Isaiah... yesterday was the date you entered into the pearly gates of Heaven! You were welcomed with open arms and met with lots of love! You are now surrounded by your grandmother, grandfather, aunts, and uncles! You are truly missed! Yesterday, Trenton celebrated his golden birthday! He turned 10 years old! It´s amazing how much he reminds us of you and how he acts just like you! He loves to love! He has so many of yours ways and his mannerism is on point like you! Although, he lived far away from his grandparents, he called them just like you! It´s soo funny! And he´s always telling us what he wants or needs just like you! He´s keeps us on our toes just like you! Thank you God for sending us both you and Trenton! We ask God to continue watching and protecting Trenton so we could continue seeing you in him! We also ask God to continue protecting and watching over all our family!
We love you Isaiah!

Isaiah,
I hadn´t a dream about you a couple of days ago. My God it was seemed so real!!! I had not dreamed of you in sometime. When I woke up from such a dream I´m looking for you, you three.
In my dream, you were there with Willie and dad. You all had on black tuxedos with bright white shirts. The white on the shirts of the three of you were so radiant, they were reflective, and almost blinding white. I was watching you three as you were coming out of a garden of flowers towards me. You were all so lucid, smiling and jovial. I stood there as you all three approached me. All at once, you started calling mom what you use to call her in the living. Your voices sounded like the did when you were living.
Dad is saying where is EmmaJean? Willie was saying where is mom? And you Isaiah was saying where is Grandma? You were almost saying it in harmony together each calling her by the names you each called mom in the living.
My mother passed today. To the core of me, I thank you for greeting her happily. I said dad looking younger and the happiest I had probably seen him. Willie looking younger too. Isaiah you were at the front of the pack. Thank you all for ushering her to Heaven!
Love
Monica

Isaiah!!!
Matthew and Faridah married October 5, 2024.!!!! What a glamorous bride and chic groom! What an awesome gathering with family and friends! Isaiah you would have been overcome with emotions seeing how your friends have never forgotten you or your family since you left this world. You would be so proud to see their maturity, families, and enduring love. You´d be so proud to know you made the right choices in picking your friends, their love for you endures for you still today.
Although you are out of the body, your spirit still visits us and live with our memories, and each other. I have felt an enormous amount of support and remembrance over the 17 years. I must admit sometimes, it sometimes hard for me to push forward, because my heart will always be wounded but with God´s Grace and such graceful friends, I stand strong. Thank you so very much Matthew and Faridah and friends. My eyes see through you and many of Isaiah´s friends happiness, growth, love, unification and two people uniting as one. I see a piece of Isaiah in each of you. You bring out the sweet always in such a tragic loss of losing Isaiah. Thank you from the core of my heart! Monica Charles

Isaiah,
It has been 17 since since you left us. We´ve had 17 years to work on grief and adapting to your absence. Your loss has never healed, just managed. I always feel off as the date you left us approaches. I don´t cry as much but I do corky things for example, I´ve had the same car since 2016. Today, (July 9) I went to Sam´s Club to get gasoline. I pulled in and realized I parked my vehicle on the wrong side of tank and I´m too far from pump. They weren´t busy so I drove out from the far end to park in the middle only to realize I repeated the same process on the wrong side of my tank. I went out and finally on third try, I parked on the correct side, finally on the side of my gas tank. I also started July 9 by showing up for an appointment on the wrong date. I typically keep July 10 closed to visits or appointment´s because it´s my time to reflect or keeping your memory alive within me. I like to reminisce, reflect, and be with my thoughts. Every place or new experiences, I can picture you there in my mind.
I will always miss you. I always privately cry prior to any event I´m invited to that you were so deeply connected. The bittersweet is always there, however not as painful. Although you will never have graduate from college, marry, and/ or have children. I never knew I´d be so happy to proud of seeing you friends aging (gracefully and beautifully), finding careers, marry and having children. Seeing them parenting. I see you in each and everyone of them. The first couple of years I wasn´t strong enough in my emotions and pain. Thank you all for supporting and allowing me to be a window and a part of your lives.
Isaiah I have been blessed in ways you´d be so proud and overwhelmed by beauty you always knew existed among your friends. Isaiah although you´re absent in body you´ve never left me in spirit and heart.
Love always Mom

Dear Isaiah happy birthday. Thank you for sharing yourself so completely with our family... As I drive down Sweetwater Avenue I often remember watching you and Matthew driving off after your high school graduation so full of joy . It doesn´t seem like it was so long ago. I miss your bright sunshine and how you brought so much laughter and brevity into our lives. I send my love and prayers to your family today. Sending all my love Isaiah.

