Isiah K. Johnson

It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of Isiah Kelley Johnson, who departed this life on July 26, 2026, at the age of 28. Isiah was preceded in death by his adored sister, India Marie Doggett, whose memory he carried with him always. He is survived by his beloved mother, Kelly Howard, and his brother, Alijah Howard, as well as many other relatives and dear friends who will forever cherish his memory. 

Born on January 16, 1998, Isiah was a hardworking and dedicated young man who took pride in everything he did. He was known for his determination, a kind heart, and the genuine friendships he built throughout his life. When he wasn't working, Isiah enjoyed doing the things that brought him the most happiness. He loved traveling to different skate parks to skateboard, always looking for new places to ride and improve his skills. He also found peace in taking nature walks, using the quiet beauty of the outdoors to clear his mind and reflect. Isiah was an avid sports fan who especially loved cheering for the Los Angeles Lakers and his favorite player, LeBron James. Whether he was at a skate park, enjoying the serenity of nature, watching a Lakers game, or spending time with family and friends, Isiah embraced life's simple moments. He created memories that will be treasured forever. 

Though his life was far too short, Isiah's strong work ethic, adventurous spirit, and love for his family, friends, and favorite pastimes will never be forgotten. His gentle spirit, warm, humble heart, and the joy he found in the outdoors, sports, and friendships will continue to inspire those who knew him. 

The family asks that Isiah be remembered not for the day he left this world, but for the life he lived, the love he shared, and the countless memories he leaves behind. 

"Those we love don't go away; they walk beside us every day. Unseen. Unheard, but Always."

Visitation will be held on Friday, July 31, 2026 from 4-7PM at T.P. White & Sons Funeral Home (2050 Beechmont Ave., Mt. Washington).
