Joe H. Castro, 73 of Newcastle, died Tuesday, September 10, 2013 at his home. He was born November 7, 1939 in Pleasanton, Texas to Frank V. and Julia (Garcia) Castro. Joe worked in public relations for OU for 31 + years until his retirement and was Christian in faith. In his spare time, he enjoyed his horses, fishing, and cooking barbecue. His hobby of cooking barbecue grew in to a business, and he owned and operated Smokin' Joe's BBQ in Noble for many years. He loved joking around with everyone he met. He had an infectious laugh and a smile that would light up a room. Joe loved his family and took great pride in raising his four children and being the best father he could be. His greatest enjoyment came from spending time with his children and grandchildren.
He was preceded in death by his parents; two sisters, Herlinda Figueroa and Mary Ortega; and four brothers, Albert, Louis, Elias, and Moses Castro.
Joe is survived by three daughters, Mary Anderson and her husband, Terry, of Edmond, Diana Rogers and her husband, Willard, of Yukon, and Rose Johnston of Hugo, Colorado; one son, Frank Castro of Noble; five grandchildren, Ashley Page and her husband, Kody, of Edmond, Jay Lundy of Los Angeles, California, Cassie Secrest and her husband, Scott, of Houston, Texas, Matthew Rogers and his wife, Mariela, of Edmond, and Briauna Castro of Noble; two great granddaughters, Lela and Ava Page of Edmond; two sisters, Abbie Robles of Del Rio, Texas, and Rosa Castro of San Antonio, Texas; and many other loved ones and friends.
The family would like to give a special thank you to Joe's caregiver, Thelma, and her family for taking such good care of him. A celebration of Joe's life will be held at a later date. Cremation arrangements are under the direction of Eisenhour Funeral Home of Blanchard. In lieu of flowers, memorial donations may be made to the Muscular Dystrophy Association in Joe's name.
