Born October 27, 1939, Isabel was truly known for her loving, kind and generous spirit. She would show her love and care for those around her by knitting handmade blankets to cherish as a physical representation of her love.

Those in her circle know she loved playing cards with her friends and lovingly recount how she would make the rules up to games as she went.

She will be deeply and forever missed.
