Betty was born to Pearl (nee Ball) and Alvin Farrow on November 10, 1939 in New Liskeard, Ontario. She married Wolfgang Polenz in May 1959, living the majority of her life in the Temiskaming area.
She loved living beside Lake Temiskaming, just watching the water flow by. She was passionate about all her many hobbies and crafts such as drawing, painting, spinning wool, gemology, dollmaking and playing her beloved dulcimer. Amateur herbalist, “rock hound” and genealogy enthusiast, she took great enjoyment in reading and researching all her interests.
Some of her happiest times were spent with children, grandchildren and family, just sharing stories of the past as well as with her beloved cat, Miss Muffin.
A heart felt thanks goes out to her personal caregivers for the wonderful care and comfort given to her over the years.
To our friends and family, we wish to thank you for the expressions of love and support; it is so precious to us at this time, and we will remain eternally grateful.
