Victor Antonio Torres

It is with deep sorrow that we announce the passing of Victor Antonio Torres, a cherished soul who enriched the lives of those around him. Victor was born on April 21, 1943, in Ponce, Puerto Rico, and found his way to Lancaster, where he lived for many years. He departed this life peacefully on May 6, 2026, at the age of 83, surrounded by his loving family.

Victor's unwavering spirit was evident in his passion for history and his love for watching war documentaries. He often shared his appreciation for Spanish novelas, immersing himself in the stories that resonated with his Puerto Rican heritage. A dedicated family man, Victor was a loving and caring protector of his family, especially his beloved nieces and nephews. He devotedly cared for his mother in her final years, a testament to his nurturing character and commitment to family.

Those who knew Victor will remember him as a pure and genuine soul, one whose compassion and kindness knew no bounds. His wise guidance was sought by many, and his presence brought comfort to those around him. A negative word could never be spoken about him, as he consistently exemplified the virtues of love and understanding.

Victor is survived by his brother, Luis C. Torres (Carmen), of Lancaster, nieces and nephews: Izza Torres, Luis Torres Jr. (Rosangla Vera), Victor Torres (Damaris Torres), and Margaret Rodriguez (Justin); and great nieces and nephews: Victoria Torres, Luis A. Olmeda (Julia Baker), Elliot Olmeda, Daniel Torres, Kailani Torres, Izzabella Stark Torres, Elijah Stark Torres, Izza A. Torres, and Arrielle Torres.
