Jorge Castro Mulero

Jorge Castro Mulero, age 58, of Aberdeen, MD, passed away on April 18, 2012 at Charlotte Hall Veterans Home in Charlotte, MD. Born in San Juan, Puerto Rico, he was the son of the late Sergio and Blanca Amelia Castro Mulero. A career soldier and caring leader, he was an Explosive Ordinance Disposal Specialist for the Army and honorably completed 14 years of service, having served in such places as Korea and Germany. He grew up in Hunt's Point in the Bronx, New York and was an avid sports fan that loved his Giant's, Jets, Rangers and especially his Yankees. He enjoyed reading the newspaper and playing cards. He never strayed far from his native roots. He loved his rice and beans, coffee and often sang his favorite salsa tunes while at work or while dancing with one of his daughters. He was a great dancer!

Mr. Mulero is survived by his son, Jose M. Pinott of Columbia, PA; daughters, Annette S. Rodriguez of Aberdeen, MD and Joannie I. Hyden of Glen Burnie, MD; grandchildren, Anora J. Rodriguez, Anelise S. Rodriguez and Josiah J.P. Rodriguez; many brothers and sisters; and lifelong friend and soul mate, Ani S. Makell.
