Who is Ricardo Castillion?
RICARDO CASTILLÓN released “Nueva Fusion” under independent label “Pueblo Entertainment Records,” on May 28, 2007. Produced by Ricardo Castillón, Adam Vargas, and Manuel Garza, with a fierce new sound of mariachi sounding trumpets along with cumbia-style percussive rhythms, hot guitar licks, screechy flashy trumpet solos, accordion infusions, and Latin hip-hop grooves. The new single entitled “Tambalea” was well received in Mexico as of April 16, 2007 opening new venues and was released on May 14, 2007 in the U.S. by Monitor Latino.
After not touring since 2001, Ricardo anxiously calls back his old band “La Diferenzia.” A powerhouse touring band including Adam Vargas, Val Maltos, Sinuhe Aussenac, Mike Macias, Ross Vialpando, Edward Hernandez, Cesar C . Sanchez and Steve Sanchez.
“It’s like we never stopped playing. It’s just a “New Fusion,” Ricardo said.

My Hand ¿Qué pasó?
So! Where did Francois le Serpent come from? That’s the name the teens gave to my splint on their retreat last weekend.
I was in Jesuit Hall helping to close up from Los Quetzales’ practice. I noticed a window open and went to close it. I then tripped over a table on the floor, throwing myself toward the window. As I recall the right hand went for the window sill while my left hand went through one of the panes of glass. The rest happened rapidly!
Sergio Ledezma, one of the dancers, immediately was on me using his bandana to make a tourniquet putting pressure with his hand and my hand on the wound and calling for help from Jaime Carrasco, their director. He then was directing someone else to get towels and wash clothes from their bags to help stop the fountain of blood.
All the while he was directing the action, Sergio was escorting me out of the building and informed Jaime Garcia that he was driving us to the hospital.
We arrived at Del Sol ER, and a firefighter came to Sergio’s assistance in attempting to stop the blood flow. After several hours, I was admitted and received surgery the next day to repair the artery in the left hand. Dr. Pedro Chavez was the surgeon.
Who is Sergio Ledezma? He’s a 20 year old first year student at EPCC — and born leader! Thanks Sergio!
I saw Dr. Chavez last Monday and will see him tomorrow and on July 6th. The splint will stay on until the 6th. Then he will do a lesser wrap.
Dr. Chavez says I cut the artery and a nerve right at the carpel tunnel. The nerve will take a year to grow back the length of the hand, and that I will need some form of therapy.
Thank you all for your prayers and concern for me and my health. I find that even though it is a hand wound that I have been tire. There seems to be better stamina as the hand recoups. Everything does require a bit more time as I now have but one functioning hand. And more than pain as such, it is more a sense of fatigue with hand being restricted to one position. The muscles are not happy!
The biggest gratitude goes toward Sergio Ledezma for his quick response and Jaime Garcia, Jaime Carrasco and the other members of Los Quetzales for their quick response and assistance! ¡Les agradezco
muchísimo!
fr. Charles
