Isabell, lovingly known to her family as "Ma-Maw", was a wonderful and devoted wife, mother, sister, and grandmother. Her greatest joy in life was caring for her family. She never forgot a birthday. As long as her health allowed, Isabell tended her yard and garden and baked many kinds of cakes for her family and friends. Her influence has been engraved on all our hearts and she will be forever loved and remembered. Memorials may be made to Howell Baptist Church, 3800 Baptist Lane Concord, NC 28025.
