Isabella Arianna Blanton

Isabella Arianna Blanton, of Murray, KY born October 18, 2002, died at home on August 22, 2022 of natural causes. Her mother, Felesia Kimbro, was at her side. Isabella fought a hard battle from the start; she was born with a chromosomal condition called Prader-Willi Syndrome. Like many people with Prader-Willi, Isabella developed subsequent health issues throughout her life. In 2019, Isabella was diagnosed with lung cancer.

Isabella is survived by her mother, Felesia Kimbro; father Darryl Blanton; sisters Jasmine Blanton and Amber-Leigh Hall; brothers Nicholas Blanton and Jeremy Kimbro; and she is preceded in death by both sets of grandparents.

Isabella had a fierce and generous heart. She had a strong sense of right and wrong, and she never hesitated to tell you what side of that equation a given person or thing fell on. Isabella loved collecting dollars and would use her money not just for herself but for others around her, particularly other children and babies. She bought them clothes and toys if she thought they were otherwise going without. Isabella loved her family, both blood and chosen, deeply.
