Johnny Isakson

Johnny, a WF Dykes HS Atlanta graduate, always stood by America’s Veterans.
We knew this well, again and again, as he encouraged my business partner ,Ted Daywalt (also deceased), to continue forth with the vision of creating and expanding VetJobs, the nation’s leading job board for Veterans leaving tours of national service for return to a welcoming American workforce. All Veterans thank you, Johnny. You were special to us and you will always be remembered.

I extend my deepest sympathy to your family and pray that God will comfort you in the midst of your pain.

My condolences to the family for your loss. I was so honored to know Johnny and be able to call him friend! He set an example for everyone on how to live an honorable, compassionate and distinguished life while serving his country. We will certainly miss him but his legacy will carry on forever.

May your hearts soon be filled with wonderful memories of joyful times together as you celebrate a life well lived.

For many years, I worked with a wonderful lady who was a cousin of Mr. Isakson. She was so proud of him, and loved him so very much. I am truly sorry for this family’s loss.

My prayers are with you.

Sympathies to Johnny's family and loves... May you be comforted by cherished memories that you hold dear and the unfailing love of your heavenly Father.

May God comfort your hearts.

My deepest condolences to the Isakson family. May you find comfort
in your treasured memories of Johnny and May God continue to comfort you in the days, months and years ahead.

My condolences.

My heart goes out to your family. I met Johnny in 1986 when launching KNOWAtlanta magazine which showcased Atlanta to newcomers. No one could have been more helpful in giving me ideas of how the magazine might be constructed to help families moving to Atlanta. For over 20 years he was always welcoming and supportive.
He was a champion of our State and a lovely gentleman.
He will be missed.

Johnny was a great patriot and personal friend of my family. I grew up campaigning for him with my mom, Shirley Vennel. Those were some of the best memories of my childhood. Johnny took the time in his busy schedule in Washington to attend my mother’s funeral in 2010. I will always remember his kindness and willingness to help our family at such a difficult time. My prayers go out to Dianne and the rest of his family. He is surely surrounded by greatness in the heavens of our Father.

Johnny Isakson was in office when my Son, Adam became a Star Student. Will always remember how gracious he was.

Johnny and I have known each other for many years, he was a very inspiring person. From the days he was a branch manger for Northside Realty on Roswell Rd to the days he took over from Dad Ed, he was fair,honest and a gentleman. He served our state proudly and tried to work across the isle in government. He will be greatly missed.

Johnny was one of the VERY FEW politicians I have ever respected. He was a man of integrity and it was my good fortune to know him! RIP my good friend!

RIP Johnny.

Prayers for the Isakson family, so very sorry for your loss.

Johnny Isakson was a very kind and compassionate man. He helped my husband and I through a very difficult situation, Not only did he send letters are we have, but checked in frequently with us to see where we were going with OK. He and Senator Chambless were both incredible. My condolences to his family. He will be much missed.

Your service to politics will be remembered.

Sincere condolences to the Isakson family, may God be with you in your time of sorrow.

A wonderful family man who loved his country and its people. He got things done, and never forgot the people that he served. Thank you Senator Isakson for being an example for all Americans.

The Embassy of the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan in Washington DC extends its sincerest condolences to the Isakson family for the passing of former Senator and statesman, The Honorable Johnny Isakson.

The invaluable and enduring friendship he held with His Majesty King Abdullah II and Jordan over the years is a deeply cherished one. The memorable legacy he left behind on both domestic and international fronts will surely be a source of comfort for his loved ones. He will be sorely missed.

Our thoughts and prayers are with his family and all those who knew him during these most difficult times.

With sincere regards

I'm a U.S. Army Vietnam Veteran. I contacted Senator Isakson as Chairman of the Committee on Veterans' Affairs. I was concerned that changes being considered at the time could have adversely affected health care provided at VA Hospitals. I use the facilities at the West Haven CT VA Medical Center regularly, and I get excellent care. Senator Isakson's reply indicated that he took the time to read everything I wrote, shared my concern, and thanked me for providing input.
I'm very sorry for your loss.
Sincerely,
Tom Gibbons

My prayers and with the Isakson family during the holidays which are going to be a very difficult time.

Rest Johnny, until you hear at dawn,
the low, clear reveille of God.

Thank you for your service to this nation. Georgia Air National Guard.
