IsaBell Rhodes Barnwell, 95, went home to be with the Lord on Thursday, Feb. 19, 2004, at her home on Fanning Bridge Road in Fletcher.
She was born Oct. 15, 1908, to the late William Pinkney and Harriet Elizabeth Brown Rhodes and was the wife of Lolie J. H. Barnwell who died Oct. 12, 1983.

Known as Mamaw to all who loved her, she will be missed dearly by her family, neighbors and friends. Her memories will never die as we think back to all those Sunday dinners, canned foods and beautiful hand-made quilts. Her home was always warm and open to everyone. Her greatest joy was to give, as she received from the Lord. No one who entered ever left Mamaws and Papaws house hungry.
She is survived by three daughters, Ida Bell Stepp, Pauline Elizabeth Wilkie and Rosa Lee Hines and her husband, Dan, all of Fletcher, 12 grandchildren, 27 great-grandchildren, 18 great-great-grandchildren and several nieces and nephews.
The funeral service will be held at Fletcher First Baptist Church. The Rev. Howard Cabe, the Rev. Roy Waldroup and Chaplain Dean Glacken will officiate. Pallbearers will include Craig Fowler, David Shipley, Jerome Wilkie, Brett Rollins, Tony Cox and Shane Worley.
