"Castro Convertibles" Castros???

I am trying to find info about the Castro's that started the "Castro Convertibles" furniture chain. This is what I know:
Bernard Castro dob 08/11/1904 dod 08/24/1991 arrived in NY from Italy (sicily) 1919, married Theresa (from McKeesport, PA), had duaghter Bernadette (now running NYC parks) & son Bernard Jr (deceased 1974) This part of the family was easy to figure out- Bernard (senior) had at least one brother- Carmelo- born 05/16/1907 in Siciliy I believe. Carmelo (dod 08/02/1995) was my grandfather. I think Carmelo arrived in NY around 1922 (give or take a year) Carmelo married Barabra, who I think was Theresa's sister (my gramdmother). Carmelo & Barbara eventually ended up in Florida by the 1970's. They had 3 kids- Carl, Rosemary & John (my father).
I am trying to find out more about Bernard & Carmelo's family from Italy/Sicily (their parents names, if there were any other brothers/sisters, cousins etc...) also- would be intrested in info about currently living relatives as well. Thanks alot!!
