Polly was born August 21, 1921 in Forney, Texas to Newt and Pauline Ferry Pinson. She graduated from North Texas State in 1941 and then worked in Washington D.C. during World War II. In 1947, she married Jim Lovett and in 1950 they moved to Fort Worth, becoming life-long residents of the East Side. Polly taught high school English for many years, retiring from Eastern Hills High School as head of the English Department. She loved to read and travel, especially in England and she loved her church, Arlington Presbyterian Church. Her boundless energy, curiosity and keen sense of humor were shared with a wide circle of friends.
She was preceded in death by her husband; parents; sister, Celestine Baker; her brother Jerry Pinson; and nephew Dick Baker.
Survivors include her daughter Lynn Lovett, niece Lisa Baker and husband Troy Abell; nephews David Baker and Monty Pinson; sister-in-law Billie Howsman; three grand-nephews and her faithful companion, Lucky Lovett. Special thanks to Wilma, Paula, Ariel and many others who cared for her over the past six years.
In lieu of flowers, the family suggests a contribution to Arlington Presbyterian Church or the charity of your choice.
