Keeping my cousins, The De Leon Family in my Prayers during this very difficult time in the loss of a great man "Porky" my cousin, who was the life of the party and had a heart of gold.
We will miss his visits to Weslaco. I'm sure he is rejoicing in Heaven with all our relatives and keeping them on their toes, especially my Mom, Isabel De Leon Castro who loved him like a brother. Rest in Peace Porky !! This is not goodbye, it's see you again soon . Hector Castro

Tia Mely and family we would like to express our condolences to you all. This is another big loss for our family, My mom always had good things to say about the family she grew up with and she loved them so much, I wish God had granted us the ability to be closer to you all, but as you all know God has a plan for us all and in the end we will see each other again. Love and Kisses from us over here in Madera California. You all are in our prayers.

To an extremely sweet family - I am so sorry to hear of your great loss and feel blessed to have known your Pops and spent time with him on several occasions. He was and will always remain a sweet, vibrant personality with a contagious sense of humor. I'm sure he's up there cracking jokes and razzing on folks. To everyone who remains down here, my thoughts are with you - it's so difficult when you suddenly find yourself without such a rock in your life, but we really aren't in charge of the ways of the universe, and we really all will carry on in the way life has been intended for us. Much love and many blessings.