Isaiah,
You would be celebrating your 36th birthday this week! I know it would have a big-to-do for you! There would be a limo in your ride and you´d be dressed exceptionally sharp!
As a mom, my heart will always have that empty space, that heartache but I´ve learned to manage. There hasn´t been a day I have not thought of you since the moment I first carried you in my womb, to the time I held you in my arms. I know you´re in a better place and yet I feel like you are always with me in spirit. Two of my absolute closest people, in the universe, who always wanted to be close talk to me daily, both celebrate their birthdays 7 days apart. You and Willie! Thank you both for being my guardian angels! Thank you for both for teaching to me to love unselfishly. Thank you both teaching me resilience! I learned endurance, defying obstacles, and to live life to fullest as you both did. I march on in life in spite of heartache because I know you´d both want that for me, Alexis, and Gino. My heart smiles and glows because of you too. I know you are both somewhere wearing a yellow shirt or a red shirt when you´re not all decked out for your respective birthdays.
Love you Isaiah (March 20) and Willie (March 27)

Isaiah,
Mathew Gerdes texted me yesterday because he wanted to know where your shell rest because your spirit and soul resides in Heaven. Your spirit and soul resides in each one of us that loved you then and now. Your friends carry the torch of your remembrance everyday. They take away a little bit of the bitterness in your loss and make it sweeter every passing year. I never anticipated they would still be an anchor of support and endurance for the long hall. I´m certain for the rest of my life I´ve been blessed beyond words but such caring friends! God bless you all! Monica, Gino, and Alexis.

Marques,
I had a wonder time meeting you and you´re family. I was so overwhelmed by your hospitality, meeting your phenomenal wife Lily, Camillo and Juju. The best and heartfelt breakfast you prepared for myself and your family filled and nourished my soul. The flowers are beautiful. We shared many experiences of Isaiah. I´m so honored and he would be so honored to know he´s still remembered in you and everyone else´s daily lives. I cried to tears of joy seeing you and your family when I left you. I feel like when I get together with Isaiah´s friends, I always feels like he accompanies me in spirit and escorts me home. Isaiah and Willie both. I was having such a good time remembering and watch the beautiful flow of Juju (10 months) and Lily, you and Camillo Isaiah, and your beautiful family dynamics. I forgot to take pictures. I only took one quick snap shop of Camillo. He was enjoying the texture and feel of the curtains and the strength of the curtains anchored to the rod. Thank you all for making the difficult journey a little easier with your beautiful love and kindness. It carries me so far. It endures me in my most difficult hours. Thank you for allowing happy tears to flow when I left you.
I see Isaiah in each and everyone of you. Marques when you opened the door, I think I blurted out Marques you have grey hair! What I meant to say or process in my mind. I see your beauty and Isaiah would have this beautiful grey too. Seeing his friends and siblings is age progression of his beauty within you. Thank you for sharing home, family, and flowers with me. I´m forever grateful. God bless and thank you. Monica

Hartmann family,
You guys made my heart sing joyous delight! I was in such awwww of your family, Isaiah´s basketball skills, Remy´s social skills, her use of language and her rambunctious activities reminded me of Alexis, at that age. Maya sounds spunky and very familiar to me, myself. I truly had a great time! My Isaiah was there in spirit. He would have been so honored that after nearly 16 years he is remembered, honored in namesake and loved. Kevin I´m so proud of you, taking the journey and becoming a registered nurse! I believe like ministry, nursing is also a calling on your life and a commitment. Thank you for answering!
When Isaiah use to call me at work, he always honored the title of nursing. I worked many places and when ever he called me. My coworkers would be perplexed when he called. They would say there is a man with a deep voice (13 years and up, Isaiah had that deep voice) on the phone asking to speak to Nurse Charles. I immediately knew it was him. He was the only one ever now and then, that always called me by Nurse Charles. Registered Nurse Hartmann congratulations!!!!
Isiah loved kids. He would have been a great Uncle! When I look at his friends and my family carrying on his namesake, I receive a glimmer of where Isaiah would be 35 years of age. He would relish in the delight of it all! Wendy and Kevin you´d hear a lot of I told you so on his match making. He´d also be very skilled being an uncle and a big brother! Isaiah presented so much spunk being a friend and a little brother. He could take bratty to exponential levels. We miss him and carry him in our hearts daily, sometimes the door opening can be painful, thank you all for shining light, endearment, and memories that will carry me the rest of my life.
Wendy, Kevin, Isaiah, Maya, and Remy I´m up for another ice cream social or basketball game. Thank you so much. Monica
Wendy and the Hartmann Family!
March 23, 2023
Hi! This message is for Monica and I hope it finds you well! It´s been quite some time since we´ve been able to see and speak with you. We wanted to give you some much needed updates. Isaiah is about to be 9! next month and to say he reminds us of your Isaiah is really becoming an understatement the older he gets! This boy has never met a stranger, he´s hilarious and charming and so handsome. He´s obsessed with basketball and we talk about uncle Isaiah who´s watching over us all the time. Maya is 6 now and also plays basketball and loves anything outdoors. Remi is new and 2.

