The family of Arthuro Lopez has invited the Patriot Guard Riders to be present to honor this Hero for his service to our country. It will be our privilege to do so.
Arthur enlisted in the United States Army on June 10, 1946 and was honorably discharged on May 30, 1947. Arthur served in the Army Air Corps as an airplane and engine mechanic. He was awarded the WWII Victory Medal and the Army of Occupation Medal (Japan).
After discharge, Arthur became an aerospace engineer, working for aerospace contractors in Southern California. He enjoyed working on and repairing cars in his spare time.
Arthur is survived by four sisters and his son.
