Viktor STOLYARENKO
Viktor was born in the urban-type settlement of Vapniarka in the Tomashpil district of the Vinnytsia region. There, he lived with his family: his wife Valentina, daughter Daryna, and son Anton. He was a reliable support and a loving father to them.
Since 1995, he worked in the production unit of the wagon service "Operational Wagon Depot Odesa-Zastava I" of the regional branch "Odesa Railway," progressing from a locksmith repairing rolling stock to a wagon inspector-repairman at the Wagon Maintenance Point of the Vapniarka station.
His experience and diligence were an example for all of us. But when the enemy came to our land, Viktor made the hardest decision – to defend his homeland. He joined the ranks of the marine infantry, and during a combat mission in the vicinity of the settlement of Illinka in the Donetsk region, since November 10, 2024, driver Stolyarenko V. S. was considered missing under special circumstances.
According to the identification decree dated April 17, 2025, issued by the investigative department of the Main Directorate of the National Police in the Zaporizhzhia region, he was identified and is considered deceased.
We have lost not just a colleague, but a comrade and a true hero. Viktor gave his life defending Ukraine and its future. We will always remember him as a brave, responsible, and dedicated man.
