  Notes	Isabelle was placed in an orphanage when she was four years old, her mother being unable to raise her on her own. Jake Schopf writes that his mother "had a happy childhood in the orphanage. She has a bubbly personality, and enjoys playing games. She is talented musically, playing many different instruments, though her trademark is the accordian. She too decided to be a missionary. She went to Bible College in California, and then took nurse's training to earn her R.N. Izzy went to Brazil as a single missionary in 1951." In fact, her mission in Brazil preceeded the joint mission that she and her husband later embarked on.
