Viorel Sorin Baranga, Fairfax, VA— It is with deep sadness that we announce the passing of Viorel Sorin Baranga, a beloved member of the community. Sorin, who was born on July 20, 1964, passed away on November 18, 2024, after a brave battle with an aggressive form of colon cancer. His untimely departure has left a void that will be felt by all who knew him.
For over 16 years, Sorin, affectionately known as "Vio," touched countless lives with his kindness, positivity, and unwavering strength. A loving husband and father, he was respected not only as a professional but also as a friend and mentor. Sorin worked at MC Dean and JLL, and was remembered fondly by many who knew him both in Romania and in the United States. His infectious laughter and deep sense of altruism made him a cherished presence in both his workplace and his community.
Sorin’s struggle with cancer was long and difficult, but he faced his illness with extraordinary courage and dignity. His family, including his wife Achilina and daughter Ina, now face the heavy burden of unexpected funeral costs and financial adjustments following their sudden loss. In honor of Sorin’s memory, a fundraising campaign has been launched to support his family during this challenging time. The goal is to raise $20,000 to help cover funeral expenses and provide financial assistance to the family.
Messages of condolence have poured in from friends and community members, including heartfelt tributes from Ionut Lupu Pitulice, Larisa Mihaela, Maria Marian, and Florentina Rusu. Simona Botezan, who organized the fundraiser, wrote, "Drum lin spre eternitate, Sorin!"
We extend our deepest sympathies to Sorin’s family and friends. His legacy of love, strength, and generosity will live on in the hearts of those who knew him.
Our thoughts and prayers are with you, Sorin, and with your family during this sorrowful time. May you rest in peace.
