Heleodoro “Lolo” Lopez-Rodriguez, 35, of Grandview, WA. entered into God’s kingdom, on November 26th, 2023. Our family is at peace knowing Lolo is now resting in our Heavenly Fathers’ arms. Lolo was born on February 13, 1988 to Enrique and Paula Lopez in Puente de Ixtla, Mexico. In his early years of high school, Lolo played baseball, football and wrestling at Grandview High School and graduated in 2006. In 2014, Lolo graduated from Reahard Associates Inc., in Scottsdale, Arizona achieving a certificate in finance management.
Lolo developed a big passion for music at a very young age and was part of the worship team playing the drums at the Iglesia Vida Nueva in Grandview, throughout his teenage years. He loved sharing his love of music with his family and friends and if he was hosting a social gathering, you could guarantee there would be some kind of live music. He loved to bring people together, sparing no expense to entertain and feed the family and friends he cherished. His talent to easily relate to people and make them laugh led him to the auto industry. He started selling cars at the age of 19 and continued that career into his adult life, meeting many people along the way and creating lifelong friendships throughout the Tri-Cities and Yakima Valley. Lolo was a devoted father that supported all of the children's sporting activities. Lolo loved going on family vacations and creating new memories with his kids.
Lolo is survived by his wife Jessica, children (Gabbi Lopez, “little” Mia Lopez, Victor & Elijah Lopez) Step Children (Nathon Maltos,”big” Mia Hernandez and R.J. Hernandez), his parents Enrique and Paula Lopez, Brothers (Jose Lopez, Enrique Lopez (Gracie), Samuel Lopez) and numerous uncles, aunts, nieces, nephews and cousins. Lolo leaves behind a grieving community of family and friends who will forever cherish the memories of his infectious laughter, his love for life, and the joy he brought to those around him. May he find eternal peace, and may his spirit continue to inspire others to embrace the beauty of life just as he did.
