My mother (now98) and Isabel were friends when they both lived on Haskins place. We will miss her friendship, especially our lunches at IHOP.
Many prayers for the Michaels family, from the Brutons.

My husband & I shared an apartment with Isabel & her husband in Florida during the war. We remained friends & I would visit her in Silver Spring when I went to visit my daughter, Jill, who also lives in Silver Spring. I always treasured our friendship. I send my love, sympathy and prayers to the family.

Isabel was always a pleasure to speak with. I will miss our conversations very much.

My thoughts and prayers are with her, and all who had the pleasure of knowing her.

Isabel and my mother Frances Dougherty (now 96 years old) were best friends in the 1950s, and remained in touch over the years. I remember "Mrs. Michaels" with fondness - she was a fun neighborhood mom. I will keep her and her family in my prayers.

So sorry to hear of Isabel's passing. She was so sweet, considerate and passionate of others. I'll fondly remember vacations, especially at the lakes, and her signature laugh.
Love to all,
Marilyn
