So sorry to hear about Isaac! My kids would always get excited on our drive home when they saw Isaac rolling down the street in his wheelchair, opening the car window to scream,"hi Isaac!" He always had a smile for us. He will be missed.

I want to send you my condolences. My memory: Almost every time I would come to Seattle to visit my parents, I would at least once see Ike out in the neighborhood on his scooter and often he would stop for a chat. May your memories bring you comfort.
