Blake J. Isaac, age 64, passed away on Saturday, July 5, 2025 surrounded by his family and loved ones. Born in Cleveland Ohio, on April 8, 1961, to Jim and Annabel Isaac. On May 17, 1986, he was united in marriage to Lisa Isaac (Schwarze) who he affectionately called “that woman”. Lisa and Blake’s relationship was truly one of the class of ’79 greatest love stories.
Blake spent his many years in the work force creating lasting relationships with his vibrant personality. Blake was a light in every room that he entered, providing comfort to those who had the pleasure of meeting him. Those who worked with Blake throughout his life looked at him as a kind and genuine mentor to those who required guidence. He had a big personality, big style, and big cologne.
Blake loved John Lennon, BMWs, and dogs. He forever had a paint brush in his hand if it wasn’t already in the freezer. Blake enjoyed taking meaningful pieces and turning them into vibrant works of art as bright has his presence in any room. Traveling with Lisa and their children to various parts of the world to create lasting memories with the people he loved was what was most important to him. Blake’s joy in life was spending time with his family, making memories for them to remember over and over again with their love and enjoyment. He had a gift for nicknames, each one a sign of affection and his playful spirit.
Blake is survived by his Loving wife, Lisa Isaac (Schwarze); children, Maxwell Isaac (Ashlee), Gatsby Brusven (Jeff), and Riley Isaac; sisters, Cheryl Fraigun (Jay), Jamie Lawlor (Kevin); grandchildren, Everly, Lennon, Mason, Ledger, and Emersyn.
Peace