Hi Isaiah.. another year has gone by and still missing you very much! I visited grandma during July 4th holiday and so many things happened that continuously put you on our mind! We think about you and we know your presence is in full effect. As the bible says, absent from the body but never absent from the mind! We miss you and granddaddy so much! I always say to myself what would daddy say or do! He was very knowledgeable when it came to fixing things and if you had been alive, I´m sure you would have learned a lot from him And Willie! Continue to rest on until we see each other again! Love you all! Oh yeah, I´m sure you have Aunt Jessie Lee smiling from cheek to cheek and loving on her!

We’re all trying to make the difficult adjust without you. I’ve learned so much from you over the past 20 years. You really took in every moment of life her on earth. Alexis and I really expected to see you get very old with us. We live now knowing, this place is temporary and we will unite with you Willie, Isaiah and Dad again. We ask you all to continue to keep us in prayer.

Hi friend! It´s been a while on here but never long when it comes to us talking or thinking about you! Our little family has grown bigger with your new niece Remi who is now three months. Isaiah is huge and is involved in hockey which he´s obsessed and just finished a season of basketball and watching the big smile on his face on the court brought us back to you! Maya has also gotten heavy into basketball. She walks around the house dribbling and acting like she´s in the middle of the game at all times. We miss you and Kevin and I are are coming up on our 8th wedding anniversary and 14 years together and thank you is all I can say because as we joke all the time, we owe our amazing life and love for each other to you!!! Happy birthday my friend!

Happy Heavenly Birthday Isaiah!! I think about you often and when I do it brings a smile and a tear! A smile for the great memories and tear because you’re missed. I’m sure if you were here today, you would most definitely spread your love with lots of welcomed hugs and kisses! But, I know God needed you more!! You have been joined by other relatives and now another, your stepfather. You all are absent from the body but present with Lord! You all continue to watch over each other, know that you are missed and loved!!
Rest on nephew and love you dearly!!

Isaiah,
Today would be your 33rd Birthday. God gives us no more than we can endure. The pain of losing you will always be there but like a scar it will forever has its mark but can heal or have flare ups. The mark forever left on my heart but the love of you will always supersede the pain, your unselfishness, the compassion for others, the sacrifices even in death will forever stand for who you are. The sacrifices, the carrying, the match-making of your high school friends, later married and have the fruits of their continued matrimony and love. The friendships of your high school friends that endure even today to support me year and year, the genuine and authentic relationships that have endured me, my family thru it all. I can´t express in words how true family and friends have enriched and supported me when I needed you most, even when I thought I could do it alone. I couldn´t and I thank you all for the beautiful journey before and after Isaiah´s passing. I feel truly blessed.
Please stay safe. I´m looking forward to seeing you guys in July 2021.
God bless you,
Love Charles Family

Marie,
I saw your name and almost instantly one tear flowed and then a steady stream of tears, the lump in my throat and more tears. I have been making mask as you know this pandemic has us in overtime in thought and some in work and dedication. Nurses, doctors, healthcare personnel are our sisters and brothers. To see this pandemic take place.... with little guidance and compliance.... and the risk to sisters brothers, healthcare, family is devastating... There are no words.... I pray you guys are all safe and we get through this.
Marie, my tears come from a place of love, you and your family embraced us, accompanied us to Milwaukee to say goodbye to Isaiah. Matts steady-fastness to be forever present. I can still see Matthew waiting in emergency of Mayo. You reading the Bible at his bed side. Matt insisted on staying and you guys accompany us to Milwaukee. Thank you! God willing we will be there for Matts wedding. I dont cry all the time probably rarer but when it comes to you, Isaiah I do and it may be months or just a few times a year but your always in my heart and daily thoughts. The core of my cry and tears Isaiah.
Thank you for keeping us in prayer and we continue to pray for your family. Im looking forward to Matthews wedding. Matt is always so charming and absolutely funny. Its the funny, charming, steady-fast the wit, compassion and caring of people like your family, Isaiahs friends and my family that really helps with this journey.
Thank you. Monica, Willie, Alexis, Gino, Jenny and Christian. ❤

