Joseph Edward Lopez

Joseph Edward Lopez, 44, of Desoto, Texas was born April 24, 1976 to the parents of Larry and Patsy Lopez in Lubbock, Texas.

He graduated from the DeSoto Fire Academy in 2000 and later became a certified EMT. He was a man of many facets, he mostly enjoyed spending time with his family, rallying for his daughter at every volleyball game and being a cheer dad at football games. He also had his CDL and drove trucks for oil companies as well as commercial. Joseph was a member of Church on the Hill in DeSoto under the leadership of Reverend Michael Mitchell. He was the laughter of the family. A lending hand to many. He was a husband, father, son, brother, uncle and a friend to those he met. His presence filled every room. He will be missed everyday.
