Polly was a strong humorous woman who loved spending time with her family. Hosting Boxing Day was always a highlight of hers. Polly took great pleasure in her flowerbeds and loved when someone stopped by to visit. We always looked forward to her wave from the window when we left.
The family greatly appreciates the care, compassion and support provided by Hospice Wellington.
