The son of father, Isaac Ikaaka Ha'o Jr., and mother, Dorothea Eleanor Toogood, Isaac was born December 13, 1945 in the US Territory of Hawai’i.
Isaac is survived by his eternal spouse: Kimberly; sons: Brian Lehman, Darren Peter, Kristopher-James Kalani, Isaac Ikaaka IV, Karl Kepano, Ian Kelekolio, Nicholas Anekelea; daughters: Keli'ipu'unani Ann, Kehau Elizabeth, along with many grandchildren, hanai children and hanai grandchildren.
He is also survived by his sisters: Stephanie, Brenda, Robin, Sharon, and Lori; brothers: Aaron Isaac Ha’o and Harold Hirakawa, all of Hawaii.
As a youth, Isaac was avid surfer and loved being in the ocean.
When he was 16 and before he became a member of the LDS church, he, along with his LDS cousins, donated time to work on the building of the Polynesian Cultural Center in Laie.
At age 18, Isaac was drafted to US Army service, serving in the Infantry during the Vietnam Conflict. Upon returning from service that earned him a Purple Heart, Isaac became an Officer. Following military service, Isaac worked as an automotive mechanic, owned his own vehicle servicing business, and earned academic degrees in information technology, secondary education and graduate social work.
Isaac was a teacher in middle school and maintained a social work practice counseling a range of people from troubled youth and dysfunctional family units to military veterans suffering from PTSD. His was a life of service: to God, country and family.
Isaac suffered for more than two decades with chronic and debilitating symptoms arising from his exposure to Agent Orange in Vietnam resulting in heart disease, diabetes and chronic pancreatitis. His passing was peaceful and in his home.
Isaac loved people and turned strangers to friends with a mere short conversation. His family members cannot go anywhere without meeting a friend of his.
