Thomas Livingston Isbell, 81, passed away on December 10, 2022. He was preceded in death by his wife of 56 years, Patricia Ann Isbell, who passed away on November 11, 2018.
Tom ("Izzy") served with the 181st Fighter Group of the Indiana Air National Guard, retiring as a Senior Master Sergeant after 38 years of service. His colleagues remember him for his exceptional mechanical abilities and knowledge of jet aircraft maintenance and for being a respected friend, teacher, and mentor.

In retirement, Tom enjoyed gardening, landscaping, working in his garage fixing and building things, and spending time with his family at the lakefront home he designed and built himself. He enjoyed studying genealogy, and was a member of the Wabash Valley Genealogy Society for several years.
"Papa" Tom will be remembered by his family for his patience, intelligence, and kind heart, but most of all for the love and devotion he had for his wife, Patty, daughter, Lynette, and granddaughters, Jocelyn and Jillian Brink.

The family would like to thank everyone at Sycamore Manor and Willowbrook of Marshall for their kindness and support.

Samaritan Funeral Home was entrusted with arrangements.
