with Alzheimer’s. She was 89 years old.
She was born July 10, 1932, in Peggs, OK to John Lee Sisco and Esther Rice Sisco. Polly spent her childhood in Ponca City, OK until she moved with her family to Sulphur, LA as a teenager. She graduated from Sulphur High School. Polly met Robert “Bob” Olson, Sr. and they were married on August 20, 1954. They made their home in Sulphur. She worked at Olin Mathieson Chemical and Maplewood Baptist Church as a secretary for several years and was active in community theatre.
