Victoria Teruel was born on September 4 in New York City to Lucy and Michael C. Valdes Sr. She was the beloved sister of Michael C. Valdes Jr., the loving wife and widow of Ivan Teruel Sr., and the devoted mother of Ivan and Samantha Teruel, who survive her.
Victoria was a truly kind and compassionate person to everyone she encountered. To many, she was simply "Mom"—a source of comfort, guidance, and unconditional support. She had a remarkable ability to listen without judgment and offer thoughtful advice to those in need. Whether someone was struggling, feeling unseen, or simply needed a caring presence, Victoria made them feel valued and understood.
Her warmth, generosity, and positive spirit touched countless lives. She was a bright light to her family, friends, and community, and her memory will continue to inspire all who had the privilege of knowing her. She will be deeply loved, forever remembered, and greatly missed.
