Hello CAWylie, Thank you for your message of condolence for the loss of my mother, Isabelle Hall Fiske Calhoun (Barbara Fiske). I would be very happy if now you can create a Wikipedia page for her, something I was never able to achieve in her lifetime. Since her death, her life story has appeared in many online and hard copy publications for her, taking note of her role as co-founder of Quarry Hill in 1946, which makes it the longest-enduring extant community in Vermont and possibly in New England. She was also a great artist with remarkable ability to draw even when very young-- an ability that grew exponentially when she got older. YOu'll find many stories about her life now on the Web-- I can post some links for you.

I'd be so grateful if you could make sure my mother got some of the publicity, or unified awareness of her existence, that Irving Fiske, my father, got both before his death and afterwards. He deserved it, too, but it was harder to gain attention for her life than for his.

I can obtain more information about my mother, including an article in Vermont Magazine a few years past, if need be. Many thanks Isabella Fiske McFarlin Ladybelle Fiske (talk) 03:26, 2 May 2014 (UTC)
