Devota June Stufflebeam

Devota June Stufflebeam passed away peacefully, surrounded by her loving family, on Wednesday, November 11, 2026, at the age of 79. A devoted wife, loving mother, and cherished grandma, June lived a beautiful life rooted in faith, family, and love. Her greatest joy was being surrounded by the people she loved, sharing laughter, making memories, and creating a home filled with warmth and lasting traditions.

June was born on June 1, 1947, in Wetumka, Oklahoma, to Edgar and Gladys (Brown) Young. She graduated from Wetumka High School and continued her education at Central State University, now known as the University of Central Oklahoma, where she earned a Bachelor of Science in Education. It was during a campus church service that June met Les, the young man who would become the love of her life. What began with a simple invitation to share a Coke soon blossomed into a beautiful love story between two soulmates. They were married on June 7, 1969, in Edmond, Oklahoma, beginning a lifelong journey filled with love, devotion, partnership, and the life they would build together.

Over the years, June was a public school teacher, postal service mail carrier, and Vice President of Niles Transportation. Niles Transportation was founded in 1989 and together they built a successful trucking business that operated for 32 years. Their partnership extended far beyond business; it was a reflection of the commitment, teamwork, and devotion that defined their life together.

June's love for the Lord was at the center of her life and guided the way she loved and cared for others. She and Leslie had been members of Faith Church since 2006, where she was actively involved in the church family and worship team. Her faith was more than something she believed; it was something she lived each day. Music was another special part of her life. She especially loved singing with her family quartet, bringing together two of her greatest joys: her faith and the people she loved.

June also had a love for traveling and treasured the memories made on trips to Branson, Destin, and Alaska. An enthusiastic University of Oklahoma fan and longtime season ticket holder, she never missed an opportunity to cheer on the Sooners. She found just as much happiness in life's simple pleasures, whether curled up with a good book, enjoying her favorite music, or spending time tending to her beloved flower beds.

Some of June's most treasured moments were found in the kitchen around the family table. She had a special gift for bringing everyone together through food and the love that went into preparing it. Her famous Sunday meatloaf and pot roast were family favorites, while her peach cobbler and Thanksgiving pecan pies became traditions everyone looked forward to. For June, those meals were about so much more than food. They were about gathering together, sharing stories, laughing, and making memories that would last a lifetime. Those are moments her family will hold close forever.

Her three grandchildren, Emilie, Allie, and Rylie, were among the greatest blessings of her life. She loved each of them dearly, and being their grandma brought her immeasurable happiness. They held a very special place in her heart, and the love, warmth, and memories she shared with them will remain a treasured part of her legacy.

June will be remembered with deep love for her unwavering faith, her devotion to Les, the beautiful life they built together, and the unconditional love she gave her family. She leaves behind a legacy that cannot be measured in years or accomplishments, but in the lives she touched, the traditions she created, and the countless ways she made those around her feel loved.

She was preceded in death by her beloved husband, Les Stufflebeam; her parents, Edgar and Gladys Young; and her siblings, Ernest Young, Othel Young, Howard Baldwin, and Maedean Byrd.

Her love and legacy will live on through her children, Kevin Stufflebeam (wife Katherine) and Kim Withrow (husband Pat); her grandchildren, Emilie, Allie, and Rylie Stufflebeam; her surviving siblings; and numerous nieces, nephews, extended family members, and dear friends who held a special place in her heart.

Though she will be deeply missed, her family will continue to find pieces of her everywhere: in a familiar song, around the dinner table, in a garden full of blooming flowers, and in the laughter and love shared among generations. The memories she created and the love she gave will live on in the hearts of her family and friends forever.
