Sarah Feinmann recalls her niece

This picture pops up each year of Polly from 8 years ago. It always reminds me of her warmth, humour and generosity, making a connection across a crowded room.

he thing that Polly and I shared was our love of art and particularly John Piper who had a strong association with St Davids where Rhys is from. I remember seeing that there was a huge retrospective of John Pipers work at the Towner Gallery in Eastbourne which I was desperate to see. I had arranged to go with Jane and then Polly and the girls joined us. It was all a bit fraught on the journey on crowded tubes and trains on a boiling hot day with Rosie in her pushchair. We had a wonderful day, the exhibition more than living up to expectations and fabulous to share the wonderful collages and stained glass that she hadn’t seen before.
