Uncle Roy,
You will be forever missed by so many but it's comforting to think of how you will be reunited with grandma and grandpa in heaven. The things I remember most are you teasing me about being so skinny. You used to always say I would have to run around the shower to get wet! Haha and you very rarely called me by my first name so I always knew who was calling me. May you rest in peace my uncle.

Brother , I remember all the crazy times we did growing up. Playing "spoons" and laughing so hard we couldn't get the darn spoon. (Mom would always come around the corner to see what was so funny) and we would crackup again...I remember the "original" Castillo stroll that only you could do. None of us did it the same way. But..Most of all I remember your love and those wonderful memories will help us thru the grief. I love you and will never forget you.
Your , Sister

Brother, I remember all the crazy things we did together. Playing Spoons at the kitchen table and laughing so hard we couldn't get the darn spoon. I remember your "original" Castillo stroll..it was your dance and no one could master it but you. I remember your crazy sense of humor, but most of all I remember your love. You are now watching us from Heaven and we are left with wonderful memories that will make us smile even thru our grief. Rest in Peace my brother. I love you and will never forget you. Your Sis....
