I know Jose Castro through only a handful of loving stories told to me by David, but, from those, I know he was loving, loyal and strong. May you, his family, keep his memory forever in your hearts.

A sorrowful day. Enjoyed being together with Sr. Castro at Jesse and Rachel's wedding. He and Amalia were an example for us all.
