Luis Lopez, 78, of El Paso, TX died November 7, 2013 in Goodyear, AZ. He was born August 25, 1935 in San Bernardo, Durango, Mexico to Felipe and Manuela Lopez. Luis loved the outdoors, loved working the earth and loved nature. He worked hard to bring his family to the U.S. from Mexico, to provide them with a better life. He always encouraged his kids to pursue education, so that they may have a better and easier life than he had. We all knew he loved us, even though he had difficult times expressing his feelings. We were so blessed to be with him in his final moments. We will miss him dearly. We love you Apa!
