It is with profound sadness that the Plauche family announces the heartbreaking loss of their beloved son, Link Plauche, a vibrant and joyful 3-year-old boy from Plaucheville, Louisiana, who tragically passed away following a drowning accident in the family pool.
Born to Cameron and Emily Plauche, Link was a ray of sunshine in their lives—a little boy full of curiosity, laughter, and love. His presence brought warmth not only to his parents but to the entire extended family, including his grandparents Allison and Blake Plauche and great-grandmother Cynthia, all of whom cherished him deeply. Link’s untimely passing has left the family, their community, and friends near and far reeling from an unimaginable loss.
Link was known for his boundless energy, innocent spirit, and the magical way he could light up a room just by being in it. Whether he was chasing butterflies in the backyard, playing with his toys, or curling up in the arms of his parents, Link’s days were filled with wonder. Though his time on Earth was far too short, the impact he made will echo through the hearts of those who loved him for a lifetime.
The accident that claimed Link’s life occurred at the family’s home and serves as a painful reminder of how fragile and precious life is. Despite efforts to save him, Link could not be revived. His passing has left a void that words cannot fully express. The family has asked for privacy during this extremely difficult time as they grieve and begin the long road to healing.
Link’s great-grandmother Cynthia shared the heartbreaking news with extended family members:
“Some unfortunate news about our extended family. Our cousin Cynthia lost a great-grandson, I think today, 4/5-year-old Link, son of Cynthia’s grandson, Cameron and Emily Plauche. Cameron is the son of Allison and Blake Plauche. Allison is Cynthia’s daughter. Link drowned in the family pool.”
This tragic loss has united the community in grief and support. Friends, family, and even those who have never met the Plauches have reached out to express their condolences and offer comfort. The outpouring of love is a testament to how deeply Link and his family are loved.
