It is with deep sorrow that we share the tragic news of the loss of our dear colleague and friend, Bassam Kubi. Bassam was involved in a fatal vehicle collision north of Fort St. John, British Columbia on June 12, 2024.

He was on his way to site, driving safely and seat-belted, when he was forced to stop for highway construction on his way to work. He was doing everything right. Behind him came a driver who, from everything we know currently, failed to even apply his brakes before colliding with his stopped vehicle. From what we know at this time, Bassam was killed instantly. His coworker, a passenger in the vehicle was unable to get any response from Bassam immediately after the collision.

Bassam was a kind, honorable, and loyal, hard-working man who came to Canada seeking opportunity and a better life for his family. In this short time, he made an indelible mark with his hard work and personable nature. His loyalty and dedication were evident to all who knew him, and his presence brought warmth and positivity to those around him.

Bassam leaves behind a wife and two young children, as well as his extended family. As they navigate through this unimaginable loss, we are coming together to support them during this difficult time.

We have created this GoFundMe page to provide financial assistance to Bassam’s family. The funds raised will go to his wife to help cover funeral expenses, living expenses, support his children's education, and provide some relief as they adjust to life without him.

We invite you to contribute in any way you can. Your generosity will make a significant difference for Bassam's family, helping them find some stability amidst the chaos.

Thank you for your support and for keeping Bassam's family in your thoughts and prayers during this heartbreaking time.

Bassam, you touched the hearts of all who had the opportunity to meet you, we will miss you.
