We are very sorry for the loss of your wife, mother, grandmother and aunt. We will miss her very much. She was very special in my life. I remember all the crazy things we did as youngsters and how patient she was with us.

So sorry to hear about Mabel's passing. I am a first cousin who grew up in CT and it saddens me to know how few of us are left. Her mother, Effie, always made me a cake when we visited AR. I have such fond memories of that part of the family.

Isaac and Family:
I did not have the pleasure to meet Mabel but I have felt her wonderful presence. In the final days of her life she contributed mightily to the Wichita community through her apperance in the United Way video. Together Isaac and Mabel motivated thousands to donate to help people in need. As she enjoys her final reward please know how much the gift of herself will be helping others in the coming year. Our condolences to all.

My heart goes out to you during your time of loss. Even tho she has been sick for a long time and you're relieved that she is no longer suffering, there is still a void that will always remain. I loved her as I do each of you.
