Edward LOPEZ Obituary

LOPEZ, Edward R. On December 23, 2017 Edward R. Lopez, 59, joined his sisters, Lizzie and Debbie Lopez. His parents, Pupie and Eddie Lopez, also preceded him in death. He worked at Tucson Water as an engineering manager, where many of his co-workers have expressed their gratitude for his friendship and leadership. At home, he enjoyed history and westerns, but his true passions, were in the outdoors. He loved biking, shooting, hunting, camping, golfing, off-roading, and perhaps even weekend yard-work. Survivors include daughters, Nicole E. Lopez, Terez K. Gabrhel (Michael) and Karina R. Nipper (Matthew). Also surviving, are his brother, Richard (Jessie) P. Lopez; sister, Lupita (Ray) Sardina; and our very special "Nana Tia Fina", Delfina Alvarez. His three loving granddaughters, Addy, Senna and Lizzie will miss their big buddy, "Grandfather Edward". Services will be offered Thursday, January 4, 2018 at 10:00 a.m. at Most Holy Trinity Parish. In lieu of flowers, please donate to the National Park Service in memory of Edward. All donations made via YouCaring will be sent to the National Park Service. Arrangements by CARRILLO'S TUCSON MORTUARY.

I just learned of Ed's passing. Ed was a mentor and friend during the early part of my civil engineering career in Tucson.

The engineering consulting world is a fast paced and often stressful world. Ed taught me the importance of slowing down and building relationships.

I have a few funny golf stories that Ed will continue to laugh about in heaven, especially when the Road Runner chased us around the links at Continental Ranch.

Rest in peace Ed.

My most heartfelt condolences and prayers to the family. I met Ed back in 1996, Ed was an awesome co-worker and an even better friend. I will miss you coming down to my office and talking smack to me, you were the best! You always took care of yours that's for sure! I will miss you bud...

I worked with Ed when he began his career at Tucson Water. He was a kind and special man, he allowed me to adjust my work schedule to finish my college degree. He truly loves his girls; you are the light of his life, and he is very proud of your every accomplishment and success. May you find peace in the loving memories you carry with you. You are in my thoughts and prayers. He will be missed.
