<div itemprop="description">Foot, Isabella <br />(nee Wallace)<br />August 5, 1922-June 4, 2014<br /><br />It is with sadness that we announce the passing of Isabella Foot, beloved wife of Harold (Bill) Foot, on June 4, 2014 at the age of 91.<br /><br />Born in Glasgow, Scotland, Isabella spent her youth in and around Glasgow before moving to London, England. She proudly served as an inspector in a Rolls Royce engine factory during the Second World War, and then was a top line waitress at Lyon's restaurant in Piccadilly Square in London, where she would, post war, meet her future husband and love of her life Harold. They were married in 1947.<br /><br />Isabella and Harold had two sons, Neal and Raymond, and in 1953 they immigrated to Canada, where Isabella settled into a devoted career as wife, mother and homemaker extraordinaire while Harold pursued a career in Canadian Pacific Railway's police force. They made their home in Toronto, London and Windsor, Ontario before settling in Calgary in 2001.<br /><br />Isabella is survived by her husband of 67 years, Harold; her son Neal and daughter in law Kathryn; her son Raymond and daughter in law Catherine; her grandchildren Kenneth (Janice); Matthew (Lena); Jennifer (Colin) Munro; Brian; James; Kyle and Lauren; and her great grandchildren Allison and Scott; Sydney and Nolan; Yannicia and Jayda. She will be sorely missed by her niece Kathy Webster of Torquay, England and brother and sister in law Roy and Denise Foot of Kent, England; families of both Kathryn and Catherine; Jamie, Nicholas, Megan and Paige and numerous other relatives and friends in the United Kingdom and Canada.<br /><br />Her family will greatly miss her strong character, wit, wisdom, determination and her unquestioned love and support.<br /><br />The family would like to send a special thank you to the HomeCare workers and others who over the last several years provided Isabella with loving care and support in her home; to Drs. Todd Anderson, Dale Utigard and Brenda Hemmelgarn; and to the staffs of both Foothills and Rockyview Hospitals, who Isabella remembered for their warmth and kindness in her much too frequent visits in the last several years.<br /><br />A Memorial Service celebrating Isabella's life will be held at Eden Brook Funeral Home, 24223 Township Road 242 ( Lower Springbank Road, west of 101st St. SW) on Wednesday, June 11th at 1:00 p.m. Memorial tributes may be made in Isabella's name by mail to the Salvation Army, 200, 1731 29th Street SW, Calgary, Alberta T3C 1M6.</div>
