Pollock, Mary Lee, had her homecoming with the Lord on March 19, 2011 after a life blessed with service to Him. 

She was born Mary Lee Tope on November 1, 1923 to Harry and Mabel Tope in Lilbourn, Missouri.  She came to faith in Christ at an early age, and lived her life seeking to bring glory to her Savior, being a blessing to her family and friends and searching the Scriptures daily for His truth.  She was a schoolteacher, homemaker and Bible teacher.  As she began her career in education, she met the love of her life, Ray Allan Pollock, who was serving in the Navy at the time.  They were married on August 4, 1945.

When her husband answered God's call to the ministry, Mary became a devoted minister's wife and served alongside Allan, dedicating herself to the people the Lord placed in her life.  Her passion for God's Word led her to become a Bible teacher, a role she continued all her life.  She was also a homemaker in every sense of the word, creating “celebrations” for even trivial events in order to cook big meals and bountiful desserts for her family and friends.

Having majored in drama in college, she had an enjoyment for memorizing poetry, often quoting long passages in conversations with people.  She was an avid reader, loved flowers and gardening and was always ready for a game of “forty-two”.

Mary had three sisters and one brother:  Emma Katherine Hager, deceased, Delores Maddux and husband, A.D. Maddux of Evansville, Indiana; Harriet Ann Woods, Jefferson City, Missouri; Charles Tope and wife LaVerne Tope of San Antonio, Texas.

Mary is survived by her husband, Allan Pollock of the home; son Dave Pollock and wife Jan; daughter Luana Ehrlich and husband James; daughter Lynn Awerbuch and husband Ilan; daughter Lenora Rand and husband Gary.  She adored her grandchildren, Karis Barnett, Chris and Chad Pollock, Zoe and Hannah Rand, and her precious great grandchildren, Justin and Jake Barnett and Sydney and Emily Pollock and a number of wonderful nieces, nephews and cousins.

Her leaving this earth for her heavenly home creates a hole in the lives of each of us that will never be filled this side of heaven.  Her desire is that you would come to join her in worshiping the Lord Jesus Christ by placing your faith solely in the death of God's Son who gave Himself that all who believe would spend their eternity with Him. 

Memorials may be made to the Bethel Baptist Church Building Fund, 1717 W. Lindsey St., Norman, OK 73069 or to Mission Norman, 2525 E. Lindsey St., Norman, OK 73071.

Funeral services will be held 10:00 A.M., Monday, March 21, 2011 at Bethel Baptist Church with interment following in Sunset Memorial Park under the direction of Havenbrook Funeral Home.
