Banking

In Latin, Astra means the stars. The staff of Astra Bank has been helping people reach for the stars since 1911. We think this name is very appropriate for a bank that has a deep commitment to our customers’ success.

Beginning with G. Walter Boyles in 1929, our local family ownership spans three generations. His vision of helping our customers achieve their financial goals by providing safe and sound banking services will continue for generations.

Though much has changed since 1911, the employees, directors and owners of Astra Bank still believe that honesty, trust, loyalty, professionalism, teamwork and positive attitude are the best way to build enduring and mutually beneficial relationships with our customers and communities.

Enabling the dreams of our customers to become a reality has always been at the forefront of Astra Bank’s mission. Innovative financial products combined with a staff that provides friendly service and a family ownership group that is committed to the success of our customers creates an atmosphere that is unique when compared to other financial institutions.

Because Astra Bank is a bank that highly values the communities it serves, it reinvests in these communities through the volunteer efforts of its employees and the financial contributions of the bank. Local health care advisory boards, churches, schools and economic development organizations are just some of the many places that these contributions from Astra Bank may be seen.

Our roots are deep within our communities and our commitment to service is deeper. Deep Roots. Deeper Commitment.
