Paolo Richard Castellano

Just saw this and my heart aches. I only new the family a short time in the 80s but working with this kid then during his summer breaks was a joy.

Paolo was an amazing skater, but I remember him mostly as an aspiring pair skater on ice. He was training at Parkaire Ice Arena near Atlanta, under Tim Abel and Don Laws. He was talented and attacked the ice with gusto at every practice session. I'm saddened to hear of his passing, and my thoughts and prayers immediately go out to his family.

So sorry for your loss. I wish I had an opportunity to do more bike rides with him. When life got busy, I always thought there would be more time in the future for more rides. I always liked passing him and his son on the bike trails. We would always stop and do u-turns and end up chatting for a while. Paolo was always so friendly and full of great bike tips and strategies. On one chance meeting on the trails, I got to meet Paolo's wife and daughter as well. That was a good day. I also enjoyed hearing what the latest was on Gianni and his cycling and scholarly success. I always left our chance meetings in a happy mood.

My fondest memory of Paolo is vacationing in Manitouwish Waters with family and friends a true highlight in my life! You will truly be missed Paolo!

He lived life FULLTILT! Whatever he did it was 100%..... he set his mind to it and did it! He inspired me to look at my life and decide how I wanted to live it. He was a great human being.... And he will be so missed.Tina KNEISLEY Dulong
