ISABELLA NICOLE GRESHAM at the age of two years, seven months and 24 days left earth to be with her Lord and her older brother, Bradley in Heaven on Aug. 14, 2014. She was born on Dec. 21, 2011 in Little Rock to her devoted parents Brandon and Brandi Gresham. Although her time here was short, Bella touched many people with her infectious smile and sparkling eyes. She loved curious George, the movie Frozen, balloons, bubbles, her paci and blowing kisses. She will be deeply missed by all who knew her. She was preceded in death by her great-grandfathers, Jimmie Gene Gresham and Henry Degler. She leaves to cherish her memory her parents, Brandon and Brandi; two brothers, Blake and Brady; two sisters, Lydia and Breanna; grandparents, Sharon Gresham Abbott and Ray Abbott, Johnnie Faye Degler and Raymond Garcia, and Steve Murphy; great-grandparents, Jessie Gresham, Horace and Mary Abbott, Betty Butler, Charles Butler, Norma Degler and Dempsey Murphy; and a host of family and friends.

To honor Isabella's love of pink and purple, the family requests that all wear pink and purple on Monday, August 18. In lieu of flowers, please consider donating a Curious George book. Books can be donated at any Griffin Leggett Funeral Home location thru the 30th of August. The family will donate the books to Arkansas Children's Hospital in Bella's name to share her love of Curious George with other children. No one understands that I couldn't love you more even if I'd held your hands. I may have only seen your tiny face but your memory will never be erased. I will never feel your warm embrace. But I know you can never be replaced. My heart was changed the day you left. My soul was shaken and beaten down. Every part of me wishes you could have been kept. Here I will carry a scarred heart. But in our eternal home we will meet one day and never have to part. You beside Jesus will be there to greet your earthly mother. I will then be healed when my journey here is complete.
