Isaiah Stone Obituary

Isaiah Lee Stone was born June 15, 2009 in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma and went to Heaven on May 17, 2010. He is survived by his father, Renzi, mother, Lee Anne and older brother, Jackson. His extended living family includes paternal grandparents, Larry and Marcine Stone and Vicki Stone, maternal grandparents, Gary and Saundra Young and Lonie and Lewis Pfenninger and great grandparents, Buddy and Wanda Young. In addition, Isaiah was loved by aunts and uncles, including Grant and Brooke Stone, Ginny and David Badanes and Matt Young as well as many others in his extended family. He is also survived by his godfather Aaron Jack and too many friends to list by name. We are also grateful to all of his physicians, especially Michael Vincent and Jennifer Norman. A memorial service for Isaiah is being held at St. Lukes United Methodist Church (222 NW 15th) in Oklahoma City at 10:00 a.m. on Thursday, May 20. He will rest eternally at the St. Lukes Columbarium. Isaiah was larger than life and in his short stay on earth, he taught all in his presence how to laugh, cry and love so deeply. In lieu of flowers, please make all donations to: Youth Leadership Oklahoma, 5500 N. Western, Suite 142, Oklahoma City, OK 73118.
