My Mom was Isabel's roommate in Franklin Rehab. She always would reach for my hand when I came into the dining room or in the hallway. I would talk to her, she would smile back and ask where are we going ? She was such a beautiful lady. I will miss seeing her, so sorry for your loss.

Isabel was my Mom's roommate in Franklin. She would always smile and reach for my hand each time I came into the dining room or met her in the hallway. She would have me give her a little push down the hall and just beam. I will miss seeing her there. She was such a pleasure and a beautiful women. So sorry for your loss.
