A Claremore native, Polly was born on Jan. 7, 1943, to Ray and Velma (Ferrel) Moore. She graduated from Claremore High School with the Class of 1961 and after a brief marriage and the births of two beautiful daughters, Polly found herself a single mother. She worked at Utica National Bank in Tulsa and then Fourth National. She later was employed by Dan P. Holmes Agency. She began trimming houses and later co-owned a cabinet shop. During the housing crunch of the 1980’s Polly went to work for American Airlines in payroll. She earned aircraft mechanic’s A&P certification and continued at American in that capacity until her retirement in 2005. She was a long-time member of the Transport Workers Union, Local 514.

Shortly before her retirement, Polly and her siblings purchased property north of Salina and each built a home there. Polly was able to enjoy her rural home for a year prior to her passing. She loved fishing, gardening and mowing in addition to the woodworking she did so well.

Polly is survived by her beloved family.
