Mike, I was pivileged to have had the opportunity to know and live with you from November 1, 2002 through February 22, 2004. You gave me a companionship I had been seeking all my life for and much joy, although there were hard times. It was a joy to be needed by you and to take care of you. Thank you for introducing me to all your MSWatch.com friends, whom I'm still in touch with. Thank you for all you did for me, including always filling up my tank with gas. Shopping for groceries and doing laundry was fun for the first time in my life, because it was with you. I shared my life with you. You will forever be in my heart, and I will love you forever. ALWAYS, MIKE. ALWAYS. You asked me to never leave you, and I won't; I promise.

You have an amazing family and I wish you all my prayers at this difficult time.

Mike and I lockered next to each other at Miege (I - J). We often had a running topic to tease each other with.
Mike was a quality guy with a sincere heart. Bless all of you in your loss.

To the Isbell family,
Mike and I attended Miege together and although we were not close friends he always treated my with kindness and respect. I had not seen Mike in years but he was the type of person you never forget and we never will. God bless you Mike. My thoughts and prayers are with the Isbell family and friends.

Mike was always after Mary Warden and I to have that St. Anns reunion that we promised we would have! I feel so bad it never happened...but now...he is having his own reunion in Heaven, not only with his Dad, but also with Liz Wilson, Jim Schwartz, and Jim Carr...
God Bless Mike Isbell

My prayers have been with the family often during these very trying weeks. May everyone find some peace in the knowledge that, while we can't know or understand God's plan, that we must simply have faith in Him. All my hugs to the family, but most particularly to Ramona, Jimi, Matt and Tony. I'm thinking of you often.
