Our Father ~ Our Warrior ~ Our Hero
Ted Soto passed away on July 26, 2024 in Modesto, California at the age 87 years. Born on September 13, 1936, in Fort Morgan, Colorado to his parents Peter and Manuela Soto. Married to his beloved wife, Dolorez Soto, just shy of 70 years on July 10th, 1954.
Ted passed away peacefully with his 5 children beside him: Patsy, Christiann, Ted Jr., Tony and Lisa. He was a father-in-law to Bruce, Albert, Johnny, LuAnn and Beverly.
Ted was a loving, caring, devoted grandfather of 22 grandchildren, 22 1/2 great grandchildren and 9 great great grandchildren.
He is survived by his siblings, Katie, Esther, Mary Ann, Norma, Artie, Stevie and Ronnie. He is preceded in death by his parents, his sister Irene and his loving wife Dolorez.
Our father was a hardworking family man. He was always a person you could count on and didn’t hesitate to help anyone in need. He retired after 35 years with the City of Santa Clara. Couldn’t wait to see him in his street sweeper, after the parades. His hobby was working on cars at Bruno’s Automotive. His biggest pride and joy was his baby ~ a 1955 Chevy Bel Air.
He was a devoted family man who cherished spending time with his large family and friends. He will be dearly missed by his family and friends.
Forever In Our Hearts
