I met Isabelle in 1969 when she taught with my husband, Gene, at Glen Ogilvie Public School. We spent many good times together with her and Ken at parties. She was always so much fun to be with and I know she will be deeply missed. Sadly, Gene also passed away, last September. There is nothing more I can say than how very sorry I am.
Please accept my condolences.

Quelle triste nouvelle. Isabelle tu as été un pilier incontournable dans toutes les activités du Mifo.
Ton bénévolat était sans limite.
On avait tellement hâte que tu reviennes quand arrivait le printemps!
Tu nous as aidé avec les souper danse, le pickle ball, la pétanque et tant d’autres choses.
Ton sourire et ton énergie étaient contagieux.
Tu restes gravée dans mon cœur pour toujours.
Ken je t’envoie mes plus belles pensées. Aussi belles que ce couple que vous formiez.