Hi Isaiah
It has been 13 years since your death. You are missed terribly and I often wondered what you would be like if you were here today. I do know you would be handsome, loving, a ladies man and still have that sarcasm. I also know you would be successful and would have lots of money, because thats what you often talked about. Im not sure if you would be married or have kids because you enjoyed life! You loved your family and would do anything for them, youve proved that a number of times! Im glad you were my sarcastic and handsome nephew. I love you dearly and you will always! Please continue to watch over our family here on earth and in heaven!

Im sorry for your loss. Malachi Isaiah what a beautiful name who is now an angel. Isaiah would be honored to be remembered and honored. Its really difficult for me to find the right words to express. In a few days, it will be 13 years since Isaiah left us. I read every comment as soon as posted right away and I still take time to gather myself, my thought before I post. I may go months without sadness or crying out of no where I still cry when I post. Im so honored that Isaiahs family and friends have never forgotten him. The loss of Isaiah, I manage every day , I still laugh, keep active as I can but I still miss him. My heart will absolutely always have an empty hole, unfulfilled spot for him but I too continue for my family. Life for me is not perfect but I do my best to enjoy each day and try to find gratitude, purpose, and pleasure in each day. Yes, I still have grumpy moments but I have to seek happiness even if its just having quiet moments to reflect internalize and mediate. I know this is almost unheard of with a 1 year old. I cried a lot when Isaiah passed away. I cried so much my daughter called me a crybaby on more than one occasion. Imagine that? Your daughter sounds like you were blessed with a beautiful witty daughter. I hope some day I will get to meet her. Its such a beautiful blessing to see Isaiahs friends coming into their own marriage careers children and aging so gracefully so compassionately and really remembering us. Thank you for sharing and post pictures.
Stay safe!God bless you all!
Thank you Monica Charles

I can see he had an IV in his tiny hand is he well now? Please keep family healthy during COV19. Once this virus is contained, hopefully we can meet your family.
Thank you for sharing Camilo Isaiahs pocture. Isaiah would be so honored that his friends have not forgotten and his name sake is shared. What a beautiful moving tribute. Thank you

Isaiah,
It's been a long time since I've checked in on here and I apologize its taken so long, life was hard for awhile after I wrote you last.
A lot of loss including my son, Malachi Isaiah, who passed away the day he was born. His name was in honor of you and his cousin who passed as an infant as well. It was so extremely difficult but I pulled through and am doing so much better, by the grace of God.
Last year, 2 weeks before my 29th birthday and the day after Mother's day, I was blessed to have welcomed my daughter, Nolèa Reign, into this world. She is such an amazing blessing and I know you would have been her favorite! She just turned 1 and her sense of humor reminds me of you. So extra goofy and playful.
No matter how much time passes I'll always remember that goofy, playful side of you and how you'd make everyone smile. You are truly missed my friend.
❤❤❤

Isaiah,
I know it's been quite a few years since I've written to you, but there isn't a day that goes by that I don't think about you.
Whether you know it or not, you were the honorary best man at my wedding, and I wanted to introduce you to my son- who without a doubt, would have known you as his favorite uncle.
Camilo Isaiah Thompson- Born July, 2nd 2020. I'd like to think that he waited until July so that he could share something with you. As much as I always dread this time of year, I can now feel a sense of happiness because MY Isaiah carries your name. I love you brother. I promised to never forget you and I promise that you still mean the world to me.

