While living in Hazelton she met and married Lawrence Willan and had three daughters. Izzy gave up her career to raise her children and later in life became a cook, working in local restaurants and in several camps. She loved to go camping and fishing with “Laurie” and their friends. Mom was full of life and always had a story to tell. She will be greatly missed by those that knew and loved her. As per Mom’s request there will be no service.
