Isaiah Hernandez Obituary

Isaiah J. Hernandez LUBBOCK-Isaiah J. Hernandez jumped into the waiting arms of Jesus on March 16, 2013. He was diagnosed with muscular dystrophy, a disease that affects all voluntary muscles as well as heart and breathing muscles, since he was six weeks old. Isaiah was confined to a wheelchair since the age of three; however, he never complained about his challenge. Isaiah had a love for robotics and their movement, hoping to someday work on a robot. He was born June 6, 1999, in Lubbock. Evening services will be today, March 21, 2013, at 7 p.m. at Guajardo Funeral Chapels, 407 N. University Ave. Funeral services will be Friday, March 22, 2013, at 2 p.m. at Guajardo Funeral Chapels with Pastor Jesse Rincones officiating. Graveside will follow in Peaceful Gardens Cemetery under the direction of Guajardo Funeral Chapels. Isaiah attended Dunbar College Prep. He always enjoyed the excitement of MDA camp. He cheered his Dallas Cowboys and Texas Tech Red Raiders, and also enjoyed WWE. Survivors include his mother, Angela Prieto (Harry Mungia); sisters, Mariah Hernandez, Monique Villarreal and Mikayla Villanueva; maternal grandparents, Diana (Ruben) Castillo of Odessa and Paul (Diana) Prieto of Lubbock; and his paternal grandmother, Linda Hernandez. Isaiah was preceded in death by his father, Jose Luis Hernandez in 2004.

Isaiah was a smart young man with a lot of potential. I loved the way we had to keep him from speeding in the hallway in his wheelchair. He had a good sense of humor and a sly grin. He was fun to be around and the other students loved him. He made a lasting impression on everyone who knew him. I am so sorry to hear of your terrible loss. I will never forget him. Please know that you are in my prayers.
