Mary S. "Polly" (Hopkins) Pike, of Lincoln, MA, passed away on November 11, 2023, at the age of 90. The cause of death was complications from a fractured leg. Her husband of over 65 years, John, with whom she shared a mutual devotion, predeceased her by four months.

A graduate of Wheaton College, Polly was a lover of music, particularly singing harmony with her sisters, and travel; a natural and eclectic cook; and an independent spirit. With a passion for amateur photography, she derived endless pleasure from taking and selecting pictures to feature in her home and as gifts and she took great pride in showing off her pictures in photo competitions in various fairs in Vermont. Among her many subjects, her favorites were undoubtedly her grandchildren.

In addition to John, she was predeceased by a sister and a brother; she leaves her younger sister Peg, five children, ten grandchildren, and many in-laws, nieces and nephews, and good friends. Those who knew her will remember her as loving and generous, always eager to help a family member, friend, or good cause; and as feisty and tenacious, always willing to offer her frank assessments in any situation. She was both, until the very end.

The family will hold a private service at a later date.

Arrangements are entrusted to Dee Funeral Home & Cremation Service of Concord.
