When I think of you, I think of the nicest, caring, and patient person I have ever known. On top of that, you happen to be my mom. I have already won the lottery in my mind. I will miss so many things about you, mostly your weekly phone calls while I was traveling and our Sunday conversations before dinner. I am a better person because of you. In the end, I am honored to be your son. What a wonderful life you have had and have provided for everyone in this family. You have provided an everlasting legacy. Rest in peace.
Love you,
Jeff

I don’t know if there are enough words to describe someone who was always there for me. All of the phone calls, dinners, bday gifts and cards, and opening up your home for me to spend the night. Moving to Florida was made much easier knowing I had family so close. Your kindness, compassion, and selflessness will always be appreciated. I know what I will miss most is our after dinner conversations while enjoying coffee and dessert. Thank you Aunt Polly for simply being you- an amazing person whose wonderful qualities are reflected in all of your family. My Uncle Paul, my cousins Lisa, Jeff, Ashley, Paul and Willow. I love you and will always miss you ❤️
As the youngest of our cousin generation I was always made to feel special by Aunt Polly, and I can't remember your ever being anything other than kind, to anyone. Aunt Polly sent me cards for every birthday I think for the past 25 years? and various cards to my kids and wife the last 10. I am a bit saddened that she never had a chance to meet my kids in person, but am thankful that my wife Dana did get to spend a few weekends with her and experience her essence. There are not many people like my Aunt Polly, just kindness to the core, I always felt so special and loved in her presence, even with years gone by between visits. RIP and love to Uncle Paul, Lisa, Jeff and all the kids and family back there, Love Tom
Love,
Ash
