Mom you were an amazing lady. Your beauty shone from the inside out. I always said if I could be half of what you were like I could make it through this life. You taught us all right from wrong, you loved us unconditionally, most of all you chose us. Not only have I lost my mom I have lost my best friend as well. I know you are in a better place. You are no longer in pain and you are not in your chair anymore. Not beholden to anyone. Love you mom

Dear Margaret, I am very sorry to hear about your mom passing. My condolences to you and your family

Dear Margaret, Your Mom used to say I was you big sister, which made me proud. Isabel had a giant heart and soul. She took me in when I was fifteen and changed my life forever. She was my mentor, role model and an honest true friend. I wish her peace.I know you, Mary and Jeff will miss her.

My dear Mary, Margaret and Jeff. I don't know if you are aware of how much your Mom meant to me and to our family. She included us in and introduced us to experiences that we never would have known without her. Her kindness has always had an impact on me and I am so proud and grateful to have known her. I know you will miss your Mom and you have my sincere sympathy. Treasure all the wonderful memories she gave you. You are in my prayers and my thoughts. All the best to you, Patricia Hawkes nee O'Connor

you will be missed deeply mom...you were and are my special angel..I love you....love mary

I'm a Carwest volunteer and have been visiting Isabel every week for almost 2 years. We hit it off the first 5 minutes we met. I truly looked forward to our weekly visits and our wonderful conversations. It was a pleasure getting to know her and listen to the stories about her life and her love for her children and grandchildren. She had a heart of gold and so giving with her kindness. I will miss her deeply and my warm condolences go out to her family during this very difficult time. Deanne

I always enjoyed Isabel's company and chatting with her while we had coffee when I brought her talking books from the Library. I wish I had had more time to get to know her. My sincere condolences to her family.

Many years ago, I spent the summer with Dr. Stevenson and family while I went to summer school.(Mary & Margaret were young at the time.) I have forgotten many things since then, but not the kindness that Dr. Stevenson showed me. My life and I think the world are much better for having known her. Please accept my sincere condolences for your loss. Kind regards, Judi Jeffers

Dear Maggie; So very sorry to read about Stevie's passing. Jeanette Ho phoned me last night and she had heard from Dr. Thistlewood. The Grace pipeline still works. We had great times at the Grace and your Mom was very much loved and respected, as were you. You're all in my thoughts and prayers Maggie. Your old locker partner Anne
