Jorge Antonio Castillo May 10, 1943 - August 17, 2025

It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of our beloved father, Jorge Antonio

Castillo, who died peacefully on August 17, 2025. He was born in Guadalajara Mexico on May

10, 1943. Was raised by his maternal grandmother Antonia Castillo. He lived a hard life growing

up.

Jorge Castillo was married for 59 wonderful years to his late wife, Linda Castillo, who preceded

him in death. Together, they built a beautiful family and shared a lifetime of love, resilience, and

joy. They loved to travel and dance. It was so beautiful to watch them. He is survived by his

devoted children: his son Michael, and his two daughters, Marleene and Magdalyn. His sons

Georgie, Carlo and grandson Jeremiah also preceded him in death. He was an adoring

grandfather, especially to Alyssa, who will always remember his warmth and wisdom. He was

blessed with 11 great grandchildren. One of them, Alexander, my father was his babysitter.

Jorge Castillo will be remembered for his unwavering dedication to his family, his strong work

ethic, and the kindness he showed to everyone he met. His legacy of love and strength will

continue to inspire all who knew him.

A private/family funeral service will be held in his honor. He will be deeply missed by all who

knew him.
