Not sure what to say?

Polly was a beautiful woman full of intelligence and wisdom. Her teaching ability was a gift that made the world a better place. So many lives were touched and enriched by her. She will be missed but has left a great legacy.

Polly taught all three of our daughters. She was everything a second grade teacher should be -- smart, consistent, and kind. She always started the school day with Sustained Silent Reading -- something we should all do still. Truly, she was a wonderful teacher. To her family: I'm so sorry for your loss.

A woman of amazing stature and engaging strength was yours to lovingly honor. Polly was true to herself and those she uncompromisingly loved. Fiercely protective and a cut from a pattern not readily found. Proverbs 31:31.

There are no words that can ease the pain of losing someones beloved. May you find comfort and peace in knowing that your loved one is in God's memory because those who passed are precious in his eyes. Psalms 116:5. You and your family have my deepest condolences.

To the Potter family, we offer our heartfelt condolences on your loss. As you take each day one step at a time and hold on to the loving memories of your loved one, may God grant you strength to see each day through (2 Corinthians 4:7).--ERJ

I am so sad to hear about the passing of Polly. I loved teaching with her and just knowing her. We always had fun joking around, similar senses of humor. I know your whole family will miss her so much!

Mrs. Potter was a great person and an exceptional teacher. I remember her fondly from Lowell elementary where she enriched the lives of many of her students, myself included. My deepest condolences for your family's loss.

We are so sorry to hear about the passing of your lifelong sweetheart. May all the lovely memories you have of your wife, helpmate and friend help to ease your grief and bring you comfort. As we remember God's promises, we find rest in His faithfulness.
