My full name is Christopher Victor Lopez. I generally go by Chris or Chris Lopez. Sometimes I use my middle initial or full first name to distinguish myself from other Chris Lopez's. There are many of us. I was born June 30, 1961 in Alamosa, CO. I am the 10th of 11 children born to Carmel and Margaret Lopez (maiden name Salazar), also of Alamosa. My father was born in 1921 and my mother in 1923. They married in 1941, when my father took his first leave after joining the Army Air Corps and its experimental glider pilot program. I can trace my family back to the 1800s and the tiny Spanish and Indian villages of northern New Mexico.
