~✾~An amazing son ~ brother ~ friend ~ will be forever loved and remembered~✾~

Benjamin Isaac Castañeda died after being involved in a Thanksgiving Day auto accident. A woman has been charged with Intoxication Manslaughter after driving the wrong way on the freeway and hitting several vehicles. Two other individuals were injured in the crash.

Family states that Ben was an amazing young man ~ full of life and joy ~ with an amazing heart and beautiful smile. Friends say that he lit up the room.

Ben had a love for music. The seventeen-year-old began playing the violin in 6th grade. He had big dreams in pursuing a Mariachi career ~ as a violinist and as a singer. The violin will never again be played by the hands of its master. Ben's voice ~ on earth ~ is forever silent.

Monday, December 2nd, brought students, friends, and family together at North Side High School at a vigil for this beloved teenager. The school's Espuelas de Plata Mariachi Band ~ with tears in their eyes ~ played and sang from their hearts in honor of their friend and fellow band member. In unison, the crowd said "We love you Ben" as purple balloons were released into the Texas night sky.

In life, Ben was a giver ~ In death, he was a giver of life. Several individuals were recipients of his organs.

Ben's parents and three younger sisters (he has another sibling due to arrive any day) will forever cherish the memory of their son and brother. He will always live in a pocket of their hearts.
