Celebrating Our Resident of the Month

Polly was born and raised in Webster County, where she grew up as the middle child alongside one brother and one sister. She met her husband, Sam, at church, and the two
built a life together after marrying and welcoming two daughters. Sam worked for Western Electric, a career that led the family to move frequently and experience life in several places, including a memorable time stationed on Kwajalein Island.

Throughout her career, Polly worked at the bank, where she wore many hats and became known for her dedication and versatility. She also pursued her entrepreneurial spirit by owning her own boutique. Eventually, the family settled in Starkville, which they proudly call home. In her free time, Polly enjoys antiquing, shopping, decorating, and baking—especially her favorite treat, lemon icebox pie.
