Rafael Antonio Gonzalez-Castro began his earthly sojourn on the 22nd of October, 1961. In Costa Rica, he was born, and we are here today because on the 27th of July, 2023, in Duncan, South Carolina, he finished his course.
Rafael Antonio Gonzalez-Castro was a beloved figure in the lives of his wife, Maria Lucidia, his children Katerine, Lucila, David, Pablo, Cindy, and Patricia Jaramillo, his sons-in-law Elvin Sanchez, Dustin Reagan, and countless others whose lives he touched.
A simple, humble man yet a dynamo fuelled by his faith and commitment to his craft, he was an electrician by trade. A beacon for his family, showing the path of service and humility through his work.
His embrace of life was infectious, and he found true joy in the simplest of pleasures. Tilling the earth, camping under the stars, and tender moments watching movies with his beloved family. Having lived a life filled with love, kindness, and grace, he leaves behind a powerful example. Amen.
