John Isitt Obituary
John had a lifelong love for knowledge. He pursued higher education and later returned to teach Biology as an esteemed alumni at Cal State Long Beach. He was a Health Economics & Outcomes Research (HEOR) professional with over thirty years experience in Biotech/Pharma, healthcare management, observational research, and medical research developing and executing strategic evidence generation plans with clinical trial and real world data, demonstrating product value for access and reimbursement. His sharp problem-solving skills and attention to detail earned him respect in every endeavor he took on.
More than anything, John was a man of adventure. He had an infectious love for life, travel, and exploration, embracing the world both near and far. He raced motocross in his youth. Later in life, his love for motorcycles was a cherished bond he shared with his son, Michael. Whether traveling internationally or enjoying the simplicity of a quiet day with his family, John's spirit was one of boundless enthusiasm and warmth.
John is survived by his wife, Hanna; son, Michael Isitt; sister, Sara Colmery; brothers, James Isitt and Benjamin Isitt; nieces, Gina Bosotina and Lisa Colmery; and grandchildren, Emily and Joshua. He was preceded in death by his parents, Marie and John Isitt; and his son, John Isitt.
John will be remembered for his warmth, generosity, and unwavering dedication to his family and friends. He had a heart of gold and a spirit that could light up any room. His memory will live on in the hearts of those who knew and loved him.
