Hi, Im Emily, Izzys big sister.

On November the 10th, 2006, Isabel ('Izzy') Borau was found dead in her Benhill Avenue
flat in Sutton, Surrey. She had hung herself. Izzy was only 17 years old, a shining star taken away
from us in what can only amount to a moment of madness. Izzy had three older sisters, Emily(me),
Anna and Jenny, and a younger brother, Hannes. Peter, Izzys dad committed suicide in 2005. Kate,
Izzys mum lives in Sutton with Jenny and Hannes.

So many people have asked me to create a website for Izzy. More recently we have experienced a
double tragedy as Anna took her own life on January 11th. There is a separate Gone Too Soon website
for Anna, please visit it.

Nothing compares to the pain of losing a loved one to suicide, but by creating this site I hope I
can reach out to others who knew Izzy, and let them know that they are not alone.

'For everything I touch, you touch,
For every step I take, you take,
For every breath I breath, you breathe,
Every move I make, you make.
I told you we'd make it to the sunshine one day,
You just got there a little quicker'
(Tupac Shakur, The Good Die Young)

R.I.P. Izzy - Sister ~ Daughter ~ Friend

Please light a candle for Izzy. Also visit
