   Isabelle, the daughter of Robert and Emma (Rathman) Wegner, was born August 23, 1925 in Wausa, NE.  She grew up on a farm near Bloomfield, NE and attended Bloomfield Schools.  Shortly after graduating high school, Isabelle’s family moved to Sioux City.  In her early years, she worked at Rob Ross.

   On November 9, 1947, Isabelle was united in marriage to William McLarty at Trinity Lutheran in Sioux City and this union was blessed with four children.  Isabelle was a hardworking homemaker dedicated to her husband and her children.  When her children were adolescents, she went to work at North High in the lunchroom until her retirement.

   Isabelle was a member of Calvary Lutheran Church and was very involved in church activities including Dorcas Circle and general volunteerism.  Over the years, she was a faithful blood donor.  In addition, she enjoyed volunteering at the Soup Kitchen, being part of the Girls of 68, and the Lutheran mixed bowling league.  Above all, family was everything to her.

   Isabelle is survived by her daughter, Kathy Spitz; two sons, Michael (Linda) and Patrick (Lisa); three grandchildren; four great grandchildren; one sister, Phyllis (Roger) Ambroz; and nieces and nephews.

   She was preceded in death by her parents; husband, William on November 16, 2007; daughter, Peggy; one granddaughter; two brothers and one sister.

   In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be directed to Calvary Lutheran Church.
