I love you grandpa. you always knew how to make me laugh. I will always carry you in my heart.we  were so blessed  to have you  as our grandpa and great-grandpa  to my  kids.We  love  more than words can say.

I  was so blessed  to have  Izie Lang  as my grandfather. he's one of the  greatest man I  know.I  will miss him dearly.I  wish I  would of had more time with him. You  will always be in my heart. you are  an angel in heaven dancing again with grandma.

Heavy heart that Izie is no longer with us but blessed to have had him in my life.  He was such a wonderful friend to Dad (Howard Abbott) - words can't describe the friendship they had.  When Dad passed, Izie stepped in and made me and Alisa feel like we had a bonus Dad.  I'll miss our lunches together but so glad we had those times together.  Izie and Dad are back together dancing the night away!

To our wonderful Uncle Izie, I will always remember the times we spent together. Back in the 70's when I was serving in the military, you always had time to spend with me. You always made time to come and visit over the years. I will always miss you.

Izie was not only my father's best friend but he was also like a father to me and my sister. He always knew how to bring smiles and laughter with his witty jokes.  It was an honor to have him in my life and I will miss him tremendously.  Heaven just gained an extraordinary angel.

Izie lang was a great blessing to everyone , wherever he went he made a friend, I will miss my great grandpa , he's been a big inspiration in my life. He taught me how to walk when no one could, I miss you an I will always love you :) your my guardian angel ! <33

I'm saddened to hear of Izie's passing.  It has been my honor and pleasure to provide some of the dance music for this very young at heart gentleman for a number of years, at the Wednesday night dances at the Arlington Senior Citizen's Center.  He always said he enjoyed my trombone playing.  His smiling face and winning personality will be missed by his many friends.  My sympathies to all of his friends and loved ones.

Izie was as fine a person as we have ever met.  He never complained, even near the end.  He was more interested in the welfare of others than to dwell on his own problems. We are honored to have called him a close friend.

Izie has been a part of our family for many years and we will miss him so much.  What a treasure he was and always happy with a twinkle in his eye.  The first time he met Charlie at my house in 2004, he said "I like him!" And they have shared a true friendship ever since. To the family I know these last few months have been difficult and we wish you peace and comfort during this difficult time.  

Love to you all,
Sheila Beach Sowers & Charlie Hofmann

We were saddened to hear of Izie's passing.  We knew Izie from the Friday night dance.  We admired him for his ability to not only attend the dances but to be able to dance.  He will be greatly missed!!

Izie was a kind, gentle soul who was always a true gentleman.  He was active with his dancing talent. He will be missed. He truly was "young at heart". Sincere sympathy to Izie's loved ones.
