In addition to her parents, she was preceded in death by her husband, Robert Marshall Lawrence Jr.; her sisters, Altha Davis, Mary Ellen Reynolds and Michelle Glover; and her brothers, Robert W. Glover, Alonza R. Glover and Cleveland W. Glover She attended school in Charlottesville, Mary Washington College and the Jefferson School of Commerce. She was also a longtime member of Grace Episcopal Church. Polly owned Suzy’s House of Gifts and worked at A Corner of Lexington for many years. She loved flowers and was a member of the Town and Country Garden Club. She was also somewhat of a Hoos fan. Polly was quite the shopper and enjoyed showering family and friends with the treasures she would find.
