Guadalupe was a beautiful soul; she was inspired by so many things and took joy in all that life had to offer. Truly, she was a connoisseur of the arts, whether that be classical music, visual arts or literature. As a teacher and sculptor of young minds, she had a love for learning, spending most of her time nurturing that love by reading everything that she could get her hands on. She read anything from the newspaper to novels. Enjoying a good story, Guadalupe was also fond of going to the cinema and catching a movie from time to time. Lastly, it could be said that Guadalupe loved the culinary arts. She loved good food, a great meal shared with those whose company she enjoyed; she was especially fond of her fried plantains!

She loved her family and friends, fiercely, and will be remembered always for her loyalty and dedication to them.

Guadalupe Castellanos-Zelaya will be dearly missed by all who love her; affectionately sharing the story of her life that she cultivated so delicately.
