Lety was born on December 15, 1969, in San Angelo, Texas, to Alicia Ramirez Castillo and Joe C. Castillo Jr. Shortly after her birth, the family moved to Fort Worth, Texas where they remained lifelong residents. She graduated from Trimble Tech High School, and she later earned a Bachelor of Science degree from Texas Wesleyan University.
Lety met the love of her life, Mauro Cisneros, and they were married on June 9, 2001. She became a devoted mother to Lilliana and then was blessed with the arrival of Mauro, Jr. “MJ.”
Lety was accomplished and dedicated to her work. She made enduring friendships while working at the Law Offices of Tom Hall, the office of David S. Baggett, CPA and then in the legal department of Alcon Laboratories. In 2011, Lety decided to leave her employment at Alcon to become a stay‑at‑home mom, a role she relished.
Lety had many interests in life. She loved to travel. She was an avid fan of the Dallas Cowboys, and she never met a dance floor she did not love. Yet, the love and focus of her life were her husband, Mauro, and their two children, Lilliana and MJ. In January 2019, Lety was diagnosed with breast cancer, and she fought for her life like a true warrior until her passing. In spite of her illness, Lety was always positive, rarely complained and she remained unwavering in her faith.
Lety was a wonderful mother, wife, daughter, sister and treasured friend to many. She will be forever remembered for her kindness, generosity, boisterous laugh and amazing smile. Lety was truly beautiful – inside and out. She will be terribly missed by all who knew her; however, her shining spirit will remain in our hearts forever.
She was preceded in death by her father, Joe C. Castillo Jr.
Lety is survived by her loving husband, Mauro; their children, Lilliana and MJ; her mother, Alicia Castillo; her sister, Patricia Castillo; numerous aunts, uncles, cousins, nieces and nephew, and countless friends.
The family would like to extend their gratitude to Dr. Prasanthi Ganesa, Chaney Grunow, P.A., the staff at The Center for Cancer and Blood Disorders and VITAS Inpatient Hospice Unit at Baylor Scott & White Hospital for their exceptional care and compassion.
