He was a pure and life saving man, but above all else, he was a loving son, brother, and friend. He was a truly gifted artist, musician, and brought nothing but joy to everyone he met.
Isaiah was actively pursuing a career change, and was finally going to achieve his dream of becoming a game developer in Austin. But was denied his dream when he was stolen from this world.
He had far too much life left in him to be taken in this way.
