Isabel Ann MacDonald

My condolences to Isabel's family. Isabel was my neighbor on Remington Court. She was a wonderful person, kind, thoughtful, funny, helpful, intelligent, generous, and a good friend. If more people were like her, this world would be a better place. May she rest in peace.

It is with profound regret that I learned of Isabel's passing. I was away and could not attend the funeral.
Isabel was a true mentor to me during my time in the "downtown" office, always ready to listen and always thinking of the "kids" first. She leaves behind a rich legacy.
She will be missed!

I have fond memories of the year Issie and I spent together in Truro and all the visits across Beech St. to share so many laughs and happy times at The MacDonalds .She was one of a kind and will be missed .

Don and Leona, John and Pat. We are very sorry to hear of Isabel's passing. Condolences from the Boone family.

I remember Isabel driving my boyfriend at the time Allan Cameron and I back to Halifax many times to university and the conversations were always very interesting ! My condolences to her family .

Donnie & family ...so very sorry to hear of your sisters passing.

Aussie & Family,
So sorry to hear of her passing. I remember as a little girl, when she would be home, she was always so pretty & nice to us kids in the neighbourhood. That was a few years ago!
My deepest sympathy to you all.
Sincerely,
Kathy Lumsden

Isabel was an amazing woman: a wonderful friend to my mother,and I knew her from my earliest memory. She was so independent, ahead of her time, and still such a caring person to all! She is someone that we all wanted to grow up to be. She will be sorely missed by all who knew her!

May she rest in peace ; Pat & Hugh McKay .

I am very saddened to hear of Isabel's death. She seemed to always to be there when I was a youth. I had the good fortune to have her teach me in Grade 4. She would send me to the Wheel for an egg salad sandwich ten minutes before dismissal.
Joe A and I took the train to NG to visit Margaret. Guess who was home and she spoiled both of us. We walked to Trenton Road but we drove to the train station.
I always enjoyed visiting with her in Halifax. Mamie and Aus would stay with her, especially on LeMerchand St. Mamie and Isabel would be on the deck smoking and enjoy time tegether. Lots of memories - all pleasant.
I always considered the NG MacDonalds as my adopted family. For some reason, each of you left memories in my head when I stayed with you. We will remember Isabel's hospitality and friendship. Take care of each other during this unfortunate time. I hope to see you on Monday.
God bless.

Dear John & Pat & family, So sorry for your loss but she's in a better place and no longer suffering. Even though you'll miss her, God knows best and has called her home. Love, Dianna & Don

Good friends for almost 50 years! LeMarchant Towers,major work teachers, school board for 24 years and close ties to Antigonish and Pictou County. A confidant. Sic transit gloria!

Thank you Isabel for your kindness, thoughtfulness, guidance and good humor over the years. I know I am amoung the many who came through the ranks at the Halifax District School Board who owe much of their success to your mentoring and support.
I will always remember you in my prayers.

Isabel was my first cousin and she always took an interest in my education and well-being. When I got my first teaching job in Halifax she had me stay in her apartment until I could afford to move into my own place. I know she was just as kind to everyone. May she rest in peace.

To the MacDonalds & Camerons. So sorry to hear about the passing of Isabel. A class act, if ever there was. I'm sure mom had a cup of tea waiting for her upon her arrival. Sorry, I won't be there, but, you're all in our thoughts and prayers.
