It’s hard to say goodbye to the incomparable Renee Victor. I first met Renee when I was just starting out—as a writer’s assistant on The Ortegas, my very first TV job. Even then, she radiated talent, humor, and grace. Years later, she would become my TV mom, Marta, on With Love—a role named after my paternal grandmother. It felt like destiny. She brought that character to life with such warmth, sharp wit, and elegance. And let’s be honest—she had the best legs in the biz! Renee was a true pro. A scene-stealer. A joy. A blessing. Her artistry made everything better, and her presence made every set brighter. Thank you, Renee, for the laughs, the lessons, and the love. You will be missed deeply and remembered always. Rest in peace, Reina. 💔 @reneevictoractor
