In Loving Memory of Bert Lopez
The Brightest Light, The Warmest Heart
It is with both heavy hearts and immense gratitude that we celebrate the life of Bert Lopez—a man whose very presence lit up every room, every soul, and every single day. To know Bert was to know pure joy. To love Bert was to be transformed by kindness, warmth, laughter, and a sense of goodness so rare it felt like magic.
There are simply no words strong enough, wide enough, or bright enough to capture the essence of who Bert was. He wasn’t just one of the good ones—he was the best. In every way.
Bert lived with a heart so open and a spirit so joyful that it was impossible not to be pulled into his orbit. He made strangers feel like lifelong friends, and friends feel like family. His laughter was contagious, his hugs unforgettable, and his love truly unconditional.
The truth is, Bert didn’t just walk through life—he danced, laughed, sang, and lifted others up along the way. Whether it was with a thoughtful word, a helping hand, or a spontaneous burst of joy, he gave more than anyone could ever expect—and never asked for anything in return. He gave because that’s who he was.
He made the ordinary feel extraordinary. A quiet moment on the porch, a shared meal, a silly joke—everything was more beautiful with Bert in it. His love was the kind that changed people forever, that softened hearts, and reminded us all what really matters.
Bert Lopez was, simply put, amazing. The kind of amazing that doesn’t fade or grow dim, even in absence. His legacy is one of boundless love, light-hearted humor, radiant joy, and unwavering goodness. He made this world better, and those of us who were lucky enough to know him will carry his spirit forward with every smile, every act of kindness, every moment of joy.
He is deeply missed. He is endlessly loved. And he will live on in every laugh, every hug, every burst of sunshine, and every good-hearted thing we do.
Fly high, Bert. You were—and always will be—the best of us

My heart is broken.
The world feels quieter now… emptier… like something has gone missing.

I still can’t find the right words — and yet I have to find some to say what I never wanted to, my dad has passed away.

He was the energy in every room. The laugh you couldn’t ignore. The one who made strangers feel like friends and friends feel like family. He was joy. He was warmth. He was mine.

And now he’s gone. How does the world just go on while we are in such sorrow. But it does and so will we and we will make him proud. 

There’s an ache that words can’t touch — but there’s also love. So much love. And that’s what we’ll hold onto.

We’ll carry his spirit in our stories, in our laughter, in the way we love others just like he did.

My dad always loved my picture reels, and now here’s one dedicated to just him. 

Thank you to everyone for the outpouring of support and love and to the hundreds who came to join us on Friday as we gathered to remember him. From Rome to New York City, and countless more cities across the world, he touched the hearts of so many. We are grateful for the memories we will hold on to forever. 

Rest in peace, Dad. Save a dance for me in heaven.

Apoyando a Colombia!!Al lado de Bert todo se tornaba en una gran fiesta. Dejas historias para contar por mucho tiempo. Partiste al paraíso al lado de Jesucristo, era hermoso ver el interés que tenías por aprender de Dios.

En este elegante lugar de Miami fue el primer encuentro de Patry y Bert. Los amo !♥️🙏

Tuve el privilegio de ser testigo de este gran amor el día que se conocieron y en la despedida física, siempre te recordaré como el amigo que amo y vivió al máximo. Tenías el arte de convertir cualquier situación en una celebración. ♥️🙏

Desde aquí hasta el cielo te envío mi corazón mi cuñadito, mi hermanito del alma, no es posible expresar en letras el gran ser humano que eras pero trataré, siempre te recordaré con todas esas virtudes inigualables,  esa alegría, esa humildad, ese amor desmedido y desinteresado hacia todo el que te rodeaba, nunca habrá otro como tu, creo que Diosito rompió el molde cuando te hizo porque eras una persona excepcional. Gracias mi cuñadito mi heanito por estar en nuestras y hacernos siempre sonreír, por convertir momentos a veces duros en momentos de alegría y gozo, solo irradibas luz nunca nada malo, de ti solo salian palabras buenas de aliento y esperanza y cuantas cosa más podría decir que no me alcanzaría la vida.
Mis hijos y yo te damos gracias y enviamos un be o y gran abrazo de aquí hasta el cielo, porque alguien como tu solo podría estar en ese lugar en el cielo gozandote con nuestro Padre Celestial,  esa fiesta ahí arriba es para ti y es  por la eternidad, así que tu fiesta nunca parará, te amaremos por siempre❤️🙇❤️🙏

BERT. 
Sé que no será fácil aceptar tu ausencia, pero tu recuerdo siempre quedará en nuestra memoria.
No podremos olvidar a alguien que nos dio tantos momentos para recordar,pues eras una persona especial.
A veces un  gran hombre en otros momentos,un gran niño,pero, siempre una persona maravillosa  que dio tanto amor amistad,alegría.
Me robó una frase que alguien me dijo un dia "
Cuando en la Tierra perdemos a alguien que  se ama. en el cielo ganamos un ángel que ya conocemos.
BERT  amigo mío.TU NO MORIRAS NUNCA PUES ESTARAS SIEMPRE PRESENTE EN NUESTROS CORAZONES.
Sory.

