I had the privilege of taking care of Isabel for 3 years through Hospice. One year at her lake home, and then 2 years at Tendercare. I have never meet a sweeter person than what Isabel was. She was my little Angel. Every Friday was shower day, and afterwards she would ask me to set her hair if I had time. I always took the time, even if I was running late. Because I knew how special that one little thing I did for her meant to her. Every Monday, she would tell me how many compliments she had gotten on her hair on Friday. I'm so glad God brought Isabel into my life. It was such a privilege and an honor to have met her and been by her side during her final days on earth. Now God has her, she is in no more pain. And he just received the best Angel on Earth. Heaven will be so much brighter with Isabel up there. I loved her like she was my own mother, and she will always remain in my heart. God Bless and watch over your family.

John and family: I worked with Isabelle at Dykema Office Supplies. She was such a wonderful person to know and work with. She was like a second mother to me. Her faith was very strong and she treated everyone with kindness. I will always remember the luncheons she had at her house on the lake for all of us ladies at Dykema's. She is now in God's hands and free to do all the things she loved. My prayers are with the entire family.

Yet, because of the life and love Isabel impacted in my life, my spirit also unites in joyful solidarity as we celebrate her life gifted to us and now fully present with our Lord. You are in my thoughts, prayers and heart at this time. May God's comfort saturate you in a special way and grant you peace. Much love.

We are very sorry about your Mother's passing. We felt like we knew her when your ministered here in South Haven. We went through some of the same things with our mothers. God has gained another angel in heaven from the greatest generation! Blessings to you and your family,

Isabel was to everyone at Dykema's not only a friend, but a confidant and a beacon of joy and hope. What a life well lived to the benefit of others. Our deepest sympathy to the family and friends.
