Anderina Pollock Obituary

POLLOCK, Anderina (Andi), (Twells) Anderina "Andi" Pollock was born in Springburn, Scotland on May 12, 1939 to James and Flora Pollock (Rollo), and went to school in Bishopbriggs, Scotland. Andi arrived in America in 1957 and married Tom Twells in 1960 in San Francisco they had two sons Harry and Gordon, and then divorced in 1982. Andi has lived in Rincon Valley since 1976. Andi worked for Crocker Bank until 1978, then at Michelle's Restaurant and at The Tides. From 1990 till 2001 she was the Hospitality Coordinator at Benziger Winery in Glen Ellen then retired. Andi worked part-time for Hans Fahden Winery as a wedding coordinator through 2009. Andi was known for having a place for everything and a good sense of humor she enjoyed traveling to warm places with her friends, frequent trips to Bodega Bay and shopping in Montgomery Village. In 1997 Andi began AA for the final time and it was the support and love of so many in the program that allowed her to live a full and complete life one day at a time. Ultimately it was her faith in Jesus and His Grace that allowed her the strength to face each day with the class and dignity she displayed in every aspect of her journey. Andi passed away in her home Thursday morning November 11, 2010 at 11:11 a.m. with her two sons Harry and Gordon by her side. A public memorial service for Andi will be held Thursday November 18, 2010 at 11:30 a.m. at Santa Rosa Memorial Park Chapel. As was Andi's wish she will be cremated with her ashes scattered by her boys at a later date. SANTA ROSA MORTUARY EGGEN & LANCE CHAPEL, 545-3747

Andi's generosity, grace, good taste and zest for living has made an impact on my life that I will carry forever. My admiration also extends to Gordon and Harry who provided Andi with an orderly, serene atmosphere in which to spend her last days.

Andi will be greatly missed by all who knew her.
We will always have fond memories of the many happy and fun times spent with her. Warmest regards to Harry and Gordon.
Cheers
