I would like to express my deepest and heartfelt condolences to the family of Vitro Castellano. I am truly sorry for the lost that your family is feeling. Experiencing the lost of a beloved family member is one of the hardest things that any of us can go thru. And because of that my thoughts and prayers are with your family. Take comfort in knowing that God never intent for us to deal with sickness or death. But have assure in the wonderful promise that God holds out to us. He promise each of us that very soon he is going to reunite us back with all those love ones we have lost. (John 5:28,29) Until that time, cherish all the wonderful memories that you have of Mr. Vito. These precious memories will console the family in the day’s ahead.
