On the morning of October 25, 2020, Isabella Sophia Varese Cimetta, of the Woodlands, TX, passed away while attending the Texas Renaissance Festival at the age of 19. The GoFundMe is to assist her parents, Vanessa and Dino Cimetta, in paying for the Life Flight expenses. Any help is greatly appreciated. 

“Bella is one of the kindest, most supportive friends I have ever been fortunate enough to have made in my lifetime. She was full of positivity. If someone was doing anything creative and expressive, Bella was always there to support it, because she was that kind of person. She really valued other people expressing themselves, and she helped many people including myself, free themselves from themselves to a point. That is because Bella was always one with the earth, always seeing the best in everyone she met. She was one with God, she was one with nature. She valued the important things in life. The day after her passing, I stepped outside to get some air. Everything was weighing very heavily on my conscious, and I felt a weight on me. That is, until a ladybug landed right on my hand and I knew in that moment, that was Bella coming to say hello. I have known Bella since elementary school, and even though we haven’t always kept in touch, I will never forget the way that she touched my life permanently from day one. Growing up in the woodlands it was hard for me to feel comfortable being myself around my peers, because I didn’t quite fit in. With Bella that was not even a factor, and I remember talking to her and social constructs played no role in the conversation. She was completely authentically herself. She was beautiful inside and out, and I will never forget her and the way that she has changed my life. Until we meet again, angel.”
