Patrick "Pat" Lopez

Patrick “Pat” Lopez, lifelong resident of Santa Fe, NM, passed away on July 29, 2019 at the age of 64. He was born on April 15, 1955 to Marie and Joseph Lopez, who precede him in death; along with his two brothers, Joe Lopez Jr. and Arthur Lopez; and his son, Justin Segura. He is survived by his wife, Monica Garcia-Lopez; son Nathan Lopez; daughters Jovan (Gilberto Romero) Segura and Mariah (Zane Kesler) Lopez; grandchildren Jasmine, Jordan, Jonathan, Joelle, and Jocelyn; caretaker Jerry Mendonca; brothers Anthony “Tony” Lopez, Mike (Chris) Lopez; sisters Rosalie (Frank) and MaryAnn; and numerous nieces, nephews, cousins and friends.

Pat came from a strong family of roofing, and he continued this tradition throughout his life as the owner of Pat Lopez Roofing for over 30 years. He was involved in the St. John’s Choir, and he served as a former member of the Fiesta Council, Caballeros de DeVargas, and National Roofing Contractors Association.

He was an avid golfer, and he always loved a good trip to Las Vegas. Pat lit up the room with his jokes and personality. He loved family gatherings and a good breakfast with his brothers. He was generous to those in need, and he had a big heart to everyone around him. He didn’t go a day without giving someone a hard time and making people laugh. With all jokes aside, Pat was a loving and devoted man to his wife and children, and he was faithful to his Catholic religion and had a way with teaching about the ways of life to his family.
