Isaiah Daniels

With profound sorrow and endless love, we announce the passing of Isaiah J. Daniels who left this world on 1/12/26 at the age of 28. Though his time here was far too short, the wonder, creativity, and kindness he brought into the world will live on in the hearts of everyone who knew him.

From the age of just six years old, Isaiah discovered a passion for magic that would shape the course of his life. What began as childhood curiosity quickly grew into extraordinary talent. Over the years, he became an exceptionally skilled magician, performing for audiences all around who were captivated by his creativity and presence. He designed and built many of his own illusions, using his remarkable abilities to create, weld, sew, and engineer the magic he performed. His originality and dedication earned him multiple local magic competition wins, though what mattered most to him was the joy and wonder he could bring to others.

Isaiah had a deeply creative spirit and a love for the mystical and imaginative. He was extraordinarily talented at building model trains and terrariums, carefully crafting intricate landscapes that reflected his artistic mind. He also loved nature, theater, and many animals including birds, reptiles, and his beloved dog, Benji.

Above all, Isaiah will be remembered for his gentle soul and kind heart. He had a way of making people feel welcomed and accepted, never judging and always offering warmth and a clever sense of dark humor. His friends often said he was “stardust”—someone who seemed truly magical and not quite of this realm.

Though he is gone far too soon, the magic he created—in his performances and in the lives he touched—will live on forever.

Isaiah is preceded in death by grandfather, Chet.

He is survived by his grandmother, Angela, step-grandfather, Monte, Mother, Daniela, Father Lewis, and his three younger siblings: Arianna, Joshua, and Jacob. He is also survived by his three aunts and uncle, Jennifer, Matt, Gabriella, Rosanna; and cousins: Michael, Nicolas, Anthony, Liam, Ayana, Jabari, Amayah, Raziyah, Cypher, and Malachi; as well as many other beloved family and friends. 

Though the stage lights have dimmed, his light will continue to shine, and the wonder he brought into the world will never disappear.

A celebration of life will be held on June 6^th, from 2:30-5:30pm at the Bozarth Mansion & Retreat Center.