Isaiah,
Today you Are spend Fathers Day with Grandad. Im certain you both are embracing. After a long absence of not being with you, Isaiah, Im certain Dad set aside his tough exterior and words that he taught you at an early age. As Grandad often extended his hand stating Isaiah men shake hands (not hug). Dad showed great affection with genuineness, authenticity of self, nurturing, discipline, and always love, sometimes tough love. I believe sometimes my sheer determination and perseverance, I got from Dad. My inability at times not to back down from dad. My self esteem mom and dad. Dad I feel truly blessed to have had you in my life and childrens lives. You really filled a huge void for them with their dad gone too soon. I often felt like I watched you grow Dad from a young man to a senior man. Its truly a blessing to share as many years with you as we have. I can recall history lessons I learned and some of them continue to Reverberate today.
Dad I love you and I wish you Happy Fathers Day,
Love Monica Willie and Alexis

Isaiah,
Happy 32nd Birthday!!!! I know you're celebrating with Granddad, Uncle Bob, Aunt Mattie, Aunt JessaLee, Aunt Juanita and relatives You didn't know as well such as Uncle Joe who will be laid to rest today. Please let them know we love and miss them.
I pray on your birthday you will share blessings of your heart especially since you were blessed from the spiritual gifts of so many of our relatives. I know Granddad is holding you close. At an early age, Granddad often said Isaiah men don't hug, they shake hands. I some how know because Granddad is taller, older and with more wisdom, has you tucked close, tight and has his arm embraced around your shoulder and walks with you closely tucked to his side. I know he has put that hand shake aside to hold you. I know Granddad slips a kiss on your cheek because he loves you too. Dad for me, Grandad for you often put that discipline face on, that tough exterior but he had a soft spot for all of his. Most people rub their pets not dad, he'd pat them like an Afro, putting the hair into place. I'd laugh because Pooh and Zeebe (dogs try and get him to rub by gently thrusting their head under his hand). Dad would still pat them like trying to put an Afro mane into place. Dad's love was just as profound and deep and Grandma. He just didn't hug he shake because the shake represented discipline, a man of his word, discipline before affection but his love was deeper than his words. Many of your lessons of of childhood, adolescence, work and hard work were ratified there daily at the side of Granddad. It was rare you heard no from your grandparents. They'd often say Isaiah you can do this if you do this, work on that. Your adolescent years you always wanted to spend summer with them and at the tender age of 19 you were no different. I know on your birthday you embraced and love by many in Heaven. You were an old soul who loved our older relatives. They all had stories to share about you because you insisted upon being Grandma's side kick. Mom often stated how you would go to her when you met her at a year old and eventually she could get rid of you. At three you learned how to dial phone numbers. You new tool of the phone meant you never had to be more than a phone call away. Twenty weekend calls followed by an occasional return call to me when I awake. If Isaiah calls one more time! I'm going to come over and rip phone out of wall!,. Well thank you baby!
Isaiah please hug and kiss every once! We love and miss you all! Keep us in prayer as we keep you in prayer and memory!
God bless you all. I pray we all will get through this pandemic crisis. Stay home, keep distance, manage space and pray for cure and those caring for ill. Shelter down now. ❤ Charles Family

Isaiah/ Dad,
I often spend quiet time listening.... Waiting... Reflecting.... On the time, we spent together and how you both shaped my life, our families lives. I reflect on you two connecting in your new life and the excitement of meeting again to start a new journey.
I've heard the Lord speaks to you in mysterious ways. I know I witnessed and I believe. I too know you will here your loved ones voices in dreams, memories and you both are etched in the daily beat of every beat of my heart and the beat of our family. Although Dad and Isaiah, your not her in the physical, you remain in spirit.
On Alexis's birthday, I took her to Dairy Queen for one of her request. I sent her in with cash. Alexis returned with a dollar marked where is George? Grandad had the nickname George. Alexis and Dad hadn't visited the site stamped on dollar and saw and recorded its location events. Alexis and Dad laughed and joked about it many years ago. Alexis received that stamp dollar with
web site reference only once before with Dad many years ago. Once Alexis received this dollar in change, she immediately came to the car and mentioned how she had gotten Granddaddy's dollar and it has his nickname. I told her, Granddad is thinking of you and with you in spirit on your birthday.
I cannot share enough memories of Dad. When Dad became ill, and was dying, all I could do was reflect on all the years, we spent together, how he is intrinsically webbed into every piece of fabric of my life from a day old until he left this world. Dad and Isaiah, we love and miss you. We feel blessed to have spent time and shared deep love, giving and meaning beyond words of our lives. Love Monica & family

Isaiah... it's been 12 years since your death and almost 2 months since your grandfather's death. We have lost 2 important figures in our lives and it's shocking, saddens me, but I can say praise God because I know where you are, who is taking care of you and that you both are at peace. I cherish the memories and miss you terribly. But I also know God needed you more! He no longer wanted you to suffer and have to deal with the cruelty of this world.
Rest on nephew and daddy. I know and look forward to seeing you both soon! Continue watching over this family!!

