Chris Castillo Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers on Nov. 8, 2020.
Mr. Chris Joel Castillo Colon, 14, of Prospect Street, passed away unexpectedly, Sunday, November 8, 2020 at his home. God decides that his purpose here on earth was over. Chris was born on March 28, 2006 in Bayamon, PR., a son to Miguel Castillo and Neysha Colon of PR. "YOYO" as we affectionately called him, was educated in the Waterbury public school system where he was a freshman at Kennedy High School. He was a super respectful, friendly, super intelligent child. At an early age he became a lover of classical music, old cars, American football, history documentaries and movies. From his birth, he has always been a special child. He was filled with his charisma and charm. His sense of humor and antics always filled us with joy. Keep shining there in the sky, as you always have while you were here. We will love you and miss you forever. Besides his parents and his maternal grandparents who raised him as their own, Jesus Colon and Carmen Bergollo, he leaves to cherish his memories, brother; Edgar Castillo, several aunts, uncles, cousins and friends.

Viviras siempre en nuestros corazones, eres uno de nuestros angeles cuidanos y bendicenos todos los dias. Descanso eterno concedele Señor y que brille para él la luz perpetua.
Descanse en paz. Amén

While my time with Chris was short, he made a lasting impression on my myself and the entire period 1 class. He also had something to add to the discussion, and was an excellent student. RIP Chris.
