Oct. 12th will always be a sad day for me; my sister Mary Beth call to give me the news of David's condition. I will miss my childhood friend. We had one of the best sandlot neighborhood groups a kid could hope for; Mike Barbae, Byron Sharp, Pug Sanchez, Bruce Dyson, my bro Buddy. You could always count on David's participation, when getting together for a pick up game, all against all and God help you if you were on the wrong team competing against David in a game of pick up . I must...

David Castillo had a great impact on his student athletes, not because he was a great coach who took his teams to championships and not just because he was a great math Teacher, but because he was just "Coach Costello" as they so lovingly called him. He was someone they could play for, someone who taught them, and someone they could talk to. He was genuine. He made a great impact on my son at FCA coaching him in baseball, basketball, and teaching him in the classroom. I didn't realize how...

I went to all four years at Episcopal High with David, and he was one of my very best friends there. Come to think of it, he was one of everyone's best friends there.

We were so naive we couldn't get in trouble at Spring Break in Florida! I...

Mr. Ted, Ms. Bunny and Family:
I was shocked to see David's obituary notice this morning. It brought back a flood or good, good memories from the Old Goodwood neighborhood in the '60's and '70's. How many full speed-tackle football games were played in your front yard on Finchley Street (with no helmets or pads)? How many innings of baseball were argued over at the vacant lot on Government Street? When we played basketball in the Guillory's driveway we knew David was good, but at the...
