Victor Manuel Soto-Cruz, of Crestwood, Kentucky, passed away on October 21, 2025. He was born on July 3, 1962, in Puerto Rico, and lived a life filled with laughter, love, and hard work.

Victor was known for his bright smile and joyful personality—he could light up any room he entered. He worked diligently as a self-employed painter for many years, taking great pride in his craft and in providing for those he loved.

He had a deep passion for music and dancing, and he especially loved spending time with family and friends celebrating life’s simple moments. A true sports enthusiast, Victor was an avid Dallas Cowboys fan and also enjoyed playing soccer whenever he had the chance.

Victor’s kindness, generosity, and positive outlook will be deeply missed by all who knew him.

Victor will be remembered as a loving friend, hardworking man, and joyful soul who found beauty in every day and left behind a legacy of warmth, laughter, and love.


Víctor Manuel Soto-Cruz, de Crestwood, Kentucky, falleció el 21 de octubre de 2025. Nació el 3 de julio de 1962 en Puerto Rico y vivió una vida llena de risas, amor y trabajo duro. Víctor era conocido por su sonrisa radiante y su personalidad alegre; iluminaba cualquier habitación. 

Trabajó con ahínco como pintor independiente durante muchos años, enorgulleciéndose de su oficio y de cuidar de sus seres queridos. Sentía una profunda pasión por la música y el baile, y disfrutaba especialmente de pasar tiempo con familiares y amigos celebrando los momentos sencillos de la vida.
