Cristobal “Cris” Soto

In Loving Memory of Cristobal “Cris” Soto
April 28, 1994 – June 4, 2025

It is with deep sorrow and heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Cristobal Soto, lovingly known to most as “Cris,” on June 4, 2025, at the age of 31.

Born on April 28, 1994, Cris grew up in Woodbridge Virginia, proudly carrying the spirit of his home state in everything he did—so much so that close friends affectionately called him “VA.” He was a devoted son, a protective and caring brother, a proud father, and a loyal friend. He grew up surrounded by love, one of four brothers and a cherished sister, forming bonds that remained unbreakable through the years.

Cris was known for his big heart and his unshakable commitment to the people he loved. He had a goofy, infectious sense of humor that could lift anyone’s spirits, and he never hesitated to put others before himself. If you needed a helping hand, Cris was there—he would literally give you the shirt off his back. He was hardworking and dedicated, whether he was pursuing his goals, exercising to stay fit, or pouring his heart into his rap lyrics—his passion for rapping was one of the ways he expressed himself with creativity and soul.

Above all else, Cris loved his family. He was a proud father to two beautiful boys, who were his world. He worked hard not only to provide for them but also to protect and guide them with all the love he had to give. And he loved his mother deeply—there was never a doubt about the special bond they shared.

His presence will be missed every single day, but his love, laughter, and selflessness will live on in all of us who had the honor to know him.

En Memoria de Cristobal “Cris” Soto
28 de abril de 1994 – 4 de junio de 2025

Con profundo dolor y corazones apesadumbrados, anunciamos el fallecimiento de Cristobal Soto, conocido cariñosamente por muchos como “Cris”, el 4 de junio de 2025, a la edad de 31 años.

Nacido el 28 de abril de 1994, Cris creció en Woodbridge, Virginia, llevando con orgullo el espíritu de su estado natal en todo lo que hacía—tanto así que sus amigos más cercanos lo llamaban “VA”. Fue un hijo devoto, un hermano protector y cariñoso, un padre orgulloso y un amigo leal. Creció rodeado de amor, siendo uno de cuatro hermanos y una hermana querida, formando lazos que se mantuvieron inquebrantables a lo largo de los años.

Cris era conocido por su gran corazón y su compromiso inquebrantable con las personas que amaba. Tenía un sentido del humor contagioso y juguetón que podía alegrar el día de cualquiera, y nunca dudaba en anteponer a los demás antes que a sí mismo. Si necesitabas una mano amiga, Cris siempre estaba allí—literalmente te daba la camisa que llevaba puesta. Era trabajador y dedicado, ya fuera persiguiendo sus metas, ejercitándose para mantenerse en forma, o expresando su alma y creatividad a través de su pasión por el rap.

Por encima de todo, Cris amaba a su familia. Era un padre orgulloso de dos hermosos hijos, quienes eran su mundo. Trabajaba duro no solo para proveerles, sino también para protegerlos y guiarlos con todo el amor que tenía para dar. Y amaba profundamente a su madre—el vínculo especial que compartían era evidente para todos.

Su presencia será extrañada cada día, pero su amor, su risa y su generosidad vivirán para siempre en todos los que tuvimos el honor de conocerlo.
