Mums sharp wit and sense of humour will be missed. But importantly, with her calm composed persona rarely raised her voice or lost her temper. "Logic and Reason over Emotion" was the motto and with on the mark timing, she told you exactly what you needed to hear. Her wisdom was a gift to us. She was a good listener. She was a good teacher. She could make you laugh. She could make you think. Isabella was happy and contented with a cup of tea and good book. Happy to go for a walk and talk. Happy in the moment. With a bright disposition, laughter was important to her.
The family would like to thank Cornerstone Care Society, Maplehill Langley Hospital Residential Care facility, Dr. Brendan Martin and staff for their professional care, thoughtfulness and nurturing lovingkindness.
"If God could give the gift,
to see ourselves
as others see us"
