In loving memory of Leonardo Castro

We sadly lost Leonardo Castro (83) this past Tuesday. He passed away at his home in San Diego after battling a chronic illness for the past few years. He leaves behind his loving wife who was his childhood sweetheart, Julita and six beautiful children, Leona, Edward, Abraham, Mary Lou, Henry and Leonardo Jr. He joins his second oldest child Leonard in heaven.

Every person who knew Leonardo was touched by him, and he was a best friend to anyone he's crossed path with: from stranger ; passerby, as a son; brother, to life-long friends, as a husband and father, and as an honored retired Navy Veteran. You've never wanted to smile faster or hug harder than when spending time with Leonardo. His smile was infectious and could light up any room he walked into. For his family, there was no better dad, husband, brother, uncle, grandfather and great grandfather. He was a leader in his community, attending Mass every Sunday, volunteering and working at the Guam club and aiding hospital cleanups.

Our family faces many challenges making arrangements during this time due to COVID-19 as we are having to limit funeral arrangements and celebrations to immediate family members which is limited to 10 people only. It is with great sadness that we cannot celebrate such an amazing man like Leonardo in traditional large funeral gatherings. With loving hearts, we ask for any kind donations or memories of Leonardo Castro. This will serve as our platform for donations, since we currently cannot accept any donations at the time of the funeral. Any memories, will be cherished and shared among the Castro family.

Thank you for your donations and memories. God Bless.
