Isabel will always be known for her SMILE, her genuine interest in others, her wisdom and her beautiful whistle that could be heard throughout the neighborhood. She made a point of connecting personally with all she met.
|
She graduated from Ashtabula High School, then attended Bowling Green State U. and Kent State U., performing in many plays and earning a teaching degree. In 1951, she married Johnny Andres, and they raised four children.
|
A visit to California prompted a move to Escondido in 1968, where she and Johnny owned and operated George & Ann's Drive-In until 1979. Though the hours were long, she smiled and lovingly raised her family. When they built Andres Center on the property, she continued managing the commercial real estate business until her death. Always giving of her time and talents, Isabel was an active member of First United Methodist Church, serving with joy in many capacities. Her ailments never dampened her care for others.
