Not sure what to say?





An incredibly lovely voice! Once told me that I had exquisite manners. Will always remember her very kind compliment. Was blessed to know her via Eastside New Neighbors club for years. Singing with the angels now!

Hard to believe that Isabella passed away 6 yrs ago, now recently followed by her beloved husband Ken. She will undoubtedly be singing a welcoming song to him as he arrives by her side again!

Kenny, Alan, Liz, and Katy, sorry to hear about your mom. I remember you all when your family lived in Dickinson, TX., and your mom was always kind to everyone.

I just heard that Isabella is gone. I loved her dearly and will always remember the sweet sound of her singing "His Eye Is On The Sparrow" at my beloved Father-in-Law, Ralph Schreiner's memorial. She was a beautiful happy woman and will truly be missed by the Schreiner Family.

So sad to hear of the passing of Isabel; such a wonderful person and a friend of more than 50 years, since we all lived on the road to Melvern Square, N.S. Always treasured our exchanges at Christmas. My heart goes out to Ken and their large family.

It has been nearly thirty years now since we lived close enough to spend time with Ken and Isabel, but we still count you among our dearest friends. How we cherish the memories of the hours we spent with you! Isabel, your deep love for your beautiful family was so evident. You also kept Ken in line, no easy job! You had a great laugh, a curious, bright mind and you loved conversing with and being around friends. You were a truly special person whom God gave us to know and enjoy, and you will be deeply missed. We need God to send us more Isabel's.
