Timothy D. Castelejo
Timothy D. Castelejo,
age 36, passed away peacefully at his home on
August 17, 2026.
Born on September 14, 1989, in New Bedford, Massachusetts, he was the son
of Wendy Tomkiewicz and the late Joseph A. Castelejo.
Timothy had a deep passion for cars, especially Honda Civics, and shared a
love for Porsches with his daughter. He enjoyed working on cars with his
brother and was instrumental in helping him launch his automotive business.
He also took his nephew, Draven, under his wing during Draven’s father’s
deployments, teaching him how to fix bicycles and inspiring him to become a
mechanic. Timothy loved listening to music, taking joy rides, and attending
school events with his goddaughter, Hayley. Above all, his daughter was the
center of his universe.
He is survived by his mother, Wendy (Frank) Tomkiewicz of Maine; his
daughter, Desiree Castelejo; his sister, Bobbi Anne, and her husband
Raymond Cabral; his brother, Joseph, and his wife Nicole Castelejo of
Massachusetts, and his stepfamily, Gabriel, Shelby, and Frankie Tomkiewicz,
along with their families and children. He is also survived by his nephew,
Draven Cabral & family; his goddaughters, Hayley Cabral (and fiancé
Grady Helmer), Kenzie, Keagan, and Keira Castelejo, Hannah W. and Clayton
B., his maternal grandmother, Carol Cornell; his paternal aunt, Barbara A.
Mello; his maternal aunt and godmother, Candy Alfonzo; and many beloved
cousins and friends.
Timothy was predeceased by his father, Joseph; his ex-fiancée, Paige
Burell; and his paternal grandmother, Gloria.
Services will be held privately by the family, and he will be laid to rest
alongside his father, Joseph.
