Isaac was a student of mine at Central. I remember him very fondly. What a light in the world. I am so very sorry to hear of his passing. Praying for your family and friends.

Remember how Isaac took me and 3 other guys to the trip from Estes Park to Fort Collins and then to Denver. Isaac was the best American person that I ever met. He always was smiling and opened to other people. Thanks him for everything. It was a great summer and it was an honour for me to work and live with Isaac in the same place. Unfortunately, I will never see him in Europe. But He’ve done what he’ve done and nobody can change it. Rest and peace my friend.
