Dear Bob and Family,
Our sympathies are with you on the loss of a very special lady. I was fortunate to get to know Pat through the LBS ladies 18 hole golf league. Pat was a real competitor, and I always enjoyed playing golf with her. We really miss her.

As always you and your family are in my prayers. The last time I was in Pat's company was at Mom and Chuck's Anniversary Party in which Pat stated at 9pm when everyone was making their way to the door. "It's the DINE AND DASH crowd" I had never heard it before as she explained that the parties start at 7pm and people come eat drink and are ready for bed at 9pm...DINE AND DASH. I will remember that phrase always and always think of Pat when they start for the door at 9pm. Many more good memories. I will dearly miss Pat Ploussard.

Dearest Ploussards: Our thoughts and prayers are with you during this difficult time. Randy and I have many, many happy memories of Pat from tailgating at Tampa Stadium to root on Da Bears, to boating on the waters off Longboat, to camping at the Red Neck Riviera (and elsewhere). Pat was a very classy lady with extremely colorful language which enhanced her quick wit and ability to tell a great joke! We will miss her and look forward to seeing her again in a much better place!
