John Carlos Isdith

It is with heavy hearts that we announce the unexpected passing of Mr. John Carlos Isdith due to an acute medical condition on Tuesday, December 10, 2024, at 6:15 a.m. in Cartagena, Colombia. He was 61 years old.

John is survived by his devoted father, Carlos Isdith; his three cherished children, Jonathan, Brittany, and Maria Emily Isdith; and his loving sisters, Marjorie, Julie, and Sandra. He was preceded in death by his beloved mother, Maria Lili, who passed away in May 2020.

John was a man with a big heart, known for his boundless generosity, tireless work ethic, and infectious love for people. He brought joy and energy wherever he went, often as the life of the party, leaving lasting impressions on everyone fortunate enough to know him.

His greatest legacy is undoubtedly his three children, whom he loved deeply and who brought him immense pride and happiness. Beyond his family, John found great fulfillment in his work as a heavy machine operator and builder. One of his proudest achievements was the construction of a beautiful five-story building in Williamsburg, Brooklyn a project he completed with the support of his parents. This building became not only a testament to his hard work and dedication but also a cherished family home, first shared with both his parents and later serving as a residence for his father after his mother’s passing.

John’s laughter, kindness, and radiant smile touched the hearts of many. He will be profoundly missed by all who knew and loved him, but his memory will forever remain a source of comfort and inspiration.

May he rest in peace.
