Published in the Albuquerque Journal on Tuesday August 29, 2006

Dale James Lopez died August 27, 2006 in a car accident at the very young age of 20. Dale will be greatly missed by his parents, Joy and Daniel Lopez; his sister, Kim and brother, Jason. At a gathering at the family home to bring comfort to Joy and Danny were Dale's grandparents, Vidal and Cecilia Lopez of Veguita, NM, Gil Cordova, and Nellie Cordova. Uncles, aunts, cousins and friends created a steady stream of people who came to bring comfort to the grieving parents and to remember Dale as a gentle, loving, kind and generous person. We thank God for the very short time that He so generously allowed us with Dale, he will be in our hearts the rest of our lives. Dale graduated from Sandia High School in 2004 where he played varsity football for four years. He was selected for the All Metro team in his Junior year. He loved all sports and was an avid fan of the Dallas Cowboys Football team and was looking forward to the start of the season. He was employed with HEI where he was recognized as a hard working and valued employee.
