Maria “Marie”

Elena Lung-Lopez

Maria "Marie" Elena Lung-Lopez of Burkburnett, TX was called to the Lord on 9.23.26. Marie was born in Fresno, CA 3.16.66 and moved to many states in her beautiful life. Marie was a woman of incredible strength, independence, and love. She was known by all who knew her as someone who stood firmly on her own, never needing anyone to speak for her. She knew who she was, she knew her worth, and she loved her family with everything she had.

Marie cherished her family above all else. Her daughters and grandchildren were a piece of her heart, and the love she gave them will continue to live on through each of them.

After marrying the love of her life, Rev. Joel Lopez, Marie proudly carried his name. Marie is preceded by the passing of her beloved husband and her dear sister, Linda Zavala.

Marie is survived by her daughters, Lena of Centralia, WA; Roberta (Rudy) of San Angelo, TX; and Jasmine (Fernando) of Corpus Christi, TX; and her five precious grandchildren, Sophia, Eric Jr., Guiliana, Izabella, and Fernando Jr.

She also leaves behind her loving parents, Helen and Robert Lung and two sisters, Irma and Vera.

There are no words that can truly express how deeply Marie will be missed. Her absence leaves a space that can never be filled, but with her love, her strength, her laughter, and the memories she created will remain with us forever.

Though we can no longer hold her hand or hear her voice, we will carry her with us—in our hearts, in our memories, and in the love she gave us.

Until we meet again, Mom.

Forever loved. Forever missed. Forever a part of us.

We love you, Mom.
