Isobel was born on November 9, 1944 the eldest of four children of the late Kenneth and Kathlyne (Mustard) McCowan. She was raised on the family farm near Brucefield, ON. During their 52 years of marriage, Allan and Isobel resided in Walkerton, Hanover, Wingham and Waterloo Region and were active members of various churches, most recently, First Baptist Church and volunteered with the Gideons International. Isobel's homemaking skills were lovingly shared with her own children and grandchildren as well as in long-term care residences and home care. Isobel lived out the biblical command to "love your neighbour" and used her beautiful smile and loving personality to warm the hearts of those who she interacted with.
