Bassam Aziz Issa

Bassam Aziz Issa, born in Hamat, Lebanon, resident of Pueblo, Colorado, went home to be with the Lord on August 13, 2025. Preceded in death by his parents, Aziz Issa and Gulnar Fadel Issa and wife, Emily Al-Nawar Issa. Survived by his son, Elias (Andrea); son, John; daughter, Julnar; grandchildren, Veronica, Audrey, and Simon Issa; and siblings, Ilham, Issam, Siham, Wissam, and Inaam. Bassam was not just a devoted family man and a great engineer. Always there for his three children, he was also wholly dedicated to his church and his friends, ready to share a story, a joke, or some delicious food. As a proud Lebanese American, together with his wife, he embraced life in a new country he loved. Always happy to be around company and never one to ask much of others, he will be deeply missed.
