Dear Uncle Allan and my Beloved Cousins,
My heart is heavy with your loss,
Aunt Isabel was a bright shining star in my life. I loved her laughter, her kind heart, her love for her family and all whom she met. Isabel embraced people and loved them for who they were. There wasn’t anything she couldn’t do other than beat this terrible disease. Michele and Allan, you have been her pillar of strength, her hope in dismal times and her rock to lean on. Take pride in your care of her precious body, heart and soul. You are amazing people and much loved.
Blessings to all of you!

Isabel was what they call the salt of the earth. Always welcoming, always positive and cheerful. It was a pleasure to know her. Alan, I send my love and blessing to you and the family. It isn’t easy to lose someone you love but she will have a huge welcome on the other side judging from the list of all those who have gone on before her. And she will be waiting there for those she loves. She had a life that was certainly worth celebrating as she touched so many. No doubt that she will be remembered for a very long time.
