Today makes 1 week since you were taken too soon. I am still trying to remember all the great times we all had together. You, Cody, Cara and I were probably the most known twins to ever walk the halls of Woodlawn. You will be greatly missed by so many, but I know you will live on through so many lives that you touched. You were a great friend, Thank you!
Cody and Ryan, I still pray for y'all as well as your parents and families that y'all will find a piece of mind over this tragedy. But remember Cory is a true guardian angel to y'all as well as all of the bullriders and bullfighters that step into the arena. Cody, remember what I told you, you and Cory knew each other before the world knew "The Casto Twins" that bond will always be there no matter what.

I am so sorry for your loss. I want you to know Cory was always fun to be around. We spent many a weekend at rodeos while Cory fought the bulls and my ex-husband, Ricky Barnes, rode the bulls. Men enjoy your rides in Heaven!

Cody Casto & Family:
It is often said, "Cowboys are of a different breed..." and I believe that to be true. They are of a unique breed - filled with conviction, honor, perseverance, courage, respect, and a strength far beyond the realm of any measure of comparison. I also believe this worthy of being stated: "COWBOY PROTECTION" is just as essential to the sustainment of the great sport of Bullriding, as are the men who choose to spend their time in the arena, on the backs of - rather than on the ground...in extremely close proximity...oftentimes, eye to eye & shoulder to shoulder...with 1500 lbs of pure muscle, intent on leaving the arena - by whichever means necessary...and, just as it is, with anything else in life, there are those who "do" to bring glory to themselves, and there are those who "do" because they were blessed with a gift & a talent...a desire to give, and to help others. We, as well as countless others I am sure, have always perceived you and Cory to be the latter...
Yes, Cowboys ARE of a different breed...and Cowboys who step into the arena for all intents and purposes of PROTECTING other Cowboys - risking their own lives in order to do so... Well, I just don't think that there are enough words to properly convey such honor, integrity, courage, and selflessness - as would be needed to describe BULLFIGHTER...so today, we just use two that fit the bill, perfectly: CORY CASTO
Cody, our hearts are so heavy...and we're praying for you and the rest of your family.
Cory's legacy will live on in your heart, as well as in the hearts of all, who's lives he touched. May he rest in peace...until we all meet again...
With love and sympathy,
Trish & Louis Bayhi

Growing up down the street I always got to see his smiling face getting on the bus, aggravating us to make us laugh. It's been many years but I know how kind hearted he was. I'm truly sorry for your loss. Mr. & Mrs. Casto, Cody & the rest of the Casto fmly, know he's smiling down at u, especially when ur thinking of great memories together.

It saddened me to hear that another of our class mates has gone. It seems like a lifetime ago of memories that have him in them. To Cody and all of the Casto family I am so sorry for your loss. He is gone, but defiantly not forgotten. RIP Cory

I met Cory Casto one night at a rodeo I was fighting an when I saw him he was smiling ear to ear. I talked to Cory until the bullriding started an before I walked in the arena he told me. Don't try to impress anybody but yourself. An ever since then everytime I go to fight bulls that pops in my head. For the time that I knew Cory I learned that he wasnt scared of anything an he'd do anything to help anybody. Seemed like he was always smiling an laughing an he seemed to always keep me laughing. Even tho he is gone he will never be forgotten he was a great man an one of the greatest people you would ever meet. Fly high Cory Casto. Prayers go out to the family.

Steve and Donna, I can't imagine the hurt of losing a child. That's so unnatural to have a child precede a parent in death. God is all sufficient, and He will be with you during this difficult time. Rest in Him. My prayers are with your family.

I was so heartbroken to learn about Cory. Cory gave me many laughs and challenges when he was one of my students. I still have pictures of him and Cody in the clowns outfit and the precious gift he gave me one Christmas. Cory was one of my favorites. How could he not be? He stood out way above so many others in this world. I have often thought of him over the years with fond memories. I love Cory and I will miss him.

Love and miss you Cory. You were a great person with the BIGGEST heart of any person I know. You and Cody are very special to our family and always will be. Watch over Shelby in the arena like you would've done Saturday night. I know the cowboys that have went to heaven before you are rejoicing for now they have a bullfighter they can have for their own. See you soon Cory.
