Owner of Rhode Island/Massachusetts tent company dies suddenly leaving behind young family

A local business owner has died suddenly.

According to his wife Angela, Middleborough’s Mehmet Isikgoz, owner of 10Tent & Event Rentals, has died after taking his own life after recent personal struggles.

Mehmet and Angela met in 2020, married later that year, and in 2021 welcomed their son, Kaan, into the world.

“We cherished life’s simple joys—watching movies, exploring good food, and spending time surrounded by family” Angela stated.

In 2022, Mehmet pursued one of his dreams and started the tent rental business, providing structures for events across New England.

“He took great pride in his work, always going the extra mile to ensure everything was perfect.”

Angela created a GoFundMe fundraiser for expenses.

“His absence leaves a void in our family, but we find comfort in the memories we created. We hope to honor his wishes by laying him to rest in his home country of Turkey, a place he held close to his heart.”
