For those of us who worked with him, judge Poland's memory lives on! We think of him often and with much affection.

A big and heartfelt thank you to everyone who has written messages about my father. It is bringing joy to my otherwise sad heart at this difficult time. I feel blessed and honored that "Judge Poland" was my father and that I got to be one of his daughters. Thank you all for being a blessing to him. He always spoke so highly of everyone he had the opportunity to work with at the SSA. He truly admired and respected you all.

i had the priviledge of serving as court interpreter for judge Poland during his entire career w/ ssa. on countless occasions, after hearings were over, we had the opportunity to chat. i always felt honored to have the chance to hear the thoughts and opinions of such a learned man with such a brilliant mind. not only that, he was as much a charming and lovely person as he was itelligent.

Unfortunately I never had the opportunity to meet your father, Sarah, however, after listening to you and your mom talk about him, I knew what a wonderful man he was and to so many people. He will be missed by many but never forgotten. Big hugs to you, your mom and your sisters. We are thinking of you in Singapore.

I never had the opportunity to meet your father Sarah. You spoke so highly of him and I know how much he meant to you. Treasure those memories and know his spirit is alive in you.

May your hearts soon be filled with wonderful memories of joyful times together as you celebrate a life well lived.

He will be missed by many.

Always a Twinkle in His Eyes
