Holy Apostles Memorial

Servant of the Lord David (Isaacson)

David Edgar Isaacson, 82, of Bloomington, passed away peacefully Thursday, February 10, 2022, in his home surrounded by his family.

He was born July 17, 1939, in Rock Island, a son of Willard and Madeline Hansgen Isaacson. He married Janie Dikos on July 4, 1965, in Peoria.

Surviving are his wife; a son, Todd (Amber) Isaacson; a daughter, Holly (Bryan) Lowery; eight grandchildren; eleven great-grandchildren; a brother, Tom (Nancy) Isaacson; a sister-in-law, Stella Thompson; and a brother-in-law, Harry Hoyt.

He was preceded in death by his parents; a sister, Gay Isaacson Hoyt; and his daughter-in-law, Angela Isaacson.

David earned his engineering degree at Bradley University and was a proud veteran of U.S. Marine Corps. He was a member of Holy Apostles Orthodox Church and the NRA. With his blue-collar blood and white-collar mind, he founded and led Isaacson Construction where he always displayed tenacity, strength and dependability. David had a love of the history of his country and a natural gift for teaching others his trade. While his expectations of his work family were high, he was also quick to show compassion and generosity. A man who placed family above all else, David will be most remembered for the love he showed his wife, children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren.
