To the Castillon Family:
Sorry for your loss and deepest sympathy at this painful time. From reading this guest book it is clear that Uncle Frank has left a great legacy.
As for me I remember his smile. I will always remember visiting with Aunt Dora and Uncle Frank and thinking what amazing people. I still have a beautiful X-mas card from a few years back from Frank and Dora that makes it on my Christmas tree every year. It is the story of the nativity and how God loves us. Thanks to that Love this is not the end of the story! Job well done Uncle Frank and may God grant you and your family his peace.

Affectionately known as "Papo" by grandchildren and great-grandchildren. A great man, a true gentleman, a great example and inspiration to all who were blessed by his presence, left us for a higher calling...I think he is probably needed elsewhere as he has more than fulfilled his duties here. Stronger than any man I have known, he fought until the last day, with dignity, and always, humor. He had the utmost respect for all of God's children, as he himself came from a humble beginning and worked his way to success. God, family, and country...he walked the walk...a true American hero, and forever my hero.
Papo,
You inspired all of us to work harder and achieve more, and because of you, we did. You always told us how proud you were, of US. I hope you know how proud WE are of YOU. If you had a flaw, I don't know what it was. I only hope I can be half the man you were.
Love always,
Frank III

To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here is just eternal love.
Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me and He said, "I welcome you."
It's good to have you back again; you were missed while you were gone.
As for your dearest family, they'll be here later on.
I need you here badly; you're part of my plan.
There's so much that we have to do, to help our mortal man."
God gave me a list of things, that he wished for me to do.
And foremost on the list, was to watch and care for you.
And when you lie in bed at night, the day's chores put to flight.
God and I are closest to you....in the middle of the night.
When you think of my life on earth, and all those loving years
because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears.
But do not be afraid to cry; it does relieve the pain.
Remember there would be no flowers, unless there was some rain.
I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned.
But if I were to tell you, you wouldn't understand.
But one thing is for certain, though my life on earth is o'er.
I'm closer to you now, than I ever was before.
There are many rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb;
but together we can do it by taking one day at a time.
It was always my philosophy and I'd like it for you too...
that as you give unto the world, the world will give to you.
If you can help somebody who's in sorrow and pain,
then you can say to God at night......"My day was not in vain."
And now I am contented....that my life has been worthwhile,
knowing as I passed along the way, I made somebody smile.
So if you meet somebody who is sad and feeling low,
just lend a hand to pick him up, as on your way you go.
When you're walking down the street, and you've got me on your mind;
I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind.
And when it's time for you to go.... from that body to be free,
remember you're not going.....you're coming here to me.
