Incredible Life ~ full and well lived. I admire his commitment & dedication in every aspect of his life. The Lopez family is a North Warren treasure. You are in my thoughts & prayers. And in addition, I just noticed, son David and his wife Judy lost her mom, Judy Oaks, on June 14th ~ a double loss. God Bless. Strength together.
Sincere condolences to Mary, Becky, Dave and family. Dave was a wonderful, kind man and a generous and thoughtful neighbor. I will always remember the playground he built in the backyard that attracted and provided fun times for all the neighborhood kids. I wanted to let you know that I am deeply sorry for your loss.
Dave,
So sorry to hear about your father. I pray that God helps you and your family get through this difficult time
Correction to my post: Dave’s wife Judy – her mom’s first name is Anita. I apologize for the error.
Enjoyed hiking and x-c skiing with Dave and the Allegheny Outdoor Club.
Sincere Condolences Mrs. Lopez, Becky and Randy, Jim and Carol.
