Hi everyone… my name is Brent Korte, and I knew Isaac very little. I’m a customer of Cruise America and I always worked with Isaac when renting. Most recently we rented an RV from him in February, I was hoping to meet him when we returned it but he had passed while we were on our trip.
I’m writing today to let you know that Isaac‘s reach was far, and the work that he did he was able to provide myself and my family with memories we will have for a lifetime. He was always professional and easy-going on the phone… In fact I asked for him after the first rental as I knew he would be honest and easy to work with.
The pictures below were taken at the Grand Canyon… This is a reflection of how Isaac‘s work spread joy to others… Including two of my children in the picture who were nine and seven at the time. The final two pictures are a bit of a story… dad (myself) failed to operate the RV wrong resulting in a bit of a smelly catastrophe at Grand Canyon national Park. The depiction below and corresponding story were made by my daughter. This has become one of our funniest and greatest family memories… Again, I think that without Isaac we wouldn’t have experience such a funny and excellent memory.
Good luck to you all, if there’s anything I can impart is that Isaac was a good human being… He made an impact on my family, in spite of not really knowing him. His memory and legacy lives with all of you now… And perhaps myself and my family who will remember him and all of our upcoming road trips and the impact he made in our lives.

My beautiful younger brother was killed yesterday (2/13/2021) riding to work in Mesa AZ. He was killed instantly. He died happy.
I met Issac when I was 2. We were the middle children and really stuck together in childhood and early adulthood. We lived together with our significant others at the time and our kids. My memories of my brother are endless. I want to say we had a fantastic bond that hit bumps but we always came out the other end loving each other.
My brother had a happy bubble and was very protective of it. I am so honored to have been a part of his life and in his happy bubble. We talked at least once a week and we'd laugh and laugh. It was almost a competition to see who could make who laugh the most. He was a happy, beautiful man. Issac had a zero tolerance policy for anyone or anything trying to pop his happy bubble. He didn't need money for his happiness. I am trying to say his priorities were happiness and then money. He was so intelligent and could have been anything but he declined the pressure and stayed true to him.
It paid off. He had the most beautiful fiancee, his slice of happiness, his sons and his granddaughter. She will miss out the most by his absence and I am heartbroken for her. Issac met Carol-Anne and she truly was his partner. She loved him and treated him so good. She can cook like you wouldn't believe. But he loved her for her. For who she is as a human being. They lived a fun life Pre-Covid for sure. Concerts and dinners and stuffs. He liked plants and good things. They were best friends and my heart breaks for Carol-Anne.
Above all Issac enjoyed music. He really enjoyed finding a album he knew someone would appreciate. He presented me one time a Cheap Trick album. It was those little kind acts of love I will surely miss.
Issac was sentimental and would try to find old pictures and stuff. He was sort of the family historian. He was always surprising me with pictures of the past.
I am grieving the loss of a beautiful human who loved me. My parents are devastated. This isn't how life works. You don't just have 4 kids one day and then 3. Issac kept all of us together.
He was charismatic. All my life Issac was a happy beautiful human.
I am really mad at him because he wont turn 50 and I was so looking forward to that special day. He also met my deceased and best est favorite nana before me and that is simply no fair. I am angry at the driver who killed him. I want to see the driver spend time in jail thinking about my brother and what they took from the world. Mostly I am simply sad and crying. My brother is gone.

Issac loved music. He had a little 35 turn table and we would blast Queen in his bedroom. Music made Issac happy.

Issac was the happiest kid I knew. He'd be riding on his big wheel just cruising the park in Angels Camp. One time Issac and asked to play outside and our mom said if it started to rain we had to come in. Well, it started to rain and I told Issac we had to go in. Well Issac was having none of that and proceeded to roll off on his big wheel. I told on him. Of course I did, I was 5. Mom and I went to our porch to call Issac home. An older gentleman was backing out of the neighbors driveway and my mom and I were screaming. I think his name was Mel. My poor mom and I watched Mel back over my little brother on his big wheel. Talk about traumatic.
Our dad bought a house in Columbia and spent years landscaping it to his liking. This gave Issac, Jacob and I tons of dirt piles to play with our cars in. It was awesome.
In Columbia we would walk to the public pool which was a mile away. We really wanted to swim and would go with no shoes on. We were crazy and I remember Issac and I throwing our towels ahead of us so we could put our feet on them for a minute before throwing it forward again. It took forever to get home but we didn't care. Summers in Columbia were the absolute best.
One episode I'll never forget is when we were in trouble. It was a Saturday morning and we had chores to do. She came into the living room and turned off our cartoons. The gall of our mother. So Issac and I ran upstairs in my room I shared with our sister Lynda. Issac and I know mom is mad. We know she is getting the belt or a wooden spoon or something. We were giggling and we decided I would paint 666 on his forehead, in purple eye shadow, for shits and giggles. To see what would happen. So mom's yelling and him and I are conspiring to give her a heart attack. Mom was raised Catholic. We knew this would do something but what? So mom is yelling at us and she starts coming up the stairs with a belt or something, Issac and I come out of the room and she sees us at the top of the landing. It stops her dead in her tracks. Issac and I laughed and laughed. Mom turned around without saying anything and left. She later tells me she was cracking up. Issac and I were the middle kids and best friends growing up.
I had to move my freshman year. He had a few years when I was living in Westminster without me but had great friends. Lynette, Dawn, Mark, Jess, Juliette Danny and more.
I came back my junior year. Issac then met my best friend Denise Mulliken and was smitten. I remember walking home from Columbia, the 3 of us, and a random orange cone was in the road. Issac picked it up and wore it like the witch of the east. So funny but I believe Denise fell in love with him then.
I love Denise and the 3 of us have a bond forever. No matter what, the 3 of us are connected and Denise will always be family.
While Denise and Issac were cultivating their relationship Lynda and I had sons, Daniel and Jimmy. Issac, Denise, myself, Lynda, Jimmy and Daniel all moved in together in Jamestown. Lynda didn't really live there, she was busy. Issac was loved. Issac loved us.
Issac and Denise welcomed Aubrey in that house. Issac already loved Jimmy and Daniel and was amused by them yet Aubrey took his breath away. Issac was the proudest dad ever.
One time I needed to stay in a shelter because life happens. Anyway, Issac picked me up and said get your stuff, you are not going back there. When I was down Issac was there. I'm not saying he was the only one who cared, I am saying he is the only one who said no, you are not living this way. That was Modesto.
Our next stop living together would be 910 Oak Street in Sonoma.
Issac and Denise welcomed Zach and again Issac was in love. He loved his family.
We were all living together in a huge home in Sonoma. When Zach was born the hospital treated Issac and Denise to a fabulous dinner with apple cider for pretend champagne. That was special to Issac.
I have to tell you about one Easter eve we had. So yeah, we had a few Mickey's and started playing with the kids Easter basket toys. Jacob was running around the back yard in Sonoma trying to get the kites to fly. It was the 4 of us, Denise, Jacob, Issac and myself. It was just a fun memory. We had to wake up the next morning hungover af pretending to be searching for eggs and baskets. Good times.
