Mr. Jeffrey Thomas Sartin, of Dyersburg, passed away Saturday, October 18, 2025 at West Tennessee Healthcare-Jackson General Hospital. Jeff was born April 3, 1954 and was raised in Lenox, TN, a community that was a special place to his family. He was a graduate of Dyersburg High School in 1972 and attended Dyersburg State Community College. His love of agriculture and supporting local farmers led him to work in sales for Wynnburg Tractor Co., and the John Deere dealers in Dyersburg: Ozment Equipment, AgCenter and Tennessee Tractor, until his retirement. His experience and outgoing personality were a good fit as he worked with DeWitt Auction Co. for the last ten years. He also owns and operated the Lenox Store for a period of time, a fixture and gathering spot, in that community. Jeff was a charter member of Three Oaks Baptist Church in Dyersburg.

Jeff is survived by his wife, of 50 years, Judy Blackwood Sartin, his daughter, Jennifer Criswell and husband, Gary, his sons Brian Sartin and wife, Beverly and John Scott Sartin and wife, Julie, his brother Steve Sartin and wife, Sabrina. He was greatly loved as "Papaw" and "Paps" by his grandchildren; Kaitlyn Hagood and husband, Taylor, John Colby Sartin, Thomas Sartin, Ryan Sartin and Hollon Sartin and his great-grandchildren Hudson, Hayden and Hendon Hagood. He is preceded in death by his parents, Harold and Alice Sartin and a brother Harold A. Sartin.

Visitation will be held from 5:00 until 8:00 p.m. on Tuesday, October 21, 2025 at Three Oaks Baptist Church. Funeral services will be held at the church at 12:00p.m. on Wednesday, October 22, 2025 conducted by Rev. Tyler Childress. Interment will follow in Fairview Cemetery in Dyersburg.
