We join with family, friends and fans in mourning the tragic loss of one of the Comedy Central family, comedian Freddy Soto. Freddy passed away on July 10th at the age of 35. From a memorial website for Freddy:

"Freddy passed away unexpectedly last Sunday. Only one night before, he triumphantly left the stage of the Laugh Factory to a raucous, standing ovation. No cause of death has been announced, and we join his family, and wide circle of friends, in mourning his untimely passing.

Those of us that knew and worked with Freddy for much of these past 13 years are devastated, as Freddy was very much a comedian on the verge. Freddy's work on TV, in films, on stage and all over the country gave us many laughs, many highs, and he will be missed so dearly. His "Three Amigos" tour with Carlos Mencia & Pablo Francisco, and nationwide tour opening for Marc Anthony, cemented his status as a tour de force comedian to be reckoned with."

We agree. He will be missed.
