Dear "Kiz" and Frank and family,
I am so sorry for the loss of your Mom (my Aunt Polly). She was a great lady and will be missed. Now she is with Uncle Earl, Granny and Pop and they are watching over you and the whole family. My thoughts are with all of you.

Carolyn & Family,
I have many fond memories of times spent with your mom & dad while growing up. The coolest thing when I was young was they had a pool and we seemed to make frequent visits during the summer. There are many, many more memories of times together with your parents and mine that I reflect on at this time.

Dearest Carolyn, How very sad we are for your loss. We loved your Mom and Dad and will never have neighbors as wonderful as they were. What special "neighbor grandparents" they were to our kids. Anyone who ever got to know your Mom and Dad were truly blessed. Thinking of you...Mary and Dan Johnson, Brita, Danny and Becky

I am very sorry for your loss, Polly was a wonderful lady. I will really miss her sense of humor, her smile and he winks when you say good bye for the day. I will miss her coming to my office wondering what she can help me out w/ or asking if I will join her and talk in the livingroom or in the sun on the porch.
God bless you and your family, Polly will always be in my thoughs.

Carolyn --

I'd never met your mom, but after seeing her picture in the paper it was no surprise that she was a lovely woman...her loveliness radiates from the inside.

I have a few of her beautiful watercolor cards, and her talent with paints was truly remarkable.

I know you must have a treasure-trove of wonderful memories to help you through this difficult time.

Love and prayers,

Rosemary

I am so sorry for your loss. Polly and Earl were wonderful members of St. Paul's Episcopal Church and I always enjoyed talking with them. Polly was such a lovely woman. Your family is in my prayers.
God bless.
