Isaac Burroughs

Isaac Lydale Burroughs was born on July 8, 1964 to the proud parentage of Sherman and Ruthie Burroughs.  The youngest of six children, he received his primary education from Evan E. Worthing High School in Houston, Texas.

Shortly after graduation, he enlisted in the United States Army and made a career of serving his country honorably.  Being brought up in the admonition of God, and the prayers of the righteous brought him through the service into retirement.

While serving in the Army, his travels led him to meet and marry Mellie Buncalan. On July 23, 1997, they were united in Holy Matrimony.  This union was blessed with a daughter; Asia Anne Marie Burroughs.

Their travels afforded them the opportunity to visit various countries. As a member of the Army, he was stationed in Germany from 1999 to 2002.

After 23 years of dedicated service, Isaac retired. His military experience gave him the foundation to be employed as a State Trooper and Postal Worker.  Following his passion for working on medical equipment, he took an assignment in San Jose, California.
