Dear Sister Marie,
You made my life and many others lighter at work at Mercy General. Your great sense of humor was much appreciated and your kindness too. You made an impact on many lives including the school kids who filtered through.

I remember our times together at Mercy General Hospital. Sister Marie would sit at a card table in the E.R. and greet patients and their loved ones. We shared such good conversation at lunch in the cafeteria and we always looked forward to seeing each other. She was a wonderful Sister of Mercy!

You will be sadly missed, Polly. We have wonderful memories of all your visits home with your infectious laugh!

I treasure all of those years of our friendship, especially the hospital ministry years.
