Jesus Manuel Castillo Casillas passed away December 31, 2019 due to liver cancer. He was born December 16, 1958  . He was born in Juncos Puerto Rico to Jose Antonio and  Maria Lucia Casillas. He was one of 10 boys and 4 sisters. 

A few words from his daughter Ivelisse Sierra goes as follows,

"I love you DAD!! Rest in peace Every time I hear a big bird squawking I will think of you, since you always love imitating the sounds of the wild... Lol and you always sounded just like a  hawk, eagle or falcon. Lol Rico/ Chewy or J. Some of the many Nick names people had known u as! Loved it especially Rico abbreviated for Puerto Rico. Dad I was and am so proud of you getting sober. You were an amazing man and you lived your life just the way you wanted! All the way till the end. I hope you're at peace and know that I always told people that my dad could fix anything! Even a car that had not started up for 20 years. I always admired you for your skills. You will truly be missed. Rest in peace my dad."

He is survived by his daughter's Ivelisse Sierra, Tina Castillo and his two stepchildren Nayda Escalera and Robert Duckworth. Although his disease had been worsening his death came sooner than expected. His last wish was to be buried, his daughters have looked into the least expensive route, still totaling up to $10,000. Losing a loved one is never easy, but not knowing how to bury them is worse. Time is ticking and the sooner we can lay him to rest the better. His daughter Ivelisse Sierra will be in charge of the final expenses. No donation is too small. Please share.
