In Loving Memory of Isaiah
Hi everyone,
We are incredibly grateful for the love and generosity shown to our family after the loss of Isaiah. Because of your support, we have nearly reached $25,000, which we now know is sufficient to cover memorial expenses and provide support for Shanice and Mitch during this time.
We have adjusted the fundraiser to reflect this updated goal.
While the fundraiser remains open for anyone who may still wish to contribute, please know that your support — whether through prayer, sharing, or donating — has already been more than enough.
Thank you for honoring Isaiah and surrounding his parents with such compassion and love. In today’s world, we truly need more of that.
On Sunday, February 15th, our family experienced the kind of heartbreak no parent should ever endure. Our precious Isaiah was tragically taken from us in a devastating hit-and-run accident, shattering our world in an instant.
His mother, Shanice, and his father, Mitch, are living every parent’s worst nightmare—mourning the unimaginable loss of their baby boy. His brother, Elijah, and sister, Aiyana, are grieving the loss of their brother, a bond that was taken far too soon. Isaiah was a joyful, curious, radiant soul who filled every room with laughter.
We are creating this GoFundMe to support his parents during this unimaginable time. No family is ever prepared for something so sudden and tragic.
Your generosity will help ease the financial burden of:
- Funeral and memorial expenses
- Time away from work as both parents grieve and begin to heal
- Counseling and emotional support services for the entire family
- Any additional needs during this painful and unexpected journey.
If you are able, any donation—big or small—means more than you know. If donating isn’t possible, please consider sharing this page to help us reach more people who may offer support.
Thank you for your love, prayers, and compassion as the family navigates life without their sweet Isaiah. Your kindness gives them strength during this heartbreaking time.
With gratitude,
Marie and family
