Mar 14, 2005 – Dec 29, 2023
Our beautiful daughter, Isabella Margeurite Garrett sadly passed away on December 29, 2023. Bella was born on March 14, 2005, in Murfreesboro, TN and graduated from Siegel High School, summer class of 2022. She and her sister, Elizabeth, shared a very special bond. They were silly and happy when together and had fun playing with their dog, Charlie. Most recently, Bella loved her cat, Dove, as well.
In her early years, Bella attended Third Baptist Church where she gave herself to the Lord and followed in her mother Michelle’s footsteps as a dedicated Bible Driller. There, she also loved working with children and serving in VBS and other related church activities. She was always kind and loving to all but particularly senior adults.
Bella liked working and one of her favorite employments was in the nursing home field where she loved and grew very close to those she cared for and consequently aspired to pursue healthcare education and a career caring for others.
Bella was a sweet and considerate girl. She had close relationships with her grandmothers, Charla (Mamaw) and Patricia (Nana), that carried on throughout her short life.
Bella left behind loving mother, Michelle Lynn Dixon and stepfather Lane; father Matthew Allen Garrett; sister Elizabeth; great grandmother, Dorothy Ross; and many grandparents, cousins, aunts, uncles, and friends who will miss her very much.
Visitation will be held at Woodfin Memorial Chapel in Murfreesboro, Tennessee on Thursday, January 4, 2024 from 3:00-7:00 PM. The funeral service will also be at Woodfin Memorial Chapel on Friday, January 5, 2024 at 11:00 AM. Burial will follow at Roselawn Memorial Gardens.

I will always remember Bella as the sweetest preschooler. Having her in my class when she was almost two and again in pre-k was such a pleasure. She was so kind to everyone in her group and always very loving to me. Everyday at rest time when in the one year old class, I played lullaby music.”I can only imagine”, by Mercy Me. One day, I changed to another lullaby. Bella jumped up and ran to the door saying.”I don’t like that music”, as she covered her ears. I quickly changed it back to what...

I met Izzy in October of last year and just that few weeks with her were some that I will always remember. She was such a bubbly spirit and a shining light ❤ gone way too soon but she still left a legacy behind

I remember working with Bella during Vacation Bible School. She was so joyful while she worked on the various crafts we did. She was kind. I remember her always willing to help others in her group. I asked her name and she said, "Oh, I'm Bella. You know my nana, Patricia don't you?" I could see she had a heart for people in general.
