He was the son of J. Ramón Sevilla Castellón and wife Dolores Sacasa Sacasa, first-cousing of Juan Bautista Sacasa Sacasa and Benjamin Lacayo Sacasa, 63rd and 69th presidents of Nicaragua respectively. Dolores was the daughter of Antioco Sacasa Sarria, brother of Roberto Sacasa Sarria, 44th and 46th President of Nicaragua. Also, her great-uncle was Vicente Cuadra Lugo, 38th President of Nicaragua.
Known as the "world's most decorated ambassador", he was a judge and president of the lower chamber of National Congress of Nicaragua.[4] He also served as Ambassador to the U.S. for 36 years under eight American Presidents and eleven Secretaries of State, a singularly unique and unprecedented achievement, unmatched to this day.
