Polly, I have no words to express my love and respect for you. You blessed my life and I will always cherish our time together, on and off the stage. You made the Guinness World Book for oldest person to debut with a symphony orchestra, and now you are listed in God's Book of singing angels. Thank you for sharing your life and your talent with me. I love you.
