Growing up Ismael was very intelligent, he would effortlessly pass classes with flying colors. In High School he even received his advanced regents diploma. As a child Ismael loved to play baseball, wrestle with his friends and draw. His creativity continued to grow and in his early teenage years, he became extremely passionate about music, rap to be exact. Ismeal, who was also known as Phat Eye, went on to pursue his dream and worked hard on his passion, created his own music and even performed live. He was recently working on a new album to release and he was also looking to get into fashion, by creating his own tee-shirts. While Ismael was born and raised Catholic, attaining all his adolescent sacraments, he did not hold the faith close. The last few years Ismael struggled with demons that ultimately he could not overcome. Although Ismael’s physical presence may no longer grace our lives, his spirit will continue to uplift us.Those who knew him will always cherish and hold on to the fun loving person he was. We will find our peace and solace knowing he is being looked after and taken care of by our departed loved ones. Until we meet again.
