Louis Edward Fossessca

Louis “Lou” Fossessca passed away December 21, 2025, at the age of 63. He was a native of Youngstown, Ohio and went to school in Hubbard, Ohio as a Hubbard Eagle football player and wrestler. He continued to value and love his Hubbard classmates and friends throughout his life. In the middle 70’s, Lou followed his mother and his sister Linda to Las Vegas, Nevada when his family dynamics changed where he spent many years of his life. In 1980, Lou joined the United States Navy and was a proud aircraft mechanic during Operation Desert Shield/Desert Storm. Lou never lost his love for the privilege to serve his country and felt it gave him the opportunity to show the love he had for his country, and the pride he had in defending it. He valued the USA to his core.

Lou truly knew that it was more blessed to give than to receive. His generosity knew no bounds. He was not only generous in life, but also in death as an organ donor. Lou was a loving son, brother, godfather, uncle, partner and friend and had a beautiful soul who would help anyone. In the late 1990’s Lou moved to Los Angeles, California and enjoyed going to the beach, traveling, and spending his time with his significant other, Charlene. He lived life to the fullest as much as he could

Although Lou is gone, he will live in our hearts forever.

He is survived by his companion Charlene Fellows of Los Angeles, CA; sisters, Linda Fossessca Shahan of Surprise, AZ and Beth Fossessca of Brookfield, OH; Stepmother Helen Fossessca of Brookfield, OH; aunt Theresa Fossessca DeFrank of Lowellville, OH; uncle with whom his middle name was given Edward Halick of Las Vegas, NV; niece and godchild Ashley Marie Ganier Blackburn and great nephew Remington Blackburn from Las Vegas, NV; niece Maddie Fossessca of Brookfield, OH; cousin Lisa Pinciaro Beach of Las Vegas, NV; and many other cousins that are too many to mention.
