Steve was known for his dedication to family, friends, and the community. He began his career at Bell Refinery in Ardmore, OK and later moved to Bonham. Fannin County was home to Steve, and he loved the small-town feel, where everyone knew everyone. After working for Bell Refinery, Steve turned to trucking and started 4C Power Units Trucking Co. in Savanna, OK. Steve loved his employees and took great pride in making lifelong friends in the industry.
In his free time, Steve had a passion for hunting and fishing. His true love came when he purchased his first Harley Davidson motorcycle. His long hair soon followed and when you heard “Born to be Wild” and those loud pipes you knew that Steve was close. Riding his motorcycle brought him endless amounts of joy and freedom. There was nothing better than a beautiful day spent on the Harley. Family was at the heart of Steve. His favorite times were spent having his family around the table sharing a meal he had cooked for them. Dessert was often his home-made ice cream. Steve was a simple man having excelled at the art of leaning on a pick-up truck under a shade tree. Often the best conversations came under those trees.
Steve’s legacy will live on in the hearts of his three children, Amanda (Mandi), Travis, and Trent. Please join the Castleberry family on Friday, March 21, 2025, at 2:00 p.m. for a celebration of life at Wise Funeral Home Chapel. The visitation will start two hours prior at 12:00 p.m.; the family knows that there will be many stories and memories shared so they have allotted extra time for this gathering.
He is preceded in death by, father, James A. Castleberry, and grandchildren, Hagen and Wesley.
