Very sincere sympathy to you Tony and to your family. I have very happy memories of dear Isobel at school and when I stayed with Isobel and you a few years ago. Isobel was such a fun and a lovely brave person. All of us who attended the school reunion in 2014 will never forget how hard she and others worked to make it happen and what great fun it was. Isobel lit up so many lives. Now she is at peace, bless her.

For Tony and family, our sincere condolences at the loss of Isobel. There has been a fair bit of water under the bridge since we last saw Isobel. I have fond memories, as a kid, of my times with her and Paddy, and of course, Cis and Leo. Isobel was a gem. I remember her energy, laughter, and interest in everything. Nothing could hold her back. Dr Seuss says it all: don't cry because it is over, smile because it happened.

I have just heard the news of Isabel's passing and I send my sincere sympathy to Tony and family. Having known Isobel for over 55 years there are many wonderful memories of her contribution to the sport of marching and the community. Tony I remember the time that you stayed with us at Eastbourne and then serving your son when we had the Main North Road shop Papanui when he was at St Bedes. Cherish the memories and I will be thinking of you all. Yvonne Palmer
