In Memory of Izzy: Support for Mindy and Kids

Donation protected
Hi, my name is Nicole Colvin recently , a classmate and friend unexpectedly lost not only her fiancé but her best friend and father to her children.

On behalf of Jenna Fieser, Courtney Odom, Angela Runge-Wurtz, Becky Borchardt-Wake, Allison Phillipp and the class of 2004 we want to do anything we can to help Mindy and her family in this time of grieving.



On November 5th at 1:30pm Mindy lost her best friend. Her true partner in life. Her future husband, father of her children, her protector, rock, the love of her life and soulmate.

On Saturday, October 26th Izzy had a major heart attack after completing his second wrestling match at a tournament in Bloomington, Illinois. He was rushed to a nearby hosptial where they had to put 3 stints in his heart. During all of this his kidneys failed as well. He was put on dialysis for his kidneys and his heart ended up with 40% damage.

They med flighted him to a hospital in Wisconsin 2 days later because there was nothing further they could do for him at the hospital he was currently at.

While at the hospital in Wisconsin he got pneumonia, as well as 2 other respiratory infections. He was on a ventilator since he arrived at the hospital. His heart was able to heal a bit to 25% damage and things were looking better.

On 11/04 he went into cardiac arrest again and his heart stopped working on and off for about 30 minutes. He was then taken into surgery and put on a heart and lung bypass to give his body a break in hopes healing both better/faster. The surgery went well and he was taken back to his room in the ICU.

Today, Izzy passed from the damage caused to his body from the heart attack he suffered 11 days ago.

Izzy's passing is a terribly tragedy and for most unfathomable to even think about. In the wake of Izzy's passing, he leaves behind two beautiful daughters and his wife to be Mindy.

Medical bills, funeral expenses, and all other things that come with raising a young family will start coming in and at times be overwhelming. We are asking that if you can donate please do, if you cant that is okay too. We are also working on a meal train.

All funds raised will be going directly to Mindy and his two beautiful girls.
