Pamela J. Isakov, 75 passed away peacefully February 24, 2021 at home surrounded by her family. Born in Akron, Ohio to Mark and Lucille (Stealey) Kavali, she was a lifelong area resident. Pam graduated from Ellet High School in 1964. In 1966 Pam married her high school sweetheart, Ken. This past January the couple celebrated their 55th wedding anniversary. Pam was a "domestic engineer" while raising her 2 children, Heather & Kenny. She was an avid golfer since age 12. Pam started golfing in a Goodyear Aerospace Junior Golfing League. She achieved the ultimate reward as a golfer, a "Hole in 1", not once but twice! The first Hole in One was at Mogadore Country Club, and the second was at Chenoweth Golf Course. She had the most generous heart, and a fun outgoing personality, Pam did not know a stranger. She was everyone's friend. Pam also enjoyed bowling, playing cards, socializing with her friends, detailing cars, attending her grandchildren's sporting events and spending time with her family.
Pam is preceded in death by her parents and brother, Mark (Herky) Kavali. She will be sadly missed by her husband of 55 years, Ken; children, Heather (Ron) Sanford, Kenny (Jessica) Isakov; grandchildren, Emma, Zach, Colton, & Lilly; brother, Ken Kavali; and all her nieces, nephews and countless dear special friends.
