Celebrate Zeke Lopez's Legacy with Love

Dear friends, family and cherished supporters,

With profound sorrow, I share the heartbreaking news of my father, Zeke Lopez’s, passing. After a brave and tireless fight against Acute Myeloid Leukemia over the past month and a half, he has found eternal peace.

Zeke was more than a father—he was a guiding light, a man of extraordinary heart and spirit. A proud veteran who served our country for over eight years, a trailblazing entrepreneur who inspired others with his knowledge and determination, and a deeply proud Latino/Native american Indian from the Tohono O'odham Nation. His accomplishments, from earning a BS in Business Administration, an MBA, and a DBA, to building a business that empowered countless others, were remarkable. But his true legacy lies in his boundless kindness, his unwavering devotion to his family, and the joy he brought to life—whether it was through his love for salsa dancing or the encouragement he gave so freely. He made every moment meaningful and left an indelible mark on every life he touched.

As we grieve this profound loss, our hearts are set on honoring him with the farewell he so richly deserves. A memorial to celebrate his extraordinary life will allow us to come together in love, gratitude, and remembrance, reflecting the immense impact he had on us all.

In this time of need, we humbly ask for your support. The expenses for his funeral and memorial service are significant, and any contribution, no matter how small, will help us:

- Cover funeral and burial costs

- Organize a beautiful memorial to honor his legacy

Your kindness means the world to us during this time of unimaginable grief. My father’s light continues to shine in all of us who loved him, and your generosity will help us pay tribute to a man who gave so much to others.

From the depths of our hearts, thank you for your prayers, your support, and for being part of my father’s incredible journey.

With love and heartfelt gratitude,

His daughter Alexis Lopez and Family ❤️‍
