Polly was known as the nurse of the family. She was incredibly emphathetic and had the most beautiful smile. She was so special that our Lord decided he wanted her with him before her family was ready to let her go. She was so kind and enjoyed taking care of her family members and friends when they were in ill or in need of her nursing knowledge. She was an avid crafter who took special interest in latch-hook rugs and needlepoint. She enjoyed riding her tandem bike with her husband George, swimming at the Y, boating, and lake fishing.