Bert y Patty , Ivan juntos a las nubes y corrian y corrian.
Los Angeles, intentaban pararlos mas no podian, porque ellos del mundo se escondian.
 No risas, ni lacrimas de amor, ningun dolor, unicamente amor.

 Massimo  Bosi

Ahora te encuentras observándonos desde arriba. 

Cómo te extrañamos, pero sabes Humberto López, que aunque no te haya manifestado con frecuencia lo mucho que te apreciaba siempre recordaré tus sentimientos, tu alegría, tu risa y todo el cariño que nos regalaste sin esperar nada a cambio.

En ti entendí lo que significa la palabra amigo pues tenías la capacidad de sacar de las personas lo mejor de cada una, siempre brindabas lo mejor de ti tus atenciones y tus afectos.
Siempre recordaré tu viaje a Medellin, lo felices que fuimos de recibirte y compartir esa alegría día a día.

El cielo debe estar de fiesta con tu llegada te quiero y te recordaré siempre.
María Amparo

Bert siempre estara brillando en nuestros corazones y memorias. Tuve el gran placer de compartir con el en varias oportunidades y de disfrutar de su divertida y alegre personalidad. 
Bert, siempre estaras presente. Te vemos en la proxima vida. Por que para mi, todos nos volvemos a reencontrar. 
Dios te bendiga !

Bert, with his heart of gold, his contagious laugh, and his love for life, lit up every single room he stepped into. But nothing compared to the way he lit up my  little girl’s face every time she heard her Nino’s voice that joy was truly priceless.  

Over the past 25 years, our family has created so many memories with him that it’s hard to imagine the rest of our lives without him. All I can do now is pray — pray that God blesses his next journey and gives Paty and his entire family the strength and resilience to carry on.

Mi corazón se rompio porque amigo, vecino,hermano  ya no está físicamente con nosotros el para mi familia 
Fue un amigo,incondicional, un hermano, un tío , compadre que la vida nos regaló. Un hombre honesto, sincero, con un corazón de oro, que sabía reírse de todo, incluso de mí. A veces me molestaba con sus bromas y su forma de burlarse, pero hasta eso lo hacía con cariño. Lo quise y lo seguiré queriendo
Humbertico  me cuidó siempre, me protegió en los momentos más duros, me acompañó y sé que, desde donde esté, seguirá haciéndolo. No es un adiós, es un hasta pronto 
Mi hermanito del alma te voy a extrañar

🇺🇸 🕊️ In Loving Memory of Bert López

It’s hard to put into words what we feel when someone like Bert leaves us.
He wasn’t just a friend—he was part of our family. Over 30 years of friendship, love, trust, and unforgettable memories.

Bert was like a big child—noble, joyful, sincere, and deeply human.
A man who was always respectful, gentle, and kind. He earned everyone’s affection with his humble heart, his sweet smile, and his presence.

He used to call me “G,” “Gigi,” or “Gissell”… and he would laugh and ask,
“Which one are you today?”
Because he knew it depended on my mood that day.
And he also knew that when I called him “Gissell,” it meant I was about to scold him like a little brother.
But he always listened—with that special sweetness and humility that made him so unique.

My husband and I loved him dearly.
And we always will.
We miss you so much, Bert …
G, Gigi, and Gissell miss you deeply.
You may be gone, but you will always live in my heart.

You were the big kid who brought joy wherever you went…
That was you.
And you will never stop being with us.

With all our love,
G,Gigi,Gissell

Remembering  Bert a great friend and coworker — someone who could make you laugh even on the toughest days.
He had a heart of gold, a contagious smile, and a sense of humor that made work feel less like work.
Whether it was cracking jokes during meetings, pulling harmless pranks, or coming up with the most random outfit ideas, he made every day better just by being himself.
But behind all the laughs was a genuinely kind and loyal person — always there for others, always giving his best.
We were lucky to know him, and I’ll always be grateful for the memories, the friendship, and all the laughs we shared. He will truly be missed.

Titi had a rare gift for making others feel seen and heard. Whether through a listening ear, a spontaneous joke, or unwavering support, he brought out the best in those around him. He will be deeply missed but never forgotten. Rest peacefully, dear friend.

NYC, fun, fam night, we will miss his beautiful spirit.

Bert, thank you for all the beautiful moments we spent together, for always being there to celebrate me and my family. From the death of my dad to the birth of my babies. You were always there! I will miss dancing “suits and tie” and “single ladies” with you! I love so much my Bert. You will always be in my heart. Love, Vero.
