Robert Joe Ison

     "Country"

6/03, 1949 - 3/13, 2025

Served our country as a U.S. Veteran of the Vietnam War. Member of the San Mateo County Pipe Fitters Union No. 467. 

Born in Kentucky. Lived in Idaho. Died in Arizona. Survived by children and grandchildren. Siblings and friends. More than a few ex-wives. 

Born into a world, the edge of Appalachia. A place to be survived. Loving, fair-minded, and downright plum Crazy. Highly intelligent with the most beautiful handwriting. Funny as hell and loved his weed. Meanest motherfu**** I ever knew.

Those who loved him found deep connection and warmth. He was truly one of a kind. May he find the peace in death he never found or could give in life. May we give this peace and grace to each other, now. Amen.
