Ramon Castillo

Ramoncito: Sorry to hear of your father's passing. You may remember me as former husband of your cousin Anita and father of Jimmy Jr. Just remember the definition of middle age - so many we have loved who are gone, so many to love be loved who are not yet here.

Primos....I know that Ray is now in heaven dancing up a storm and 'cloud hopping' with my dad (Joe "Longo" Contreras)...as they used to table hop at weddings and family functions....they both loved their family tremendously. I loved Ray...he always had love for my mom and dad and I will miss him. Take care of yourselves...my prayers are with you all.

I look at Ramon and Mary's relationship and think oh my the legacy this man has left behind. It was a joy and pleasure to have met him and as long as we remember him in our hearts, he will live on. Thanks Ramon for the memories

Your memory will always be with us as we will forever carry you in our hearts.

Ray, Gloria and Family:May God Comfort You With Memories We can never be separated from those we love...because God leaves us with memories to hold and love that doesn't pass away.

Julie and I were saddened by the news of Ray's passing. Unfortunately we heard about it after the services so we didn't attend. Ray was one of my senior league baseball coaches then was my agent most of my adult life. Whether he was coaching or selling insurance, he was always smiling and good natured towards us. We actually missed him when he retired. Our thoughts and prayers are with you in your time of grief. May your memories bring you comfort.

Ray and I worked on the State Farm Agents Golf Tournament for 17 years. He was fun to work with and in addition one of my mentors while I was a rookie Agent. My sincerest condolences and prayers for all his family. Rest in peace amigo.

Ray & Gloria: All of us in Phoenix are so sorry for your loss. He had a wonderful service and the time the family had to be together was beautiful. He was a very special man, especially to me; a primo and a padrino (best man at my wedding) I enjoyed the times we golfed together and will never forget the very first Fiesta Bowl game (1970) that he took me to. All of us will miss him terribly. A challenge to both of you.....now that both of your parents are gone....keep close to one...
