Obituary
DEFOREST - Isabel Mae Statz, age 44 days old, passed away in the loving arms of her mom and dad, with family by her side, at UW Hospital on Dec. 30, 2023.
Isabel was born on Nov. 16, 2023, in Madison, Wis., the daughter of Austin and Libby (Manthe) Statz. Despite her short time on earth, this 7lb 3oz angel showed strength and courage, and we are forever grateful for loving and knowing her. She was deeply loved and brought immense joy to those around her. She was loved by all who knew her and will be greatly missed.
During her brief visit to earth, she loved to be held, snuggled, and read to by mom and dad, swaddled, and cared for by the NICU team.
Isabel will forever be remembered by her mom and dad, aunts, uncles, and grandparents.
Isabel was preceded in death by her grandpa, Roger Manthe; infant uncle, Jonathan Manthe; and many great-grandparents.
A funeral service will be held at ZION EVANGELICAL LUTHERAN CHURCH, W6906 County Road K, Arlington, at 11 a.m. on Thursday, Jan. 4, 2024, with Pastor Jacob Scott presiding.
