    I am going to miss Aunty Isobel so much. I will cherish the times I spent singing with her. I just loved when she sang Blue Bayou and I could do backing vocals, she sang it beautifully. There are so many songs that I got to sing with her.
    Rest peacefully Aunty Isobel you are singing with the angels
