Well Wishes and Comments
From: Kathleen Ripley
Another Isabel Day is here and we still miss you just as much as ever. You were taken from us at such a young age and we never will know what you were capable of. But I'm sure it would have been full of love, kindness, and a burning sense of justice for everyone less fortunate than our family.
Rest in love and peace, my special girl, I'll love you forever.
Nana.

A verse my Grandma said to me when my own son died:
A heart of gold stopped beating, two beautiful eyes at rest, god took gorgeous Isabel, but he only ever takes the best.

Message For #IsabelDay my daughter and I will be collecting school supplies for children in need. The Long Island Coalition for the Homeless in NY is a wonderful non profit that I have helped in the past. For Valentine’s Day they give out gently used pocketbooks and handbags filled with essentials to homeless women. The drive going on now through August 1 is a school supply drive for homeless children. This seems so perfect to do in Isabel’s memory.

You don’t know me. I have followed Isabel’s journey through another author, but wanted to let you know how much Isabel’s story touched me. I am so sorry for all you are going through. I wanted to let you know that Isabel’s love has reached Wisconsin and a 100.00 donation has been made to Milwaukee Street Angels to help Isabel’s “invisible” friends. I hope her love continues to give you continued comfort in the coming days. ❤️

I attended graduate school with Bill in Ohio many moons ago. I never had the pleasure nor honor of meeting Isabel; however, all three of us have celebrated the same birthday of 8/20. I, myself, am a father of 3. 2 daughters and a son. We live in Los Angeles. I am simply sending love to your family. And will be sending a check in Isabel's honor to one of the charities listed. Thank you for this website.
With love, Jason.

Dear Hairstons:
I don’t know what caused Isabel’s amazing school performance of “Be Our Guest” to pop into my mind on this sunny May day, but I wanted to send a note to let you know that she is remembered with fondness and admiration from a fellow Oak Knoll parent. Her supernova soul continues to light the lives of those who were lucky enough to be near her while she was on earth.
Thank you, Sandi

In honor of Isabel, I am donating to a cause she felt very strong about - Human Trafficking. I just donated $100 dollars in Isabel's name to Polaris. Hugs to you and your family, Emma.
Love lives on ❤️
