Not sure what to say?

This message comes a long time after Izzys passing. I didn't realize he had passed away until today. I met Izzy in 1992 when I came to Alaska to work at Chilkoot Charlies. He was such a good friend and neighbor. Soon after we met we realized we lived 3 blocks away from each other. I worked with him at the Chee for about a year. We spent so much time together over the years having dinners, BBQs, Slumber partys at his house with tons of trash mags and junk food. We saw each other through so...

Janet, Oh you know it! Isi and Jerry are toasting us! Isi adored you both and always spoke of missing you both. I am sorry for your Loss. Mimi

My beloved Jerry may be with you, toasting the memories we all had together on earth. I lost him in October, 2019 and, as with you, I miss him every day.

Has it been over a year already, dear friend? We miss you every day. That special place in our hearts, just for you, remains as strong as ever. We hope you're at peace.

Isidor was and is our very dear friend forever. We think of him often, enjoy the many Alaskan gifts he gave us, scattered throughout our home in Az, and see his picture with us at the Cheechako every single day. We miss you very much, Izzy! Our hearts are scarred, but we are always friends forever.

To the most wonderful man in the world I miss him dearly and will always remember him with the most tender, wholesome heart no matter how terrible I treated him in my addiction, he always remained with a heart of forgiveness.

Izzy was a wonderful person. The world was richer with him in it.

Rest in peace dear Izzy.
Will miss your smiling face and warm heart.
