Emilio Castro, 23, of West Bend was born to eternal life on Wednesday, December 6, 2017. He was born on April 2, 1994 in 29 Palms MCAS, CA, the dear son of Julio G. Castro and Maria Miller (nee Stockfish). Emilio graduated from West Bend East in 2012. Emilio loved being outside, spending time in the U.P. with his family, fishing with his grandpa, snowboarding, and ATVing. He especially enjoyed playing disc golf with his friends.
