JAMES BLASCO

James Blasco, 69, loving husband and father of five passed away Tuesday, October 4, 2022. James, fondly called Jim, was born October 30, 1952 in Riverside, CA as the youngest of five siblings. His family moved to Las Vegas when Jim was 6 months old. He was preceded in death by his father, Joseph, and mother, Mary. Jim met his beloved wife, Pamela, in high school at 14 years old. Jim and Pam just celebrated 51 years of marriage. They raised five wonderful children: James Jr. Blasco, Sarah Joy, Andrew Blasco, Brian Blasco and Emily Mitchell. Jim leaves four grandchildren: Sienna, Bella, Maclin and Kora. Jim had always been an integral part of the Las Vegas community and beloved by many. He was a Bishop Gorman and UNLV alumni. As a builder and developer, Jim watched the small town of Las Vegas grow in to the city it is today. His passions were his family, work and golf. His spirit was strong, his soul was pure, and his legacy will continue living through his children and grandchildren. He will be dearly missed by all.
