JERRY READ ISAACKS, born on January 16, 1955, was called to his heavenly home on February 25, 2023, at the age of 68.  He was a loving Husband, Father, Gamps and “Booger Butt”.

He graduated from Corrigan Camden High School. He was employed with the Texas Department of Corrections for several years and later went to work for Tandem Tank and Tower where he was currently employed.

He was a simple man who lived a simple life. His most precious possessions were his wife, his son and his grandchildren. He was a stern but gentle soul who made a huge impact on everyone he met. He was a Christian man, full of life who had a heart of gold. Every child he ever spent any time with became like one of his own. He gave each one of them a nickname and sometimes they gave him a nickname back (i.e. booger butt).  He was the kind of person who stood strong in his beliefs and never wavered from them. He believed in respect and being respected. He loved the outdoors and was an avid hunter and fisherman. He was pasture rider for many years for the Camden Hunting Club where he spent most of his free time.  It gave him great pleasure to ride through the pasture and visit with the members who he also called friends.  He got great pleasure in teaching all children, especially his grandchildren about the outdoors. He enjoyed summers on the lake with his fishing buddies and coming home telling all those good ole fishing lies. 

His family and close friends meant the world to him.  He did everything he could to ensure they were all safe and protected—neighbors included.

He was preceded in death by his parents.  Mother, Joan Read Rye and Father, Jerry Adrian Isaacks.

Survivors include his beloved wife, Waynette Isaacks, his son and daughter in law, J.W. and Rachell Isaacks, his daughter, Erika Brasuell and his daughter and son in law, Keri Ann and Jason Bowman. His grandchildren, Christopher Isaacks, Piper Isaacks, Averi Glass, Anaston Glass, Jacie Westbrook, Dylan Sturrock and wife, Mindy Sturrock, Savana Bowman, Drew Bowman and Journee Bowman. His great grandchildren: Sutton, Kohen, Steeley and Sutherland. His sister, Wendy Isaacks Jeans and brother, Mike Isaacks and wife, Darva Isaacks and numerous nieces and nephews.
