My friend, comedian, and native El Pasoan Freddy Soto passed away Sunday, July 10th in his sleep in his home in Los Angeles. Freddy moved from El Paso to LA where he became Richard Pryor's personal limo driver to appearing on Comedy Central's Premium Blend and his very own Comedy Central 1/2 Hour Special. He recently starred in the major motion picture “Spanglish” and had just finished signing a network deal for his own sitcom with CBS.
If you have seen perform before and/or a fan of his comedy please visit his webpage and sign his guestbook.
Freddy was scheduled to perform in El Paso on August 20th to help raise money for El Paso Libraries. The show will continue with a special tribute to the life of Freddy Soto.
