Adam E Isley

Adam E. Isley, 47, North Manchester, passed away November 30, 2023, at Parkview Regional Medical Center in Fort Wayne. The son of Max Isley and Brenda (Seibold) Wadkins, Adam was born in Wabash on May 3, 1976.

Adam was a 1994 graduate of Manchester High School, where he played baseball. His love for the game continued throughout his adult life, as he played fastpitch softball in Wabash for several years and coached his daughter’s travel softball team for ten years.

After graduating from Ivy Tech with an associate degree in engineering, Adam co-founded 3-G with his brother, Jason Isley, and best friend, Jason Miller. Together they created a successful business, but more importantly, an unbreakable brotherhood solidified between the three of them. On May 23, 2020, Adam married his soulmate, Rachel Elizabeth Probst. Though their time together was cut short, they shared more love in a few years than many do in several decades.

In every venture of Adam’s life, he possessed an extraordinary gift for making a positive impact on those around him. Others were drawn to his personality and sense of humor. Adam loved his family dearly; he was an incredible father, son, husband, and brother who only wanted the best for those he held in high esteem. Adam touched many lives, and his passing leaves a void that can never be filled.

The loving memory of Adam Isley will be forever cherished by his wife, Rachel Elizabeth (Probst) Isley, North Manchester; son, Addison Isley, North Manchester; daughter, Avery Isley, North Manchester; father and stepmother, Max and Eileen Isley, Akron; mother, Brenda (Seibold) Wadkins, Disko; brothers, Jason (Angela) Isley, North Manchester and Justin Isley, Akron; sister, Michelle (Aaron) Kosins, Warsaw; and best friend, Jason Miller, Warsaw. Adam was preceded in death by his maternal grandparents, James and Marjorie Seibold; and paternal grandparents, Noble and Reba Isley.