It has been 12 years since you physically left us. Although I rarely journal anymore, youre not forgotten.
At my age, Ive learned to live like you did at 19. What I learned from you is to never take a day for granted, to really live, and enjoy the moment. We can live in the complexity of world or yet we can seek sunshine and evolve.
Ive learned to enjoy the time and seasons of life, friendship and growth. Just as the teenager in you, dress, laugh, and live life without what others think of your style, I too have learned such yet, at the same time I will be respectful and expect such in return.
Since you passed away, Im often criticized by some because I dont mourn or post in their way. Im living and loving my way. Im the same mom I was 12 years ago as I am today, my love for you will never change.
Love Mom

Isaiah,
I take a moment to remember and reflect upon our life together. I'm grateful to for all the memories big and small things we've shared in life. I remember your resilience and tenacity to push on, strive and soar. I'm very proud of your selfless ways. Your ability to give in life just as you did in death. I'm proud how you made the decision to donate organs. Because of you Isaiah, other families got to have several more Christmas days with their families. I miss you today and always,
Merry Christmas!
Love Mom, Willie, and Alexis

Isaiah,
I felt honored to share your memories with everyone. It was a beautiful evening. The weather held up. The temperature barely 100 with cloud overcast and humidity. It was beautiful not the usual 110 with no cloud in the skin and no protection from sun. The weather was great. Alexis and I drove up. Careful to get a spot near the basketball court where you liked to play.
Alexis dragged along the cooler with light snacks, Gatorade, cookies, apples, and cheese sticks. We left balloons in the car awaiting guest. Even now, I still look for resemblance of you on the court and park. I get heart felt to see young men your age. I'm joyed to see friends and family growing planning careers family and still sharing memories of you.
Shortly after our arrival Wendy, Kevin, Maya, and Isaiah arrive. We sit down talking. Next, Willie arrives too. We are all drinking water. A young man I can see off in the distance is looking so intense. I could not tell if he was looking beyond us. I felt he was harmless and non imitating. He continued with his intense look. I thought he was searching for a friend in a moderately swift stride he continued towards us. Wendy had opened a bottled water and taken small sip and placed it down. Before we knew it, he grabbed Wendy's water, she had just slipped out of and began drinking the water and quickly turned and walked away in the direction he came from. Willie gently yelled, we have more waters. He walked away and never looked back. He was a beautiful young man who did not say a word; he just took cool water downed and never looked back.
Shortly there after, Jenny, Gino, and Christian arrived. We talked for a little longer. The basketball cleared shortly there after. We shared memories, prayers, and released balloons. The calls and gather really made for a beautiful day. Thank you all. I know some didn't call but we we're in thoughts and prayers. I thank you. God bless you all.
I could not get young man out of my mind. He was not verbal. His visit intense quick and brief. He may have been between 16 and 17 and never spoke a word. He came in a grey minivan with a group of young men of different ages and races. He was the only one who did not get in on basketball game with them. They could have stayed not even 30 minutes as the sun began to set the basketball cleared out and we came into your space. I always feel like you are with me.
Isaiah we miss and love.

