"What a tremendous loss to the Las Vegas community and to her family. I pray her daughters have the support needed to make it through this time.

We moved here last year and have watched Polly ever since.

We enjoyed her professionalism and sophistication. She added something to Channel 8 and the community that can never be replaced.

Please extend our heartfelt condolences to her family and friends at Channel 8."

"My heart goes out to Polly's family and friends. Her loss will be felt in my home. I have lived in the Las Vegas Valley for almost 15 years and have always watched Channel 8. I will miss seeing her face in the afternoon."

Much Love,

"My husband and myself will miss Polly ... she was so refreshing and a wonderful personality. How shocking ... we are with Channel 8 at this time..."

Sincerely,

"I am very saddened to hear of the death of Polly Gonzalez. I grew up in the Monterey Bay Area of California and I remember her on the news there. I was quite surprised when I moved to Henderson and recognized her on the news here. I felt like I knew someone here from home. My deepest condolences to her family."

Lisa Mitchell

Formerly of Watsonville, Calif.

"I have been a Henderson resident since the first year Polly started at KLAS. I watched Polly grow as a local on-air personality, develop as a professional news person and as a respected member of our community. I will miss her smiling face and solid reporting and share with you and her family in your more personal loss."

Respectfully, Sherri O'Boyle
