|
WHEREAS, The tragic passing of Symon Castillo of Ennis on |
|
July 5, 2017, at the age of 22, has brought a heartbreaking loss to |
|
the family and friends of this beloved young man; and |
|
WHEREAS, Born on June 10, 1995, to Nate Castillo and Emma |
|
Castillo, Symon Castillo grew up with the companionship of his two |
|
sisters, Timpestt and Tatum, and two brothers, R. J. and Channing; |
|
he attended Ennis High School and went on to work as a mechanic at |
|
Dart Container Corporation, where he shared a bond of camaraderie |
|
with his fellow crew members; and |
|
WHEREAS, Fun-loving and full of life, Mr. Castillo enjoyed |
|
playing softball and baseball, and he deeply treasured the time he |
|
spent with his family and friends; he had a radiant smile that |
|
reflected his kind, generous heart, and he inspired those around |
|
him with his humble nature and his genuine concern for others; these |
|
traits led him to make the compassionate decision to register as an |
|
organ donor, and this selfless act ultimately helped several |
|
individuals, including his own father, who had been on a waiting |
|
list for a kidney transplant; and |
|
WHEREAS, Although his journey on this earth ended far too |
|
soon, Symon Castillo made a profound and unforgettable impression |
|
on countless people, and they will forever treasure their memories |
|
of the happy times spent in his company; now, therefore, be it |
|
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 85th Texas |
|
Legislature, 1st Called Session, hereby pay tribute to the memory |
|
of Symon Castillo and extend deepest condolences to the members of |
|
his family: to his mother, Emma Castillo; to his father, Nate |
|
Castillo, and stepmother, Cindy Castillo; to his siblings, Timpestt |
|
Castillo, Tatum Gallardo and her husband, Tito, R. J. Martinez, and |
|
Channing Castillo; to his "Momo," Rachel Cervantes; to his |
|
grandparents, Richard and Lucy Castillo; to his uncles and aunts, |
|
Oscar and Samantha Cervantes, Arnold Cervantes, Roland Cervantes, |
|
Sammy and Patricia Cervantes, Monica Castillo and Danny Palmer, |
|
Lisa Castillo and Chris Jennings, and Roland Castillo; and to his |
|
other relatives and friends; and, be it further |
|
RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be |
|
prepared for his loved ones and that when the Texas House of |
|
Representatives adjourns this day, it do so in memory of Symon |
|
Castillo. |
