Krystofer Lee Lopez

Specialist Krystofer Lee Lopez, 18, of Biglerville, passed away on March 12, 2026, while serving on duty during a training incident at Letterkenny Army Depot. He was born May 2, 2007, in York, the son of Hector and Carmen (Laureano) Lopez.

Krystofer was a 2025 graduate of Biglerville High School, where he excelled at wrestling. A dedicated servant to his community and country, he was a volunteer with the Biglerville Fire Company and joined the U.S. Army during his junior year. He held the rank of Specialist and served as a 31B Military Police Officer for the LEAD Directorate of Emergency Services, Law Enforcement Division, and was a Personnel Force Innovation (PFI) member assigned to the 947th Quartermaster Company.

An avid gamer and motorcycle enthusiast, Krystofer loved riding and participating in charity bike runs. He always went above and beyond to help anyone he could, but most importantly, he always put his family first. Krystofer was a true food enthusiast who loved trying new restaurants. Whether he was sitting down for a meal at Chili’s, Buffalo Wild Wings, or Mission Barbecue, he cherished sharing a table with others. However, his most frequent “culinary” stops were more local; he was such a loyal regular at both Wawa and Sheetz that he likely spent more time and money there than anywhere else. Known for having the biggest smile in the room, Krystofer always made everyone laugh with his silly jokes.

In addition to his parents, he is survived by his siblings: his twin sister, Kiyerra “Kiki” Lopez, Patrick Howe III, Myra Williams, Hector Lopez Jr., Hector Lopez, Carlos Lopez, Heidy Beth Lopez, and Arlene Lopez; 21 nieces and nephews; numerous aunts and uncles; and maternal grandparents, Angel Laureano and Sandra Dewitt. He was preceded in death by his paternal grandparents, Eleuterio and Virginia Lopez.
