Philip E. Isett
Carl Hawkins Isett (born March 7, 1957) is a Certified Public Accountant from Lubbock, Texas, and a Republican former member of the Texas House of Representatives. First elected in 1996, Isett announced on December 18, 2009, that he would not be a candidate for an eighth two-year term in the Republican primary held on March 2, 2010. He indicated that he would instead focus on his United States Navy career. He resigned his seat in the summer of 2010, and it remained vacant until a special election was held in conjunction with the November 2, 2010, general election. Both contests were won by Isett's fellow Republican John Frullo, who is also a Lubbock accountant.
Isett was born in Breckenridge, the seat of Stephens County in north central Texas, and was reared in Massachusetts and El Paso. His father, Dr. Philip E. Isett (born April 24, 1934), resides in Edmond, Oklahoma. His mother, the former Lu Nell Hawkins (1934–2006), a native of Wichita Falls, Texas, and a Lutheran authored two Christian books, Jonathan Oh Jonathan and Color Me Legitimate. At the time of her death Lu Nell Isett, who had worked in the field of health administration, was residing with her husband in Edmond. She is interred at Resthaven Cemetery in Lubbock.
Isett has three brothers: James Lyndsey Isett (born 1956) and wife, Cathy, of Moorpark, California, Bruce Edward Isett (born 1961) and wife, Julie Panter Isett, of Lewisville, Texas, and Daniel Mark Isett (born 1973) and wife, Christine Rosenthal Isett, of Alexandria, Virginia. A sister, Roxanne Evelyn Matlock (born 1964) and her husband, Brent Dale Matlock, reside in Amarillo. A second sister, Lourdes Isett (1955–2008), born in Mineral Wells, Texas, graduated in nursing from Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center in Lubbock and died at Baylor All Saints Medical Center in Fort Worth, where she had been employed in the care of transplant recipients.
