Remembering a great Lady, always kind, always welcoming.

So sorry for your loss. I never remember your mom being anything but kind with that beautiful smile. Always loved those times when we would visit at the cottage. She and your dad, Herm, are now together again in heaven.

"Aunt Marian" Platte elegantly combined humor, integrity, compassion and good will. Her qualities will surely survive her in the lives of many family members and devoted friends. Julie Ebers Neff & Robert Neff.

My condolences to all your family. Your Mom was always kind and is a very sweet memory from my childhood. May your loving memories always comfort you

My heart is with your whole family during this time. She was a very special lady and your whole family dealt bravely and wonderfully during her whole disease process. She was a blessed woman through her daughter Judy and all who cared for her. I always hold the memories while growing up of spending time at the Platte house and updating her on all the happenings of my life and was always filled with laughter and fun times. Always good memories. Many things I learned from her I took into my own...

Such a lovely kind and caring woman! Always with a smile and an laugh. Marian nicknamed me "Dickens" probably because of the trouble I would get Stephen into. She and Herman and the kids were always like a second family to me and there ate so many wonderful memories of card games, playing football in her back yard, great times at Hess Lake and just being around the Platte family. Thank you for being like a second Mom to me. Say Hello to Herman for me !
May eternal rest grant unto her...
