Condolences
Dear Mrs. Polon & family, Mr. Polon was a great man...what more is there to say? I was a client of his for more than 5 years. From the very first day I met him he treated me very kindly, listened incredibly well, displayed a great sense of humor and had all the answers! I noticed quickly, how much he was respected and admired by his colleagues. He was always being stopped in the halls to answer someones question, or confirm their thoughts on a matter. He knew everyones name and everyone knew him. We got to know each other over the years, he always asked about my family, always remembered my birthday and loved, loved, loved to share stories about his family. He was always telling me about someone coming to visit or someone who just left from visiting or who was pregnant now :) He always had a smile on his face, a warm greeting, pleasant conversation and a kind good-bye. When I last saw him, we were leaving court. He went down the ramp & I headed down the stairs. We were going in the same direction but on different paths. As he got just parallel to me he looked across & shouted "RACE YA"! He sped off on his scooter with a big smile on his face and laughing out loud. I looked over to him, laughed and waived good-bye. I will miss him dearly...he was a great man. with deepest sympathy, alexis
Please accept my condolences on behalf of the Monmouth Bar Association. Mr. Polan was a fixture at the courthouse, especially on Friday morning and landlord tenant court. Despite his hardships he was an able litigator. He was always courteous and had a smile for his friends (and opponents). I would exchange pleasantries with Mr. Polan when I saw him and enjoyed our conversations. I apologize for missing the services today but my schedule would not permit it. I will try to attend tomorrow mornings services but will be in court on a Friday morning and will miss Jim at his usual table in the basement in the west wing. He was a good lawyer and a good man and will be missed by his colleagues.

Jim Polon was such a good man and was an inspiration to me. We met in court and he would always talk with great pride about his whole family. He especially loved his visits with his grand children. If there is anything you need, please let me know. I am unable to be there, because my father just had a stroke last night, but my thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.
To the family of Mr. Polon: I am truly sorry to hear about your loss, and wanted to offer my deepest condolences to your family, but also I wanted to offer a promise that has been offer to your family at Revelation chapter twenty one verses three and four. When you get a chance please read it. And may the God of all comfort be with your family at this time. My Deepest Condolences JoAnne
Aunt Joy and Family To a truly great Uncle, pool parties during the summer will never be the same without Uncle Jim. My deepest sympathy to the entire family. Love Ricky, Marianne, Ricky and Matthew
To Joy and Family, I have "battled" with Jim for my entire legal career. Although we represented opposing sides, Jim was the most professional, well-prepared, and courteous to me and members of my firm. Never to use dirty tricks (as seen on TV), Jim was the model lawyer as envisioned by the Commission on Professionalism in the Law. My fellow lawyers are sure to join in these sentiments. I will always enjoy the lunches after our "battles." Jim was one of the few reasons for me to attend the monthly Bar Association dinners. Some of these meetings were dull. If someone wanted to sit at a lively table without talking shop, Jim's table was the place to sit. One last "war story" -- I always chuckled when I sometimes heard sloshing of water during my telephone conversations. Jim would often talk using a cordless phone from his pool!
Summers will never be the same. The house will seem empty without him. Love, Michaela
Summers will never be the same. It's gonna be hard walking through that door and not seeing him roll up and greet us with "hello my little honeys". I'll never forget all the times we watched game shows as we ate dinner. I can't help but wonder what we're gonna do now when something breaks. It's hard to admit now that all we have left are the pictures and the memories. Love, Megan
What a great dad and friend. You were always there for me. Near or far, I could always count on you for support and your opinion (always honest!) I am SO glad I made the trip back at Christmas and was able to spend time with you. You will always hold a special place in my heart. My favorite memory is sitting around the kitchen table and you rolling in on your scooter and announcing yourself. . . "hello, my little honey's!" Love, Jill
Grandpop was a smart person. And while he was smart, he was a nice man. He was a fun man because he let me ride up and down on his stair climber. And, when I was young, he let me ride on his scooter. I will miss seeing him in the summer. Love, Tommy