Isaiah,
Today I woke up and you were the first person on my mind. I was thinking, how do I honor your memory? Yesterday, we had dust storm, wind, and then rain and lighting. It took me back to July 10, 2007 when we were at Mayo and prior to doctors taking you off ventilator to test, to see if you could breathe on your own. I remember as team of doctors and family we stood around your hospital bed sharing memories of you. Next, with a clear night, through your vivid dark sky window, there was a massive lighting storm, with no rain. The next thing we all knew. We were in total darkness. You could virtually hear the power being sucked out of the room as the machinery began to shut down and total darkness filled the room. With the power out and backup generator had not kicked him. Through that moment, as heavy as our hearts were, and not even having the ability to know for a long time, how we would cope moment by moment, to even a life time without you. The silence of your voice, your presence is and was indescribable. Back to lighting, I felt it was your last joke. The hoopla, your grand departure. You left when you were ready not went man declared it but when God called.
I still have that yellow shirt from the day July 7, 2007. When you went in to cardiac arrest I was a total mess, mentally and physically. During that time, I witnessed my only ever out-of-body experience. I stood over my body dressed in yellow shirt and tan capris. The me in the yellow shirt was calmer and giving cues to the me over you in the white Tshirt in her husbands blue jean shorts and white t-shirt. I still have that yellow shirt in my closet. I still glanced and touch it but I don't think I've even brought myself to put it on again.
Yes, Isaiah it has been 11 years today. You would be 30 not 29. I said yesterday 10 years it has been 11. Your mother miscalculated or stated incorrectly. Often, I'm aware of anniversary of your passing.
Why had I procrastinated? I want and try to be in an upbeat mood so sometimes I do procrastinate. At times, it seems like yesterday and other times, it seems like a lifetime ago. I woke up thinking, Isaiah what would you look like at 30? I realized you passed away at 19 and today is the 11th year. I don't journal as much. Needless to say, I read every entry. Thank you all for remembrance and beautiful entries. Today, your date of passing, is great nephews birthday, Trenton's birthday. I believe he will be three. You would have loved the three Ts and Jordan who has your namesake. Trenton serenaded me not too long ago. I could hear him sing in his toddler voice everyday. I can't share enough of beautiful memories and support. Thank you and God bless you.
Isaiah rest in peace.
Love Mom and family

Hi friend!! We've been talking about you a lot lately and miss you! Our Isaiah just turned 4 last month and he's doing great! He's obsessed with baseball and is playing tee ball and loves watching and playing basketball just like you! He's a smart and goofy kid and keeps us on our toes. We've really started to share more stories with him about you now that he's old enough to understand and our favorite one is how you brought us all together. He knows You as our best friend up in the clouds looking over us all the time. He says he likes talking with you like he talks with Jesus. :) His sister maya is now one and half and she's just a spit fire. Kevin and I are going on five years married on the 25th and 11years together. We thank god everyday he blessed us with a special person like you that brought us together. We will forever be grateful for you! we love and you miss you!

Dear Isaiah and Bri,
I've tried to live each day to the fullest, finding meaning and value in simple daily things such as quiet walk with nature, reading, and spending precious time with family. Not a day or night goes by Isaiah, I don't think of you. I feel inspired and heart-warmed by all the compassion shown and demonstrated by so many people, many I only met for the first or second time after your passing. When I meet someone with your name I instantly feel heart warmed. Often, when I hear from or see your friends it's often bittersweet because your not there but beautiful to know you're loved and remembered. Thank you all for remembrance and support. When I see you guys married, getting older gracefully, married, children, and searching for your footsteps in life, I feel assured and proud too. I feel honored and blessed you shared with me and my family.
Dear Bri,
When you shared your struggles with epilepsy, I immediately prayed you never experience another seizure. I pray you not feel will defined by epilepsy and limitations but inspired to know God has his hand upon you and defines you as chosen. I learned so much about resilience, stamina, and not giving up from Isaiah. I felt as a parent of Isaiah, I learned sometimes more from him than maybe I taught him and I continue to learn even today. Isaiah may not have gotten a cure or management of his illness however I pray Bri you will. I pray you may feel comfortable to come out of shadows and share the journey. Read all you can about epilepsy everything from diet support groups and dealing with epilepsy.
Maybe we can meet in the near future. I would like to meet with friends and family in July 2018 to remember Isaiah.

Isaiah,
It's crazy to think you'd be 30 this year! I will be 28 in May... time flies. I know it has been some time since I have written to you but for some reason memories of us in high school keep coming to me in my dreams. What's weird is even though in my dreams, we're back at Horizon, I see you as a grown man and not as you were when you departed this earth. Every time I wake up from these dreams I immediately talk to God and pray for your soul and your family. I always get the feeling it's you letting me know your okay and your soul is still growing in heaven.
I know we connected on earth because of our seizures and you were the only friend I told about mine, but I finally confided in another friend about it since you've been gone. I know you'd be proud. Even though I've been struggling with them, it's nice to have someone to talk to about it but I truly miss our conversations because you knew how hard it was first hand. You were a great friend and I'll keep those memories with me until we meet again.
I hope you know you are still loved and missed greatly and thought of often❤

And bring you home again.

