Dear Plys Family...
Almost a year. Hope you all have some sense of peace. My uUncle Frank and your Dad are probaly having a riot up in Heaven. God I miss his wonderful smile. I think of him often around dinner. I remember him coming home from work, when I would be over as a kid. He ALWAYS had that wonderful smile. Peace Jackie.

Mrs. Plys,
I'm so sorry to hear about Mr. "Zip" Plys' death. The "mohawks" were such special people. Those friendships I witnessed when I was young made a huge impact on me. We should all be so blessed to have "mohawks" in our life.
Love,
Jeanne Kowal Smith (daughter of Ted and Dorothy Kowal)

No one will ever forget that beautiful smile or infectious laugh that my Grandfather had. I will miss you every day for the rest of my time here on Earth and I begin my journey without you by my side physically. Instead you are here with me in my heart, guiding me and I thank you for everything you taught me and just how much you loved me.

Dear Bernice,
Dawn and I were so sorry to hear about the passing of Zip, What a great gentleman. I always enjoyed talking to him at family gatherings. Calumet City should take pride in what a great neighbor and citizen Zip was. Zip would often talk to me about catching my Father in Softball games at memorial park.
He will be missed,
The Blackburns, Brian, Dawn, Katie, Taylor, and Laura

Dear Bernice (Mom), Erica Lynn, Jackie, Frank, Jeff, Alyssa,
Richard, Denise, Jennifer and Jason,
I am so sorry for the loss of your husband, father and grandfather. Chester was a great man! As my father in law he was always wonderful to me. He was one of the most greatest men that I have ever known! I can't begin to tell all the stories, but I will never forget him. He always had a nice thing to say about everyone. I cannot say that I ever seen him in a bad mood or treat anyone unkind! I am going to miss him so much, but I know that he is with GOD and a much better place today. No more suffering and no more pain!

It was an honor to have known you, Chester, these past 14 years. You were an honest and honorable man and always good for a joke. You are at peace now. Go with God, and may his blessings carry your family through this time of great sorrow.

So sorry for yor loss. I have heard stories my whole life of the great times you, Chester, Adeline, Phil and my mom and dad had. Only very special people can maintain friendships that last 65 years. May God bless you all and help to ease your grief and may the angels guide Chester into eternal rest and peace. Our love and prayers to all of you.
