It was my great, good fortune to interview Izola E. Collins in the year 2000 as part of a series of conversations I conducted with accomplished Galveston County women for Guidry News.
I’m thankful to have become one of her many friends and admirers. My husband, Jim, knew her long before I met her and held her in great esteem.
There are many wonderful things that have been said about her throughout her long, productive life. I would add that Izola always brought out the best in those who encountered her.
I offer this recording of that 2000 interview.as a testament to Izola’s intellect and spirit. Women of Influence - Izola E. Collins Listen to interview
I hope it will give listeners the pleasure that it continues to give me.
