As the only granddaughter to this beautiful woman, whom I have respected enough to pass on her legacy to my daughter. With the purpose of blessing my first child with her beautiful name. The lessons that were graced upon me throughout my time spent with Grandma Isabel. Isabel was not only an example, but living proof of a woman with integrity, service, respect, and true sincerity with her movements and the way she spoke. I will always cherish our lifelong memories we shared at Treasure Island and the lifelong lessons she taught me every visit. I still smile at the endless amounts of laughter I shared with my Grandmother. I will miss and cherish our hours of phone calls from my early youth until the very end of her wonderful life. I am forever grateful to call her my grandmother and for her unconditional love and support. She truly taught me what it means to be a loving mother and a loving wife. My daughter can always remember the feelings of unconditional love and warmth her great-grandmother showed despite my child's very young age. My husband always remembers the warm and welcoming first encounter he had with her and Hal. He has always appreciated how much Grandma Isabel and Grandaddy Hal treated him like family. My husband lost his grandmother at a young age and was very grateful to enjoy the time he had with mine. We will never forget you and I always promise to live by the lessons and advice you taught me. My family and I will celebrate your life and your birthday yearly. As I promised you, I will continue to pass on your legacy, integrity, and advice to my daughter Isabel. I know you will be with me and my family as we continue to grow and honor your life. Yours and Grandaddy's'.

Love,
Jessica E. Donohue

Izzy and Hal were our next door neighbors in Pennbrooke Fairways and they were neighbors whose friendliness and kindness we will always appreciate and remember. We were very very sad to hear of Izzy's passing.

Sorry to hear of Isabel´s passing. I was a friend of your Mother´s from high school. Think it was about 10+ years ago that a group of us had lunch together and went back to your Mom´s Apartment. Prayers for peace and comfort.
