Life & Legacy
Born Victoria Gesalan Ang on December 23, 1941 in Dalaguete, Cebu, Philippines, Victoria A. Satorre lived a life rooted in faith, family, education, and service. She passed away on March 22, 2026 in Bakersfield, California.
Victoria was a dedicated educator who devoted much of her life to higher education in the Philippines. She graduated magna cum laude from the University of San Carlos with a Bachelor of Science in Accounting, earned her MBA from Central Michigan University, and later served as Dean at the University of San Carlos in Cebu City. She was also remembered as Miss Caltex. She is remembered for her wisdom, leadership, grace, and lifelong commitment to learning.
Beyond her professional accomplishments, Victoria was a loving wife, mother, grandmother, sister, aunt, educator, and friend. She was a proud grandmother to Johan, Ella, Toby, LA, MK, and Santi. Her extended family also included Farah and her daughter Shawn, Cecille, Jet’s girlfriend, and Mark’s wife, Celeste. A devout Catholic, her faith was central to the way she loved her family, served others, and carried herself through life. She also loved the simple joy of time together — especially Mahjong, one of her favorite pastimes with family — and she was a great cook whose meals brought people together. Her December 23 birthday often made the Christmas season a time of extra warmth, celebration, and family memories.

Trunk Up for Betty
