Issac was an appreciative, brave, and adventurous boy who lit up our world with laughter and kindness.

Issac was an avid collector of coins, pocketknives, and rocks. From a very young age he aspired to be a Geologist.

Issac cherished traveling with his family. Some of his favorite adventures included New York City, Chicago, Memphis, The Bahamas, Longboat Key, Steamboat Springs, Amelia Island, and Fisher Island. However, his most beloved excursions were at his Lake house in Kuttawa, Farm in Ohio County, and at home in Owensboro.
