Isabelle M. Lupus

Isabelle M. Lupus Together Forever We lost our sweet little mom, Izzy on February 23, 2007. She was 91. She wasn't quite five feet tall but her heart was as big as a house. She went to be with Al, her husband of 70 years. They are dancing together once again to heaven's tunes. Although this is a sad time for us, we smile through our tears to think of them together again. Isabelle was born on January 25, 1916, in Salt Lake City, Utah, to Tony and Katina George. She was preceded in death by her husband Alfred, her daughter, Colleen, two brothers and three sisters. Isabelle married her only love Alfred Lupus on September 28, 1935, in Salt Lake City. She was a life time member of St. Francis Catholic Church and attended every Sunday with her son Greg to hear Father Mike's booming sermons. She served at the Orem Friendship center for over 25 years. With her husband Al, she served lunches to the area's seniors almost every day. She was honored in 2004 as a senior survivor. Isabelle never worked outside the home but she had plenty to do tending her family of six. Her children were her life and she even waited for them to all be with her at death. Izzy is survived by daughters, LaWana (Patrick) Clinton, Draper; Sharon (Mike) Foley, Loveland, CO; Kathy (Brent) Reynolds, Payson; sons, Alfred "Stormy" (Carol) Lupus, Sandy; and Gregory Lupus, Midway; Liz Lupus Matson, Orem; two sisters, Gloria and Jessie. She has 16 grandchildren and 27 great-grand-children and nieces and nephews too numerous to mention. The family wishes to thank Summerfield Manor for the excellent care mom received for the last two years of her life. We wish to thank Karen, Kelly, Kathy and the whole team at A-Plus for years of wonderful service. Thanks to Dr. Sean Curzon and the staff of Timpanogos Regional Hospital for their patience and understanding to our large and extended family during this trying time.
