Condolence From: Marianne Dynes
Condolence: Kris and family,

I remember ..... meeting your Mum for the first time at Sapulpa Bowling Alley when we first brought our team there.

I remember ..... coming in every Wednesday and your Mum was either behind the desk or flitting around somewhere, getting things organized or ready to bowl.

I remember ..... Me Coming in with my jewelry and your Mum looking and oohing and aahhing and eventually buying a couple of things from me.

I remember ..... Your Mum at the yearly bowling meetings before each season started ..... she would be there trying to keep LAW AND ORDER ...... Bless her for that.

I learned of you Mum's passing in July from a former bowler, and I pass along my thoughts and prayers with you and your sister and family at this time.

Condolence: Even though we knew Polly a short time, sitting in front of her and April made Shock games even more fun. She was a delightful person and we will certainly miss her!

Condolence: Polly was a great friend. We spent a lot of time at different bowling lanes. Las Vegas and Laughlin was always fun. My wife and Polly are both together with God now. We all thank you Polly for all the great times that we had. May God bless your family and friends. Death is never easy to understand.

Condolence: Such a sweet, sweet lady. I know you will miss her terribly, but know that she is now at Peace and feeling wonderful and is back to her awesome self. I always looked up to her, loved working with her at Sahoma Lanes. Praying for God's Perfect Peace to surround April and Chris. I'm pretty sure she is sniffing Lonny right now. (Our inside joke). I love you all like crazy.
