Jose Hugo Copa

With loving thoughts and condolences. It was a privilege to have known him.

Don Copa fue mi pastor por varios años. Sus hijos son muy buenos amigos míos. Nuestras familias estaban juntas a menudo. Un dia vino a mi casa para ver a mis padres. Vino en su moto. Me llevo a dar una vuelta. Me encanto. Cantaba muy bonito. Jose lino, David, Hector, Ruti y Timo mi mas grandes pesames. Tia Rut An, siento mucho la perdida de tu gran amor. Mis mas grandes pesames. Doy gracias que sabemos que Don Copa está con su Sr. Y que ya no tiene dolor y su cuerpo funciona bien. Abrazos a todos.

Don Copa, as we all called him, was a kind, soft spoken, man of God. My friends and I, when at boarding school in Cerrillos, always made a stop at his house when out riding horse. He always came out to greet us. My love to all his children, and my dear Aunt Ruth Anne.

Don Copa, such a kindly, friendly and funny man. I knew him in Cerrillos and Quijano, and always was easy to tell that he loved the Lord and wanted to serve him. He would sometimes come and visit my family in Quijano, and it was a joy to spend time with him.

I rejoice to know he is with the Lord he loved.
