Isolde was born in what was Germany and lived through WWII there, she often shared the stories of her childhood and the challenges her family faced as they were forced from their homes during other countries invasions. She was a Breast Cancer survivor and was always strong in whatever adversity came her way.

Isolde was a feisty Chicago Cubs Fan and was thrilled to see them win the World Series. She enjoyed her Pinocle Club and playing Rummy and other games with her grandchildren and enjoyed attending the many sporting events or other extracurricular activities of her grandchildren.

Isolde loved spending time with her family here in the states as well as Germany. She loved to travel the United States as well as Europe. She was always willing to “go for a spin” just to be outside of the house and look at something different.
