Dana Lynn Cop

Dana was born on February 3, 1972 in Bellflower, California to parents, Donald and Marilynn Delmatoff. Dana moved to Valencia in 1977, where she excelled academically and athletically at Meadows Elementary School, Placerita Junior High, and Wm. S. Hart High School. She was an all-SCV volleyball player, and played in college at the University of Utah, where she earned a Bachelor of Science degree in 1994. Upon graduating with high school boyfriend and fellow Ute, Peter Cop, she returned to Valencia to begin her 20 year career with Pacific Bell, now known as AT&T. Dana married Peter on September 23, 1995 at the Sherwood Country Club in Westlake, California. They settled in Valencia and had three children, Davis (14) and twins, Kyle (12) and Avery (12). While maintaining an active family life, she continued a successful career with AT&T. Her most recent position was as Director of External Affairs for AT&T. In addition, Dana has contributed to the community by serving as SCV Chamber of Commerce Chairman of the Board in 2011, on the board of the YMCA, on the Executive Board for the Boys and Girls Club, and as a member of the Santa Clarita Educational Foundation to name just a few. Dana's bright smile, optimism, and commitment to her hometown will be greatly missed.
