Obituary For Gerald H. “Bud” Plischke

In the early morning hours of September 24, 2022, our husband, dad, and grandfather, Gerald “Bud” Plischke greeted the angels with the same kindness, dignity and grace that he led his life. A true “gentleman” in every way. Bud had adventure in his heart. At 17 he joined the navy and set off to see the world while defending the United States of America in Korea. In 1955 he embarked on the biggest adventure of his life, marrying Gloria, our mother! From downhill skiing in the Swiss Alps, to the beaches of Cabo San Lucas, fishing at Spirit Lake or in Alaska, Bud was always open to new experiences. He was kind, talented, giving, patient and there was nothing that he couldn’t put together or fix with a little ingenuity. Rest peacefully. We love you always.

Bud is survived by his wife, Gloria, children Jill Reyes (Juan) and Kim Plischke, grandchildren, Corey McClain (Kayla) and Sean McClain, brother, Darrell Plischke (Kathy) and sister Arline Kamp.

Honoring Bud’s wishes, there will not be a formal service. Private family interment with full military honors will be at Tahoma National Cemetery at a date to be determined.

In lieu of flowers the family requests that remembrances be made to the American Heart Association or St. Jude’s Children Hospital.

"I just to say thank you so much to the Cady cremation team. They were so helpful during our family's hard time. They took more calls from us then they should have and were helpful every time. Price was very reasonable."

"Taren handled all of our arrangements and was open, honest, and very easy to talk to. The facility itself is nothing too fancy, and that was perfect for us. They offer incredible keepsakes at very reasonable prices. Special requests were not a problem but there was never pressure to do anything we did not need or want. This facility also works flawlessly with the Tahoma National Cemetery. Hope you don't need them, but in case you do - our experience could not have been better."

"My wife suddenly passed on two years ago and I was in need of funeral home to handle the final arrangements for me. From the initial call I knew Cady was the one. I was treated with respect and was professionally guided through the entire process. The attentiveness to detail made the whole process much easier."
