Bessie and Ronnie,
My thoughts and prayers are with you. Isabell was a woman of virtue. She did a blessed job in raising great children as yourselves. She brought alot of love, value, and respect into your hearts and souls. You are blessed to have a mother such as her. She is so happy right now. She wants you to be happy and take care of yourselves and continue the values she bestowed upon you. God's comfort is a perfect remedy. If you need anything, don't hesitate to call. God Bless!!!

Bessie, Ronnie, and through family - Celia,
I first met Isabell when she was taking care of Julia Garst. I think I only met you, Bessie twice, and Ronnie once. Celia, I taught you at Barrett Day Care Center years ago when you were four. I've seen and heard only wonderful things from and about you all. A wonderful giving woman full of kindness and encouragement has left her mark on many. I'm glad I got to know her. Bill Copeland would tell good stories of his friendship with you, Ronnie, when I worked at The Covenant School. Now, he's my preacher! There's so little to say that can ever compare to the beautiful person your mom was. Nothing will fill that gap completely. I pray God's comfort will be very real to you all during this time.
With my prayers,
Brenda Rhodes

Bessie, I am so sad at the passing of your Mom. She made such an impact on my life because she loved the Lord so much. I pray the Lord will give you the Peace that only He can give during this time of the loss of your precious mother. Be assured your mother is with our Loving Saviour and enjoying the blessings of her heavenly home. John 14:1-4. If I can help you in any way, please let me know.
