Polly, born May 10, 1937, was a daughter of the late Robert Floyd Lawson and Lola Brooks Lawson. She was proud to have been born and raised in Buffalo, SC. She attended Buffalo Baptist Church for almost thirty years. It was during those years that she accepted Jesus as her Savior, sang alto in the choir, and learned to play the piano. For the rest of her life, she honored God with her talents. Polly met her future husband, Wayne, at Union High School when they were only fifteen. One month after high school graduation, in June of 1955, they married. Polly and Wayne made their home in Union, where they raised their children and spoiled their grandchildren. Polly spent her life serving the Lord. She ministered as a Sunday school teacher, Training Union teacher, Bible school worker, church pianist, and most recently, as a choir member at Fairview Baptist Church. Polly loved singing gospel music with her family and friends, and “Pretty Polly” could be heard every Sunday morning on WBCU for many years.
