife, hosting friends to meals, meeting out for drinks/eats, heading to concerts and locking horns!

He will be very missed but all of us lucky enough to have become close to Jim know that WE...

Jim was someone i wish to have met sooner in life.I will think of the good times.
