Zeddie Isom Obituary
Zeddie was born and spent his childhood in the town of Phil Cambell, Alabama. He moved to Ohio at age 18 and retired from the Ford Motor Company after 42 years. After moving to Florida, retirement was passionately by golfing, fishing, traveling, bike riding and sharing life with his wife, while also spending time with his friends at the New Testament Baptist Church in Floral City. Zeddie's love for his Lord, family, and every person he met was apparent by his acts of compassion, generosity and never failing to shake the hand of a stranger.
Zeddie was preceded in death by his parents, 11 brothers and sisters, and his daughter, Karah Isom. He is survived by his wife of 30 years, Judith (Reed) Isom; brother, Jack Isom; children Tina (Scott) Gearhart, Aaron Isom, Jennifer Moore, Sarah (James) Harness; step children Wendy (Larry) Marsinek, Andrea (Steven) Miller, and Kendra (Walter) Clark; grandchildren Alexis and Corbin Gearhart, Jessica Isom, Samantha Rohrbough, Anthony Prinzo, Jonathan Prinzo, Matthew Prinzo, Spencer Marsinek, Karl and Graham Miller, and Joseph Clark; 14 great grandchildren and 1 great great grandchild.
A celebration of life for family and friends will be held in Ohio this Spring.

Thank you Heavenly Father for the life time blessing of having dad and grandpa to love and cherish all the years of our lives. You were a faithful servant of the Lord, teacher, loving and caring father and grandfather, and we will miss you more than words can convey. We will remember you with pride, respect and love always. Until we meet again enjoy being with Karah. All our love always.
