I'm heartbroken to hear about the passing of my classmate and friend. He called me the night before his passing to fill me in on what we could do to assist one of our other classmates with her loss. I am thankful that we were able to have that conversation and make that connection before his passing. We grew up together — from classrooms to football fields, from childhood mischief to adult memories. He wasn't just a classmate, he was a true friend — someone who always made you feel seen and remembered.

Our fathers were friends before us, and somehow that bond carried through. He always kept me connected to our small town, never letting me forget where we came from. Whether it was a message to fill me in on the latest, or a surprise serenade — yes, even in the middle of Walmart — he had a way of lighting up the moment and making you laugh no matter what kind of day you were having.

I'll always remember his voice, his humor, his huge heart, and the way he made everyone feel like they mattered. There's an emptiness in our community now, but also so many memories filled with warmth because of him.

Rest easy, my friend. You'll never be forgotten.

I was heartbroken to hear about the sudden passing of Isaac. He was not only a dear friend but also a source of light and joy in the lives of everyone who knew him. I will always cherish the fond memories we shared. Isaac had such a way of making people feel special. Every time I saw him, he would remind me that I was his "high school homecoming queen," and it always made me smile. He had this incredible habit of checking in with me every week – a simple "Hello, classmate, how you doing?" or "I love you" that made a big difference in my life. His kindness, humor, and warmth were a gift, and I will forever carry those memories with me. Beyond his friendship, Isaac was also an outstanding football player in high school, and his energy and spirit were always contagious. His legacy of kindness and laughter will surely be missed by all who had the privilege of knowing him. To his family, my heart goes out to you. I can only imagine the pain you must be feeling, and I hope you find comfort in knowing how deeply Isaac touched the lives of everyone around him. His spirit will live on, and his memory will always bring a smile to my face. Melinda,

Farwell Thy good and Faithful Servant. I honor you for your meekness, your kindness and the support you showed to our Team. We will always remember your banana bread you would bring. The sharing of lunches and how you bought the calmness to every situation. A one of a kind, unique honest to good person. Words can't express the sorrow in our hearts. We LOVE YOU, but we know GOD LOVES You more. A Beautiful Flower gone to Glory!!!!!!See You later!
