James Stephen Castor, of Ventura, CA passed away on Tuesday, September 8, 2020 after a long battle with cancer.
James, who is known as Jim or Jimmy to his family and friends, was the youngest of the five Castor children born to Sanders and Margaret.
Jimmy enjoyed watching sports and hanging out with his two best friends, Paul and Juan. He had a very witty sense of humor and could make an entire room laugh. Jimmy absolutely loved and cherished his family and friends. He was known for never forgetting a birthday or anniversary and showed this by always sending letters or silly cards. Jimmy would do anything for those he loved. His presence and spirit will be greatly missed.
James is preceded in death by his parents, Sanders and Margaret Castor, his older brothers, Robert and Edward (Mike) Castor and two of his nephews, Matthew and Nicholas Castor. James is survived by his two older sisters, Margaret Diaz and Catherine Solis and brother-in-law, Ralph Solis.
