George Christopher Kopecky, 1971-2019

George Christopher Kopecky, 48, a very loving father, son and husband, joined the angels in heaven on Wednesday, June 19. He was born to the parents Robert and Linda Kopecky on June 21, 1971, in Pasadena, Texas. On Sept. 18, 1999 he married his loving wife, Sherry Kopecky, and together they raised three beautiful children, Joseph, 12, Ayden, 6, and Noah, 5.

Also, Uncle Eddie (Jane) and Raymond (Barbara) Seils; a sister, Elizabeth Ann Moore; aunts, Jeannie (Mike) Emmons-Corso, Rosie and Willemina Kopecky; and numerous nieces, nephews and cousins.

George was preceded in death by his father, Robert Gene; and brother, Shawn Curtis Kopecky.
