Javier Soto Aponte, 48, ha fallecido el 15 de Mayo del 2026, en Robin Johnson Hospice House con su amorosa familia a su lado. Javier nació el 7 de Octubre del 1977 en Guerrero, Mexico.
Javier era una persona muy simpático. A el siempre le gustaba pasar el tiempo con su familia y también con sus amistades. Siempre era el tipo de persona que podia iluminar una habitación. Le encantaba hacerles reír a todos. Haría que la gente se sintiera bien y sonreír a su alrededor. Tenia un espíritu optimista y siempre traía energía positiva dondequiera que iba. En su tiempo libre, le gustaba hacer muchas cosas. Sus pasatiempos eran ir al lago a pescar, ir a jugar futbol con sus hijos, salir y pasar tiempo con su familia. También le gustaba envolucarse en fiestas con familiares. Le gustaba bailar y cantar canciones. A Javier, igual era una persona muy trabajador. Hizo todo lo posible para cuidar a su familia y poder mantenerlos felices siempre. De todos modos, tenia un manera de hacer reír y darles vida a los que lo rodeaban. Algo que mucha gente siempre recordará de el.
A Javier le sobrevive su amorosa familia con esposa Danelia Salgado Godínez, sus hijos Jesus Alberto Soto, Octavio Soto, Juliana Soto, Yailin Guadalupe Soto y Xavi Soto. Su mama Angelina Aponte Ramirez y sus hermanos Benita Soto, Ofelia Soto, Angelina Soto, Horacio David Soto y Maria Soto.
