Isla Daun Lundell passed away on February 29, 2024, due to sudden respiratory failure. She had a long history of respiratory, cardiovascular, and skeletal complications. She was born on July 17, 2019 to Ryan and Jamie Lundell in Salt Lake City, Utah and was the youngest of three children.
Isla was always happy, despite her many medical challenges. She was as girly as they come and loved all things pink, barbie, baby, or princess related. She loved helping her Mom with anything and laundry was her favorite chore. She loved her Daddy, and whenever she needed help she insisted that he be the one to assist.
She was always the smallest in her age group by a significant margin, but made friends easily. Because she struggled to walk and didn’t like to be knocked over, she preferred games like chalk drawings on the sidewalk instead of playing on a playground.
She loved to sing, and even though she was small and usually quiet, we never had a hard time hearing her songs. She especially loved to sing songs from Frozen. Some of her other favorites were 5 Little Monkeys, You’re a Mean One Mr. Grinch, Spookley the Square Pumpkin, and Gaston (from Beauty and the Beast).
Her favorite movie was Trolls 2. She also loved Sing 2, Frozen, and Toy Story 2, among many other favorites. She had an unusual interest in live action movies for someone her age and generally preferred them over the animated; such as Beauty and the Beast, How the Grinch Stole Christmas, and The Little Mermaid. Other favorites included Annie (2014 film) and Bedtime Stories.
Memorial services will be held on Saturday, April 13, 2024. Please join us any time from 3-6 p.m. 1298 North 400 West Centerville, UT 84014

Jamie and Ryan,
I wanted to send my deepest condolences. I took care of sweet Isla in her NICU days. She stole my heart instantly. She was always so sweet and calm, yet so strong. She has always stayed in my heart and I have thought of her often when I cared for other babies with similar diagnosis and obstacles. I remember what dedicated NICU parents you were and how you learned so much so quickly, so you could be such incredible advocates. It was so fun to read about sweet Isla and all of her favorite things. I am so very sorry for this unimaginable loss. Sending so much peace and love, Ashlee Bell
I can't adequately put into words how I feel about sweet Isla. She will be in my heart forever. She is one of the most precious little girls I have ever met. I feel honored to have been able to spend time with her. She was such a hard worker at speech tx and playing play dough with her always brightened my day.
I am so very sorry for all the broken hearts that are missing this precious little girl.
Nora and Isla attended Canyon Creek preschool together. Nora loved Isla dearly and often pretends to be Isla whenever she plays school. Isla was a very loved little one and lives on through the love of her fellow classmate.
Sending all the love possible!
My deep condolences to your family. Isla was such a beautiful little girl. Her spirit will live on in the memories of those who loved her and whose lives have been touched by her. I’m grateful to your family for having me be a part of her care team.
