Isaac will be missed greatly not just by our daughter Terra, but by myself. He was my first love and even though we split up I still wished him only the best in life. A part of him lives on in Terra. She has so much of his artistic talent. Rest in peace my Taz.

Deepest Sympathy to Isaac's family, friends and adoptive family Marc and Debbie. Paul and I got to know Isaac and one of Marc and Debbie's kids. You had a great sense of humor and loved the wise cracks. You will be missed and I hope you had that special time with your daughter. Last time we talked, you had told me you were going to be with your daughter. I know that your love for her was greater than anything. Rest in peace. Paul and Margaret Parris
