1955-2025

It is with so much love and immense sadness that we announce the passing of beloved wife, sister, and loyal friend, Eileen Lopez, 69, of Brentwood, California. She departed this life on September 14, 2025, from liver cancer.

She was born on November 1, 1955, to Charles and Ruth Madigan in Cleveland, Ohio.

Eileen attended Akron University in Akron, Ohio, achieving a Bachelor of Science degree in Psychology.

She married Edward Lopez in November of 1986; they did not have children.

Her career was in management of retail and commercial real estate. She retired as the Director of Lease Management at Ross Dress for Less, Inc. in 2019.

She was an avid reader, loved travel, golf, diamond painting, cooking, good wine and food, living a blessed life in retirement at Trilogy at the Vineyards in Brentwood, following her beloved SF Giants and San Francisco 49ers and spending time with husband, Ed, family and friends.
