in honor of Isabel.

Paul and I met Isabel at cooking classes at the St. Petersburg Yacht Club during Covid. She welcomed us into her world with warmth, laughter, and friendship. We know she is “up there somewhere” enjoying herself again — eating all her favorite foods, laughing with friends, and especially reunited with her husband.

She always spoke lovingly of her family spread all around the world, and it was clear how deeply she cherished them.

You will be missed, Isa, but now it is your time to enjoy your next adventure.

in honor of Isabel.

Con el corazón lleno de amor y gratitud, quiero compartir mis más sinceras condolencias ante la partida de Doña Isa a toda su familia.

Mi memoria más querida de ella es su risa, esa risa que iluminaba cualquier espacio y que, viendo los mensajes de los que la conocieron, sé que muchos llevaremos guardada para siempre. Qué regalo tan hermoso dejar ese recuerdo en el corazón de las personas.

Fue un honor tenerla como mamá de mi hermano y abuela de mi ahijado. Su amor y su presencia se sienten en cada uno de ellos, y eso es una herencia que ningún adiós puede llevarse.

Que brille para usted la luz perpetua, Doña Isa. Descanse en paz. Amén.

Con todo mi cariño,
Marangie

Mi querida Tía Isa. Hoy nos toca despedir con profundo amor y gratitud a una mujer excepcional, una tía que, aunque vivió siempre en otro país, jamás estuvo lejos de nuestro corazón. La distancia nunca fue un límite para su cariño: siempre estuvo pendiente, presente en cada llamada, en cada gesto, en cada palabra de aliento que nos regaló a lo largo de los años.

Fue una persona generosa, de esas que dan sin esperar nada a cambio. Su bondad se sentía incluso a kilómetros de distancia. Siempre apoyó a mi papá y a cada uno de sus hijos, acompañándonos en los momentos importantes, celebrando nuestras alegrías y extendiendo su mano en los días difíciles.

Su vida fue un ejemplo de nobleza, fortaleza y amor sincero. Nos deja recuerdos llenos de ternura y un legado de generosidad que seguirá iluminando a nuestra familia. Aunque hoy sentimos su ausencia, nos consuela saber que su luz y su amor permanecerán con nosotros para siempre.

Descansa en paz, querida tía Isa Gracias por tanto. Nunca olvidaré nuestras charlas y risas en St. Pete! Tu memoria vivirá en cada uno de nosotros.

My dearest Isa, you will be so missed by all of us who love you. Our enduring friendship of fifty-seven years has been a precious gift, and the wonderful memories of our times together as will those with Bob and Paul, Linda and Dan, and our families be with me forever. Your unique ability to excel in all your endeavors, your creativity and flair, your artistic talent and multi interests, your love for your family and your caring for your friends and community all made you the truly extraordinary person you were.
You told me that this photo of you and Bob, taken by a friend in St Petersburg, was one of your very favorites.

These photos were shared by Ronnie, one of Mom's neighbors and dear friends at Bayfront Tower. They capture exactly who she was: at the table, surrounded by people she loved, laughing and enjoying every moment. She needed friendship the way some people need quiet. These photos prove it. Thank you Ronnie, and thank you to everyone who gathered around her and made her life so full.
