George’s Story

Site created on October 11, 2020

George has been battling a rare type of blood cancer. He's had odd symptoms for about 5 years and was finally diagnosed this summer. He was getting worse the past couple weeks and they found out he also has acute leukemia. He was very weak and entered the hospital in Tampa. They have started treatment.

Journal entry by Gigi Plautz

Information about George Plautz’ memorial service - 11:00 am Central Time - Saturday, June 12, 2021

To access the obituary, a slide show, comments friends and family posted on the Caring Bridge website last fall, go to rembsfh.com.  Type “George Plautz” in the search box and click on the magnifying glass.

Click on George’s name.  The obituary will appear.  Click on “tribute wall” to see the slide show.  The background music is a recording of polka music played by Mary Ann Lesar and Dave Pakiz at one of the Willard Polka Fests.

The program for tomorrow is also posted there.  If you’re looking at it on a desktop computer, the program doesn’t come out quite right.  The funeral home has never put a program on the website and was having trouble figuring out how to do it.  But you can see the whole thing if you access it on your phone.

Here is the link to the song we’re going to sing in Slovenian.  Everyone can join in on the chorus.  It’s very easy to sing the chorus.  The phonetic pronunciation is included in the program.