Isaiah,
I'm blessed to know I was chosen to be your mom. Tomorrow would be your 29th birthday. Happy birthday! You're tenacity and resilience continues through organ donation, your name sake, and memories. Not a day goes by I don't think of you, Karl (double lung recipient), three others who receive the gift of your organs, Wendy and Kevin (God united in marriage), their son Isaiah who carries your namesake, Marcus (childhood friend), Matt and Marie (whom are like my family). When you meet people who do the extraordinary and you feel blessed in knowing and be graced to share space with them. I can say and feel blessed by nearly 100 or more of friends and family like them still today.
Although I may not always reach out with phone, text or letter you all are in my thoughts and prayers.
God Bless you all.
Happy 29th Birthday.
Love mom, Willie, and Alexis

Hey Brother,
I recently read about a celebrity suffering from epilepsy & reminded me of one our special moments.
I remember when I had just moved to Phoenix & we had a serious talk about how you could be healed from epilepsy.
So we googled "celebs who beat epilepsy." Several names came up, but the one we could identify with was "Prince."
The article stated "Prince eventually outgrew" his epilepsy with time & prayer.
Now, "Prince" and yourself are both healed from any sickness.
I thank God for our time together & your in a better place.
Thanks for the beautiful memories.
Miss you!
Love Brother Gino

I can reflect on those wonderful memories to get me through day to day.
I can't thank everyone enough for supporting you and our family in life and after you left the world we knew in life together.
We love and miss you and honor your memory.

Miss you so much! Spoke to Grandma, Danille, Andrea, and Uncle T. They all reminded me of you, as we have so many fond meomories with them from when were kids.
Mom called and sang me the "happy birthday" song, so the annual tradition from our Mom continues..
Thanks for the good meomories.

Isaiah,
It's been nearly seven years since you passed away. I look back at your gifts, your accomplishments, and your friends. Wow!
Isaiah when your life ended, you decided in the event of my death, I want someone else to have a chance. Because of your your decision, four people got a second chance at life. A gentleman within weeks of death, has lived many years and is still living because of your decision. Wow.
Isaiah I have saw young people give of themselves and do extraordinary things. Isaiah you will never have children. Yet, two children carry your namesake. You will never have a wedding but you were honored in the union of love and marriage. I thank each and every one of you. I saw Marcus for first time in six years. I've seen Matt yearly since you passed away. I know the gentleman who received your lungs wanted to meet me, I was not ready because the emotions and the loss was overwhelming. I wanted to commit myself also to raising my daughter. That whole first year, it was emotionally difficult being a mother. Smiles did not come easy, reading to her, and giving her all she needed I could not do. I could not give 100 percent. I could not or did not have Alexis tested to start kindergarten early because I felt I would not be able to support her the way she needed it. I did what I could to endure. Time and all the precious gifts of prayer,remembrances, dedication, visits has made this one of the absolutely best Mother's Day ever. Each one of you have added a stitch to mend a bruised heart. God bless you all. I'm patience and resilient because of all you. Happy Mother's Day to all of you moms. Thank you to everyone who has touched Isaiah and my lives. God bless you all! Thank you!

Isaiah,
Toni Morrison talked about how we look at a baby. The glow we have and the facial expression we have for a baby when they are toddlers and babies are doing cute things or sleeping. I loved how Toni said we should always have that glow and warmness for them (our children) even in the teen years and throughout our children's lives. The glow should be there when there pants are sagging, that D on the report card, and so on. At times, it may be difficult after our children have done something we may not approve of. Every child needs to see and feel that glow of warmness everyday and throughout the life span. I felt the love of my parents throughout my life span. Because of the glow, I was able to tackle tough obstacles. Because of that nurturing resilient glow, I was able to endure. At times, I look at Alexis and I saw to myself. "Gosh, that hair is a mess!" Yes, I let it go probably too often because it won't matter in three, five, or ten years.
Often we are working hard in our careers and trying to climb the corporate ladder, but taking each day to commit special time to our children. After nearly seven years, I need to commit a little more time to your sister remember every day is important in shaping her future. I take those moments but need to continue.
Isaiah I feel honored to be your mom. I'm doing well. My life forever shaped by knowing and losing you. Love Mom

My words cannot convey my honor and most importantly Isaiah's honor and his privilege, in knowing you named your son, Isaiah after him. Isaiah would be honored as I am! I want to hold your beautiful baby and snuggle him. I want to personally embrace your family. I would love to have lunch with you in the very near future and meet Isaiah.
Wendy thank you for honoring Isaiah. It's not often I'm at a lost for words. I can't wait to meet you, your husband, and Isaiah. One of God's greatest gifts, is the birth of a child..
Thank you! God bless you and your family!
