Next week’s episode of “9-1-1: Nashville” will include a title card to remember Isabelle, who appeared in the pilot episode.
Tate died on October 19.
An online obituary read, “Isabelle was full of fire, a fighter, never once making excuses for the fact that she might have a disability relative to others. She was also quite musically inclined, often spending hours writing and recording songs with friends and even publishing a few.”
The obit went on, “What she loved the most though was spending time with family and friends, always the life of the rave. Her sister was her best friend and her mom was her shining beacon of light.”
