Polly and I met working at St Mary's in Rochester. We are the same age and share alot of the same interests. We became so close we were like sisters. I will always call you my sister, Polly, and I'll see you in Heaven so we can continue our Party!

Polly started working at Mayo when I was waiting for my first child. Even though Mykal's 3rd b-day was after my due date she knew that is when Amelia would come. We have been close friends ever since. Through her I have found Brooke another close friend. You will always be with me in my heart. I love you and will miss you so very much.

I can never thank Polly enough for the great job she did of raising my son when I couldn't be there. She was a wonderful, kind woman and I had a lot of respect for her. She will be missed.

Polly and I sat next to each other in our homeroom at Hempstead High School. I spent many wonderful evenings in her company, and the company of her family. She was my bridesmaid and one of my closest childhood friends. Polly was kind and giving with an open heart. I can see I am one of many she touched in her life. I am blessed she was part of mine.

I thank you all for the prayers and love that you have given our family. My mom touched a lot of people and I know she will always be with you all. As my mom requested for her service she does not want people wearing black. She was a bright person and would like everyone to wear bright colors..... Thank you all so very much for sharing your memories with us.

I met Polly when she started at Mayo. I was her preceptor and I remember how impressed I was with her. Not just her skills as a therapist but as an outgoing, kind hearted, loving person. I feel very proud and priviledged to have known Polly! She will be missed so much and by so many.

I can't believe someone so young and giving could be taken away from us. I was friends with Brooke and remember being over at the house while Polly was still going to nursing school. I remember one night we were celebrating because Polly got an "A" on her paper. My thoughts and prayers are with the family.

Polly was a remarkable person. I recently met her while she lived across the street from me with Brooke. She came home to be with her family in her last days. She will be missed by all. May she rest in peace and no longer be in any pain. RIP

My thoughts are with all of you. Polly was a wonderful kind person her whole life. She was my sister's best friend in her youth. It's a shame her life was cut short. But now she will be your Angel above in heaven along with her sister, brother and dad.

I worked with Polly at St. Luke's and she became one of my closest friends. I can't begin to say what a wonderful person she was. Through Polly, I met her family and love them as my own and have the honor of being her granddaughter's godmother. She is the bravest person I know to battle what she did. She loved her family so much. Polly, I love you and you will always be in my heart.

I was Polly's supervisor and co-worker at the Mayo Clinic. I was always impressed by how upbeat and positive Polly was. Everyone enjoyed working with Polly. She loved taking care of patients (especially the babies). We will miss her.

Thank you for all of you're kind words and happy memories. Mom had recently told me "I may not be wealthy but my friends and family make me feel rich" and I can see why. She will be missed but we will always feel the warmth of her love and that can never be taken. All of this happened so fast. A small piece of advice tell you're mom you loved ones you love them every chance you get because tomorrow you may not be able to.
