STEPHEN PLOTNER Obituary

PLOTNER, Stephen C. Of Weymouth, MA, died January 17th, 2020 at South Shore Hospital from complications of pancreatic cancer. He was 70 years old. Steve, a Civil Engineering graduate of Northeastern University, worked in construction and facilities management, and retired in 2018 as Principal Engineer for Cost Data at RS Means in Rockland, MA. He was an active member of Trinity Church in the City of Boston, a member of the Trinity Choir, and for many years a volunteer in the Rosie's Place ministry at the church. Steve loved to sing and cook, and he enjoyed teaching seminars for his former employer during his retirement. He loved his family and his two cats. Steve is survived by his wife of 46 years, Judith Plotner of Weymouth, and his son Christopher (Nicole) Plotner of Chicago, IL. Steve was born November 5, 1949, the oldest of eleven children of Fred H. and Gladys Plotner. He is survived by his ten sisters and brothers: Bonnie (Steve) Trotter, Susan Plotner, Gwen (Bill) Karl, Sandra Plotner, Rebecca Plotner, Richard (Jayne) Plotner, Daniel (Michele) Plotner, Jonathan Plotner, Jeffrey Plotner, and Jill (David) Clements. He is also survived by his sister-in-law Suzanne Fallucco of Ledyard, CT, 12 nieces and nephews, and 7 grandnieces and nephews. He was preceded in death by his parents Fred and Gladys Plotner. We give thanks for Steve's ready smile and his life of faith and service. We are also deeply grateful to the many physicians and nurses who cared for him during his illness.

It has taken me a while to do this... but will miss you, Steve. SO many happy memories around the Plotner dinner table with lots and lots of laughs...debates... and who can forget the christmas light field trip around Everett??? And Steve drove us around to do it, sick as a dog with a cold but never complaining. Will look forward to seeing you again in the Kingdom to come.

I am so sorry to hear about Steve's passing. Just before I came down to the Dominican Republic last November before Thanksgiving, Steve and I had a little chat about his health, he was prepare to move a place where there will no health problems anymore, Steve was happy and cheerful easy to talk too to the end. My sincere condolences.

As a fellow tenor in the Trinity choir, I found Steve to be delightful. Seeing Steve and Judy both up front in their sections inspired us. Their enthusiasm and smiles were infectious. We will miss Steve so much.

Judy and family: I am so very sorry to hear about Steve's passing. I very much enjoyed meeting the two of you at The Ledges. Both of you have been so positive and encouraging since the onset of the news on Steve's health. The way you two have been bouncing back from different health issues, I too felt confident that this war was going to be won. I don't know much, but what I do know is...you got to watch a lot of beautiful sunsets from your "view at the top". May Steve continue to enjoy those views from the top and rest in peace.
