My name is Derek Yamamoto, friend of Issa Ndiaye. Issa unexpectedly passed Monday May 12, 2025 at the age of 51. He was survived by his three children Patrick, Aïcha, Isaiah, mother Yacine, sister Kiné and brother Ibrahim.

I’ve known Issa for over 25 years.. Issa was one of a kind. He had a welcoming personality that could brighten any room. He made friends everywhere and those friendships would eventually turn into family. He built many close relationships within his workplace and community. When you met him, you felt like you’ve known him for years. He would never hesitate to say hi regardless of who you were. He was one you could count on to be real and full of heart. He will be missed dearly.

Due to his sudden passing, I would like to help the family with unexpected funeral expenses. No amount is too little and much appreciated.

Funeral Service information will be posted here when available.
